Asus maximus xi Hero

[shadowj]

I just upgraded the mainboard, CPU and RAM
I connected the 24 pin cable, to the mainboard, and on top, left, another one with 8 pin
There is another slot, with 4 pin, but i don't have this cable, on my power supply Corsair RM 750
Do I need this 4 pin cable, too?
I tried without , but no signal, on the monitor
Could anyone help me, please?
Everything else is properly connected ( gpu, sata, etc )
Thank you
Here is a picture, attached

Saw this post on reddit by an ASUS CS rep, the 8pin alone should work fine although higher OCs will likely need the extra 4pin for stability, so something else must be wrong.

Your PSU only seems to have 3 outputs for either GPU and/or the MB 4/8PINs so...

If your GPU is pulling power only from one cable, if needed, you can utilize the unused slot for another 4+4pin cable. I assume you can probably contact corsair for this.

Either way, your PC SHOULD boot with just the 8pin connected, so again, something is currently wrong with your setup.

So, i don't need to connect another cable, for the 4 pin slot?
I don't want to OC the CPU, maybe in the future
What about the Turbo Boost?
Does it work, without this 4 pin cable?
Thank you

Can't answer for sure, but I'm guessing it should function normally without the additional 4 pin.

I found the culprit.
It was the RAM, i just replace the slot, and everything its working great ( without the 4 pins cable )
The only thing i don't like it , is the CPU cooler. It's a bit louder as before
I have only the web site open ( this forum ) and the cooler is pretty loud, the CPU temps are about 26- 28 C
Is there a way to modify something from the BIOS ?
Thank you

Set the fan speed of the CPU fan in the BIOS.

Thanks, mda
I wonder if the Noctua NH D-15 would be enough for 4,9 GHz OC
I could replace the cooler, with some AiO
What do you mean ??

Yes AiO cooler would be good. Noctua D-15 is too big IMO. Also, its fans look ugly.
But you should make sure you can fit an AiO cooler into your case.
