I already removed most of the hard drive cage for better airflow to the GPU, but I see your point!

Any specific reason the back fan should be exhaust? Because it has fine air access and what not, if you were thinking it was standing up against the wall.

Hello Linus forums! So my cooling setup is 2 exhaust fans directed through my H100i and out the top of the case and 3 intake fans; 2 front, 1 back. I use Fan Xpert 2 and have noticed that the CPU fans (exhaust) run, at a considerably lower RPM than the case fans (intake). In idle they will be about 260 rpm compared to intake fans being 600-650 rpm. My question now is; should I adjust speed to be more proportionate to each other, or is the fact that the 2 CPU/Exhaust fans run slower than my 3 intake fans not a going to be a potential problem? I haven't had a problem with heat so far, but you never know.

Well I'm pretty much used to the typical gamer headset quality so I don't really have any expectations other than maybe what I've been told. The best headset I have ever owned is probably the Razer Carcharias so I doubt a Sennheiser headset would disappoint compared to that Anyhow your help has been very appreciated, thanks a lot!

Sure sounds fine I think. Also I want to make a small correction. I meant sound card/amp (just whatever might be necessary).

I know this thread kind of died, I just wanted to end it by talking about one last thing: First: I think I might actually go for the G4ME ONE's since I think I'll prefer the open design. Second: If I do run into trouble with the sound, are there any relatively cheap sound cards that would go well with the headset?

Be careful about recommending the G4ME ZERO if people don't have some kind of amp. The headset is seemingly hard to drive and might not work well with only onboard sound.

That's unfortunate. I feel like it might be too much of a risk for the price I may have to settle for something else.

I'm kind of unsure... I don't want to buy such an expensive headset without being sure that it'll work fine. If my volume decides whether the headset will be fine or not can't I make some kind of test to see the dB level?

Yeah HyperX Cloud will definitely be my "backup" if I can't settle on one of the Sennheiser ones. Seems like a really great headset compared to the competitors in the same price class.

When I listen to music I don't want it louder than still being able to have a conversation with someone on Skype. If that actually gives any indication of the general sound level Also I listen to almost every kind of music. But I must confess I'm very confused now. Don't know what headsets are fine or not with the onboard audio on the Asus Z87-Pro now. Side note: Also saw a review about the G4ME ZERO's where the guy said it was hard to 'drive' them with his onboard sound.

I seems like the OPEN cup headsets have less ohm than the closed ones actually: 350SE: 150 Ohm ZERO: 150 Ohm 363D: 32 Ohm ONE: 50 Ohm The 363D's also list 2k Ohm on the Microphone for some reason, I don't know what that's about or what effect it has.

Would be nice if the Asus mobos do. Otherwise I'm almost out of options concerning Sennheiser headsets since the high amounts of Ohm would kind of ruin the bass.

I have the Asus Z87 Pro (Realtek ALC1150) which leads me to believe 363D might be the best option of the Sennheiser headsets for my mobo since it includes a USB soundcard.

Yeah I did see his review they look pretty good, but I am feeling like I'm slightly weighing more towards the more expensive headsets. I got some money for my birthday for exactly this.But I am still undecided
