Don't have your board so not sure exactly what you're asking, but have you seen this over at SPCR? Details some of the minor shenanigans that ASUS pulled with the fan control on the Z87 mobos:

Hmmm, guess it might've been smarter if I'd led off with these specs for my existing mobo:

Looks like power is 24 + 4 pin, so maybe I dodged that bullet. I'm sure there'll be lots...
Thanks for comments so far. My current rig looks more like this one... two case fans, one top one rear, both exhaust, plus a fair amount of empty space:

I have a 5 year old HP D5100 Core2/Yorkdale system that I've nursed along with memory and disk upgrades, but it's finally showing signs of shakiness (random blue screens from the Radeon graphics card) and perhaps the time for an upgrade is here. My use is mostly photo/video editing...
I just missed one of those <$200 bundles with WHS thrown in last winter, and agree... prices climbed back up and have held. I guess we'll know there's a refresh coming when prices start to drop again.
Currently trying to decide whether to stick with a home server (I have original WHS on an...
Believe I'll put myself in the "wait for 1.1" camp, still have some questions about this, though I am eager to replace the NIS2010 that I'm running now when it expires in a few months.
In particular, I haven't read anything comprehensive about how MSE is intended to integrate with and/or...
Yes for a printer, or other all-electronic gadget.
Excercise caution, though, if gadget contains rechargeable batteries... sometimes the charge rate is limited by the current rating of the external supply, and you wouldn't want to inadvertently charge the batteries at 2X or 5X their...
My wife asked me to digitize a half-dozen old Hi8 tapes taken on a 10-year-old Sony camcorder. The camcorder's best output is S-Video. I'll probably use some recent version of Windows Movie Maker to compile the various clips onto a couple of DVDs. Can anyone recommend a decent <$100 video...
Really disappointed to hear that Win7 continues Vista's I-know-better behavior with regard to folder views... that was going to be my #1 reason to upgrade.
I don't actually mind Vista's nannyish "Windows needs your permission to continue" behavior, but this folder-view nonsense gets in my...
I'm about to attempt a Home Server build using this just-released fanless Atom mobo from Intel:

Only two SATA ports, but I'm only storing music and photos, so the limited size and low bandwidth are a good fit. The 20-30W power budget...
The actual output impedance of your amp, by design, is actually a tiny fraction of an ohm -- effectively a voltage source -- so don't have any concern about it being 'mismatched' for your speakers. The lower-impedance speakers will just draw more current from the amp (Ohm's Law), and more...
Laptop's brand new, predecessor model (uses same battery) was introduced a year ago... so at least the battery's not ancient. Battery takes charge, shows good estimated run time, and actually appears to give good run time (decent capacity).
So I'm not feeling ripped off... merely curious (at...
Anyone know of a utility, either buried in the depths of Windows or a 3rd party app, that can read and display all available data from a 'smart' laptop battery pack?
I know the battery 'fuel gauge' info typically comes out via this data bus, and I suspect there's a lot more available such as...
Looked here?

Could you (or have you already) posted your build? Specifically the mobo, and any issues or lessons learned along the way. I have my eyes on an Atom WHS build as well.
