  1. Anyone managed to solve this? Im having the same issue with a rog strix z690 gaming wifi-i. Would really want to make this work, because this fits perfectly.
  2. Hi, I would like to try my luck with this cooler and mobo combo. Since I have an i9 in an ITX case, I would need much cooling performance, but I would mainly buy it in a hope that it would be an ideal fit inside the mobo that is notoriously bad in terms of cooler space. I already have the mobo and I'm using it with an Arctic Liquid Freezer II 280 that barely fit in and bad contact between the board and the aio allows for thermal throttling. Has anybody tried it before? Alternatively, I would be happy for any suggestions on what AIO did actually fit (not just barely) inside that has a cooling capacity that can work with an i9.
  3. Thank you, sounds interesting! I don't have adaptive I think, but I will have to look for it. One more question: do you think that a custom liquid cooling solution would make a meaningful difference given how small the nr200p is? I mean, a difference over using any kind of decent AIO. I would be willing to buy a more expensive solution if it can improve my thermals by, say, ca. 20C, but I doubt that it can have such a huge impact.
  4. I also tried a modest undervolting to no avail, but I'm not experienced at this. How much did you undervolt yours?
  5. It is not the entire backplate, the end is removable so it would fit inside the space created by the thermal shields. There used to be a list with my mobo listed as needing to do this, but I can't seem to find it now. It used to be under this list.
  6. What it should be compatible with: - PSU: Corsair sfx750 - Mobo: asus rog strix z690-i - CPU: intel i9-12900 - Case: nr200p Hi, I assembled the pc parts above and currently I'm using it with an Arctic Liquid Freezer II 280. It barely fits in the case and I have terrible termals when I do a 10 mins cinebench test. Basically, I hit 100 faster than a Tesla Roadster. Given how I had difficulties intsalling the AIO in the first place, I suspect contact issues. When I remove the AIO pump, the remaining TP does not have the typical "evenly spread out" pattern, but rather like "crinkled cloth" (sorry for the bad similes, I have no picture), which I found to be typical of this problem too. I am aware of the partial incompatibility of the mobo and the AIO and proceeded to install it without the backplate. Did anyone manage to get good thermals with a similar setup? Or what AIO did you use for a power hungry i9 in an SFF case? I'm also considering the NZXT x63 280, and it seems the lga1700 support is coming, although not automatically included in the package.
  7. It seems that it was the logitech software I1m using with my headphone. Don't know why it started acting up, but after a reinstall, my sound was working fine again. Just posting here in case somebody has a similar situation.
  8. Well, now I seem to experience sound issues. I could not point out the exact error yet, but speech appears to be distant in videos that previously run fine. Not over the internet, but anything that I play from the machine. Can this happen after a BIOS update? UPDATE It is happening over streaming platform like Netflix, but not through YouTube. Frequency issue maybe?
  9. Thank you, that was it!. Refreshed the bios with the ASUS bios tool and after several restarts during the bios update process, when I chose the xmp profile my ram clocs automatically jumped to 6000 MHz, no further problems.
  10. Additional PC parts: - nr200p with mesch panels - asus rog strix z690 gaming wifi-i - intel i9-12900 - arctic liquid freezer 2 280, with the lower part of the pump removed for compatibility Hi, I bought the ram kit in the title and according to the official specifications, it supports RAM speeds close to 6000 MHz. Mine, however, is stuck at the specified defualt JEDEC speed of 4800 on XMP profile 1. I tried to set it manually, but my PC would not post, even at 5200, so I only tried setting different XMP profiles afterwards. The sticks are stuck at 4800 even at XMP 2 andi Interestingly, I do not see any XMP 3 listed in the motherboard bios (not that it would support 6000 MHz anyway). I set my motherboard to defaults except for the XMP change, same result. Could anybody help me with what am I doing wrong? Next thing I'm going to try is flashing the BIOS for the latest version, but apart from that I'm out of ideas.
  11. Thank you for your helpful comments and suggestions. I contacted ASRock about this and they confirmed that since the CPU requires 202W of power for multi-core performance and this board can only sustain around 150W (and will default back to 120W after a period of maximally 200-ish seconds I think) it is more or less official that the mobo cannot supply my CPU to sustain a multi-core performance around 5GHz under heavy loads. I could probably tweak around a bit more, but I would rather do with something that can actually power the CPU within its specifications. If anyone arrives here out of finding oneself in the same shoes, I received helpful suggestions for this problem over at Intel Reddit. It sucks to pay extra without the need for overclocking, but I will need a strong PC soon and I don't want to get rid of my NR200 itx case.
  12. Define it however you wish, I bought the best non-overclocking intel CPU with the best non-overclocking ITX mobo and I cannot use my i9 for heavy load compilation tasks I bought it specifically for. This is pretty much a case of incompatibility in my eye, even if these parts can technically work together. It makes me even more bitter that this piece of info is never published nor it seems to be reviewed for some reason. I try my luck with a much more expensive Gigabyte Z690I AORUS ULTRA Mini.
  13. Yes, that is my conclusion as well, unfortunately.
  14. Yes, I hope so. Thank you for the help, all of you!
