My monitor was calibrated to my old 5870 and when I put my 670 in and loaded the profile and then did a calibration test the results were no different, meaning both cards are rendering colours exactly the same.

Mine gets to around 70-71c after a few loops of heaven also with auto fan. I think people stating much lower temps have the fans running faster.

Hardocp stated in the review that in the next BIOS update that double clicking to select options would be a thing of the past, it's now been at least 2 BIOS updates since this review and you STILL have to double click to select options, any chance Hardocp would put pressure on MSI to get this...

At my request Scan.co.uk now stock the solid side panel for those people in the UK who want one. http://www.scan.co.uk/products/corsair-cc650d-side-solid-side-panel-for-obsidian-series-650d

Shipping isn't fixed and both a PM and an email to Redbeard have been ignored, for a company that is supposed to have legendary customer service I can't say I'm too impressed.

Does anyone happen to know how much power each channel on the built in fan controller will provide? Would I be fine running 2 Apache blacks off 1 channel? They are rated at like 0.33 amps each.

Is it just me, or isn't there a way to use decent 120mm fans with the built in fan controller? almost all the 120mm fans I'd want to buy have 4 pin plugs, where's the fan controller has 3 pin sockets.

I don't mind moving the HD cage, I more meant in regards to mounting holes lining up etc.

Does anyone know if the 230mm Bitfenix fans will fit in place of the 200mm fans in the Corsair? They apparently shift 115 CFM at 20Db

Or perhaps Corsair just have inflated shipping costs on the website for locations outside of the US, it doesn't cost $40 to ship a single case side panel to the UK.

Any ETA on when shipping is going to be less ridiculous? It's still $70 shipped for a simple side panel right now. It wouldn't be as bad if any retailers stocked the panel but they don't appear to.

Good to hear, thing is I'm from the UK, I would have though shipping to the UK at least would have been sorted a long time ago.

Please could something be done about the cost of shipping outside of the US? I really, really want to have a solid side panel instead of the window, but stuff like this: Just doesn't make it worthwhile, I'm not willing to spend $70 on a side panel and I'm not sure how many people would be.

Do you mean just the cable itself comes out, or do you remove the actual socket itself, I saw that you could take the socket out entirely, but it didn't look like just the cable came out.

How exactly do you remove unwanted wires from the front panel IO? I opened up the front panel IO box and all the wires are soldered to the ports, I thought perhaps they would just unclip but I can't seem to see how. I have a ton of cables that I don't use that I would love to remove.

I didn't get an email saying when it was shipped out, but I finally received my fan controller today and fitted it, no more horrible noise at lower fan speeds. Now if I could get the solid side panel for cheaper than $60 I'd be completely happy with the case.

Anyone receive their fan controller yet? I sent the request for one almost 2 months ago, is that seriously what Corsair call good customer service? :/ You sell a flawed case and then take what I consider a long amount of time to help customers that are having problems. You put up solid side...

Any update regarding the fan controllers? Still not recieved a replacement yet.

I was going to order the side panel, but the shipping is twice the cost of the panel itself which makes it really not cost effective if you live in the UK..

Did the fan controllers come back in yet? Still waiting for one to arrive.

Bumping this. Still not heard or received anything, I bought this case knowing full well the fan controller was flawed because Corsair promised they would help with any issues that customers had, still not been helped..

Any update on when you'll have more of the fan controllers, or when you'll be sending them out, still not received anything and would really love to be able to use my fan controller on my case.

I have no idea when they are going to start sending them out again, I've still not received mine, or had any email contact back from Kelvin. I find it surprising they are able to run out of something that they are constantly making and putting into 'fixed' cases.

How long did it take you guys to receive the linear fan controller? I gave Kelvin my details on the 19th, should I have received it by now, or do I have much longer to wait?

Are the Linear fan controllers still being sent out? I sent an email to Redbeard and received one back from Kelvin requesting my address and such, I answered that and haven't had any communication since, I sent Kelvin an email asking if the controller had been sent or if there was a tracking...

SATA Port0-3 Native Mode on the Gigabyte boards just determines how the board sets the IRQ's for the IDE ports, it doesn't really matter if it's enabled or disabled, but it's best set enabled. It doesn't actually have anything to do with IDE/AHCI at all...

I'd update to F5 since there's been some decent fixes in later bios's. What's the overvoltage LED problem? You're running 1600MHz RAM aren't you? This requires running the voltage at 1.65 which is higher than the default so the LED will light up, that's what should be happening.

I prefer this one myself. Link

Had no problems booting with a 930 using whatever bios the board shipped with.

Radeons have more clock states than Nvidia cards. Idle is 157/300, with dual display it clocks the memory up to 3D clocks to stop the flickering but only clocks the GPU up to 400MHz so stays fairly cool since it doesn't clock up to full 3D clocks. What I don't understand is why Nvidia didn't...

My Gigabyte X58A UDR3 booted with my i7 930 just fine and it was on a bios before the one that they are claiming support, so you should be fine.

It's the shader compiler as previously mentioned, this isn't the only game affected but it's the one showing the problem the most recently. Just Cause 2 is affected too judging by this post from Humus. http://forum.beyond3d.com/showpost.php?p=1396907&postcount=20

The nvidia solution requires you to run 2 video cards in SLI, I'm pretty sure most people would prefer having a DP monitor or an adapter over buying another expensive video card to game on 3 screens.

Just got this motherboard with an i7 930, with Vcore set to auto it sets it to 1.3volts is this normal for i7's with this board?
