  1. Hi there ThaGeNeCySt,

     

    Are you referring to the fan controller connections themselves?

     

    Those are a separate controller at the top of the chassis front panel.

     

    you should connect the fans directly to that male header and that would allow direct DC control over the fan speed  via the top Hi/Low buttons.

     

    however if you prefer motherboard control then you can just connect the fans directly to the motherboard headers  to allow BIOS DC/PWM control.

     

    Please feel free to reply if you have any other questions!

  2. We are always open to feedback, as we always want to build new chassis and parts the way you need them.

     

    Thank you guys for all of the feedback on the new X series, we hope you are having as much fun exploring them as we did designing them!

  3. Hi,

     

    The reason you have a single pin missing from one of the fans is that is a RPM sense pin and the motherboard cannot reference two different fan speeds on a single header so the RPM sense pin only references from one fan as primary but still sends (Pin 4) PWM signal to the fan to actively control the fan speed for both fans while the other two are power and ground.

     

    This ensure optimum feedback and equally matched fan speed for your cooler.

    Xeon E5450

    Intel DP45SG

    4GB Ram

    8800GTS

    Asus Xonar DG

    SATA 600 PCI Express

    Hitachi 3TB HDD

    Logitech G5 mouse

    Saitexk X52 Pro sometimes

    Hi AVPerry,

     

    I am working with our team to check on this, as sometimes software issues there are many things that can cause an incompatibility.

     

    I will update you as soon as we have something figured out for you on this.

  5. Hi SSD50,

     

    Was the SSD removed because the laptop failed?   or have you tried the drive on an internal port on a PC to ensure it is still working?

    Normally if a drive is functioning normally even if the firmware is not necessarily compatible it will show a raw drive in place but not readable.

     

     

    Also just to confirm all details, have you checked disk management in windows to see if the drive is showing up but possibly not initialized?

  6. Hi Avperry,

     

    Can you list your system specs? we can try to reproduce the issue in house.

     

    also I do notice that in the screenshots you provided it is showing a driver loading bar at the bottom (Icon half filled green)

    Was the keyboard freshly plugged in and still initializing when you tried running the installer?

  7. Figured this one out.  I think there is a conflict with the  Water 3.0 software and the software on the ASUS Formula VII MB.  The Water 3.0 software over rides the fan controller on the MB.  Everything is now working perfectly, I just control the CPU fans via the Thermnaltake software, and the others via the MB.

     

    Ran Prime95 for a little over an hour the other day, CPU maxed out at 75, and even then didn't stay there long.  :D

     

    Thanks!

    Awesome and thanks for the info!

     

    sounds like maybe both were trying to communicate via SMBus possible causing conflict.

     

    Im glad its working well for you now!

  8. Im glad I asked before trying it. Im looking for a storage solution that I can add wirelessly to my home network, but I dont want to add another wireless access point, It seems that every device ive come across like the BlacX WiFi edition wants to be its own network, I will never stream anything from this device, I will never carry it around with me, I will never go on the internet through it, its going to be stored out of sight and always on.  I simply want a centralized hard drive that all 3 of my PC's at home can access, Can the BlacX WiFi do that instead of being its own access point?

    Does your Router have a USB port on it?  if so then a regular BlacX or one of our external enclosures should work fine for this function if plugged into it and the sharing function is enabled..

  9. Hi Kvadrat,

     

    The Nic C 4 and C5 have a 3 pin connector which is controlled via potentiometer.

     

    in order to give motherboard control you motherboard would need to support 3 pin or voltage level fan speed support.  This is something the NiC C series was never designed for.

     

    Normally if you want full motherboard control of the fans you would want to replace the installed fans with PWM fan models which allows motherboard ramping of the CPU fan speed.

     

    Also for PWM fan control we did offer a dfferent NiC model such as the F4 model

  10. Hi there, sorry I misread this as Water 3.0 Ultimate.

    the pump speed should read easily, I would recommend plugging the pump header into the CPU Opt header and see if it shows speed in the BIOS.

     

    also have you checked the monitoring section of the BIOS for fan speed as it is connected now?  I am interested to see if it registers any speed at all from the pump.

     

    also is the CPU temp normal and is the system stable with this issue?
