My Z370 ITX board died last night. I checked everything else including reseating it, two separate case installs, and different power supplies. I pieced together the best parts of my HTPC and the leftovers from the gaming set up:
Z170 Gigabyte Gaming 5 ITX, 6700K, 2 x 8GB 3200 ram, 1TB SSD, GTX...
got the code in an email and redeemed it on Steam and it said it worked but there's nothing to download. The website doesn't help either.
Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? I redeemed the original code when I installed the NWO and got the alpha code the other day.
You could but it would run at 100% and be fairly loud. I would check with the Swiftech reps at Overclock.net. They've been really helpful to me and a lot of others.
Have you tried connecting a fan to the CPU header on the motherboard? It could be the board too. Or you can hook the pump to a sata connector via adapter and it'll run at full speed if its not dead which is how I bleed and leak test my systems. That way you'd know for sure if its the motherboard...
I started out with a Swiftech H220X and added a block to my 290 and an extra radiator. Not a bad start to water cooling. The H220X gives you a lot for $150.
I'd say if you like RTCW you'll like it. The play style is very close and there's a point in the game where you make a choice that gives you a second story line to play though. There are a bunch of secrets to find as well if you like that stuff. I'm playing through it for the second time...
I had a bunch of trouble seating an H80 but the H60 I replaced it with is fine. apparently the bracket production is inconsistent and they don't always seat well. I'd exchange it and see if that works.
Good luck! These issues are never fun!
The fan controller sounds like a short or something. I'd disconnect and reconnect everything attached to it and make sure all of the connections are good and see if that helps including the connector to the switch inside the front panel.
It could be the power supply or the molex connector...
I did it with the H220 for my CPU/GPU and it made life easy. It's really easy to add stuff but the head unit can limit you on some motherboards or cases due to it's size.
For fun is a good enough reason to water cool.
