It would be super swell to have a small gaming capable machine in the livingroom. I dont want to become a console peasant (((

The headset really seems like a super awesome product, with amazing attention to detail. All the products seem to have a lot of consideration behind the.

Hello! I'm looking for a case that's fully E-ATX compatible, for a dual socket workstation. Which also happens to look good. I've previously used the Chieftec SH-03B, which fits the board perfectly, but leaves a lot to be desired in the looks department. I took a look at the Fractal Design Define XL R2, because I've worked with the regular Define R4 and 5 and been happy with them, but the board actually blocks off most of the cable management ports, making it neigh impossible to get a clean-looking finish. Short of dragging the ATX power cables across the board, I see no way to overcome this. Plus, some of the motherboard mounting holes don't fit. Therefor, I'm asking if any of you have experience in this? I would prefer something simple-looking like the Define or Arc for that matter. It must be able to fit an E-ATX board (305x330mm / 12x13") and still have room left over for cable management. Thanks in advance

Awesome giveaway! I really like the Kühler, because of its radically different looks than the mainstream closed-loop systems, that are available from different manufacturers. The software package also looks interesting.

I would assume the board is defective then. It could still be the CPU, but it happens so rarely that the board is a much safer guess.

Do you have a speaker/buzzer connected to the motherboard? If yes, you can try the following: Turn off the power and remove all of the RAM from the motherboard, switch power back on and turn the machine on. Now, if you get any error beeps, basic motherboard functionality is fine. If you do not get any beeps however, the motherboard could be defective. Remove the cooler and CPU and check if the pins in LGA socket are like they are supposed to be. Observe if there is ANY and I really stress this part, ANY variation in how the pins are aligned. The best way to descripe this, is that there can't be anything that breaks the picture of a perfect layout. If they are all aligned like they are supposed to be, my guess is that the motherboard is DOA.
