    Asus Sabertooth Z87 vs Maximus Hero? Are the 35 mm assist fans necessary?

    Alright :) I do think the shield looks like a bit of a gimmick too, which is what makes me a bit reluctant to buy it :) Another option is of course to install the AI Suite 3 package with Fan Xpert 2, which gives full control of the fans - but I'm not sure if this software is reliable or if...

    Asus Sabertooth Z87 vs Maximus Hero? Are the 35 mm assist fans necessary?

    Have you tried see what temps you get without the fans? Do you use the cpu fan headers for fan control? I'm not really sure if the 40% limit is a big problem or not - it seems most PWM fans need 20-30% for lowest RPM - so maybe it won't be so important.. If I went with the Sabertooth I'd...

    Asus Sabertooth Z87 vs Maximus Hero? Are the 35 mm assist fans necessary?

    Hi, I'm trying to decide between the Asus Sabertooth Z87 and the Asus Maximus Hero motherboard, and my worry about the Sabertooth is those two 35 mm assist fans. Should these preferably be running or could I remove them? I'm thinking that the plastic shell "armor" will be a bad thing...

    Zowie EC1 Evo rubber or glossy? White vs black

    Hi again :) I ended up with the black one but I had to return it because I found it really slippery with dry hands. So I'm considering picking up the white version or the new Deathadder. But I am a bit in doubt about how the glossy surface is. How do you think it is on the Zowie in...

    Deathadder 2013 as plug and play without drivers?

    L4d: that sounds good :) its just very confusing that many people say that it does not have onboard memory, I think even razer said that one "benefit" of synapse was that such memory is not needed? It doesn't say anything about onboard memory on their website spec sheet. Perhaps they just...

    Deathadder 2013 as plug and play without drivers?

    It's not really because of the online/offline mode stuff, I would just prefer to keep it simple and don't install too many mouse drivers - I already have the Logitech stuff so I have a feeling I could end up with problems having both this and synapse. Also the stuff I read about synapse...

    Deathadder 2013 as plug and play without drivers?

    Hdriscoll:The abyssus probably got onboard memory so it will remember the settings? I see mixed information about onboard memory on the Deathadder 2013, some say it will remember the last setting of dpi, lights and polling rate - where others say it doesn't have onboard memory so that it...

    Deathadder 2013 as plug and play without drivers?

    Hi, I have been looking at the new Deathadder 2013 but I have been hesitating because of the dependency on the Synapse drivers and lack of onboard memory on the mouse. So my question is if anyone in here is using their Deathadder 2013 without any drivers installed (except for standard windows...

    Zowie EC1 Evo rubber or glossy? White vs black

    Thanks for your reply :) Do you think there is a be significant difference on how the grip is? I'd prefer it to be black just for the looks, and from your description it sounds like the rubber does last quite well so I don't think it would be too much of a problem - but if the glossy finish...

    Zowie EC1 Evo rubber or glossy? White vs black

    Hi, I have sort of decided that my new mouse should be a Zowie EC1 Evo, but I'm unsure if I should pick the glossy version (white) or the rubber coated version (black). Which coating do you think is best and gives the best grip? I read some has been complaining about the black one being...

    Which case fans should I get for my P280?

    I don't think it's as easy as looking at the sound level only with a sound level meter and judging by that - I mean maybe one fan is sounding more annoying than another one even though it got a lower dbA rating - but you may of course still be right :) I also heard that the GT can whine at...

    Which case fans should I get for my P280?

    Okay thanks :) Why do you think that's better? I've seen nothing but positive feedback about using NF-F12 on a H100? :)

    Which case fans should I get for my P280?

    I don't intend using the NF-F12's as case fans but for my H100 cooler :) Another thing is that I saw on a picture that the AC F12 PWM has some system to chain multiple fans on a single 4 pin connector on the motherboard, so that it has an 4 pin input connection, but if I don't need that I...

    Which case fans should I get for my P280?

    Hi again, I was about to order the fans (2x NF-F12 and 3x AC F12 PWM), but I got a little unsure if in case I want to get a fan controller (I'll start without and see how it works), can I connect the F12 PWM fans to it? Most fan controllers seem to use 3 pin connectors, but the F12 PWM is with 4...

    Which case fans should I get for my P280?

    I'm not using splitters - I just connected three fans to three chassis fan headers, I can't remember which numbers though, but I guess that doesn't matter? Two of them gives the rpm reading but not the third - even though it is spinning just fine.. There are 4 chassis fan headers in total on...
