Hello Any idea how far I could overclock if I had one of the motherboards you consider good?

Hello The Deluxe has supported booting from NVMe drives for quite a while.

Hello Providing an interface material to prevent metal contact of the heatsink/water block with the PCB is the responsibility of the cooler manufacturer. Any product that does not include this type of insulator is junk at best and should be avoided.

Hello Poor advice. If N/A is shown for the ME version in the UEFI there is an issue that needs to be corrected as follows: Fully clear the UEFI and then flash the UEFI using USB BIOS Flashback. If the firmware is still shown as N/A the chip needs flashed using a programmer, a preprogrammed...

Hello Auto routing is normally a means to fast track a layout to a point where the designer can concentrate on the critical aspects of the layout. That you commented and put forth an opinion regarding a field that you obviously have no experience with is not a reason to reply in a derogatory...

Hello Even auto-routing is constraint by specifications. Also at this level of complexity auto-routing is not the final step. Human tweaking is needed for the finished design.

Hello I have been working with the board for a month now. There is no PLX chip under the heatsink. The board supports quad-GPU SLI not 4-way SLI.

Hello There is no PLX chip on the M8E.

Hello The Logitech 3D Extreme Pro Joystick has had issues from release of the Z97 platform onward. The only fix is for Logitech to provide updated firmware that complies with Intel's latest USB specifications or connect the joystick to a non-Intel USB port.

Hello Most Super I/O chips are designed for either NTC or dual current temperature sensors. The majority of PTC thermistors (excluding silistors which are normally more expensive than NTC) work best in designs for over-temperature control such as motors and battery charging.

Hello NTC. Most that are PTC are not suited for this type of application.

Hello Yes, two of those fans can be connected to the same header without issue. Noctua states the included splitter will properly control both connected fans.

Hello Each fan header can support up to 1A max per header.

Hello I use the driver that is downloaded as a Win10 update.

Hello You're welcome. :)
