If anyone is interested. I got some cheap kitchen cabinet feet off Amazon and shoved them on a bit of MDF for now. It's slightly smaller than the case so you don't even see it. Total cost about £8. A local kitchen shop has offered be some decent solid wood offcuts which I can get in the new year so I may grab some of that an make something less ghetto.

Which should I get? (Mice and Keyboards)

I use a K95 with browns. I would happily recommend the K95 but the K70 is pretty much the same design minus the G keys. Corsair's support is pretty decent from my experience.- 7 replies

Scrap that, I just realised yours doesn't have the mode buttons. Probably worth trying to switch it in the software. Also worth checking firmware is up to date. (I'm a K95 owner)

Does it work on all lighting profiles/modes? (The M buttons)

I was hoping to just buy something which doesn't look too bad. Although I could probably just get a nice piece of wood cut somewhere and shove these on it.

I just upgraded to a Phantecks Enthoo EVOLV ATX Tempered Glass from my ancient but solid and reliable CM 690ii. Anyhow, I had to ditch my old desk as my new case doesn't fit on the shelf. My new desk is pretty basic and the case is just sat on the floor. I am wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a riser or some kind of stand which can raise my case off the floor a little. I just want to try and reduce the amount of potential dust getting in as it's on a wooden floor. Thanks! Bonus photos of build attached.

I've actually just got this monitor and watched some HDR demos and it does a pretty decent job. This is compared to an LG OLED I have seen demos on. I wouldn't purchase this monitor purely for HDR though. You'd be better off with a TV. Just FYI this is with HDR enabled on the monitor and in Windows 10

I would shove this right into a 2011 board and open as many tabs as possible.
-
If anyone is curious; I RMA'd the board and got a refund and got the MPOWER Max which is running 100% fine!
-
From what I can see the pins look fine. I've ordered a cheap Gigabyte mobo which should come tomorrow so I can try the processor.
-
I tried with a Corsair CX 750w today which according to the Corsair site is 100% compatible.

Yep everything powers on and everything light's up then it goes off. All within about half a second.
