Hi, 

 

I was wondering if you could help me on a question I have.  

 

Here is what I bought:

 

Case:  Node 304

Mobo: H87i-Plus

CPU:   G3258

GPU:   R9-270x (MSI)

 

I was supposed to get the "Be Quiet! Pure Rock" as a cooler wich would have fitted nicely.  But I got the "Be Quiet! Shadow Rock 2" by mistake.  

 

Can I leave fan out as long as my temps don't go too high?

 

Will they go too high?

 

(If they won't go too high) If I overclock the cpu, will the temperture stay reasonable?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

PS: The exhaust fan of the Node 302 is less than 1 cm away from the heatsink.

Yes u can leave the fan out. As you can't over clock that CPU with that mono anyway

Hello again, 

 

For all I heard, the mobo does support overclock?

 

NCIX site says:

ASUS site says:

H87I-PLUS BIOS 2001 and BIOS updater
Support Intel® Pentium® Anniversary Edition CPU (G3258).

 

PS Haven't tried overclocking yet, just trying to put it together...
