No, did you check if your case is bent.Originally posted by: Ballatician
Does anyone else have to push down significantly on the top-right of the board to screw it down?

Gonna try that tonight after work SR thx for the reply..
Wanna hear something funny, I just got back my 4th evga 680i board in the last 2 months, after switching out the proc-psu-ram-and all cabling I got another dead board. I did a build outiside the case as I normally do and it will not post. I rmad the proc-returned the PSU for another-used my value ram or my D9s,and even tried it with a pci graphics card. Man I hate nvidia.......

I have a IP35, non-E board, which is pretty similar to the E model.
Does anyone know if it's safe to run one Panaflo 0.60 amp 2500 RPM on the CPU header and two Scythe 0.20 amp 1600 RPM fans from the case fan headers?
I already tried running this setup briefly and I know it works but is it safe in the long run? I couldn't really find any amp specs for the IP35 fan headers in the manual. I am thinking at least the Panaflo fan should be ok because even the stock Intel cooler fan is rated for 0.60 amp - same amp rating as the Panaflo.
Man, this thread is now 110 pages!

Hey SerpentRoyal..
Well err where do i start i just wanted to share with you my results so far but i explain my adventure so to this date.
CPU: E6600, 2Gb G.skill 6400HZ.
My previous board was the DFI Infinity which was solid at its max booting o/c but for reasons i could not grasp the motherboard would never let me
keep any clock past 3.6Gigs, i could boot at 3.6+ but the mobo would not post on cold or warm boot/reboot resulting in a bios reset.. before this
board i had the Abit AW9D-Max which was only really good for showing me what my cpu could boot at which was 4ghz unstable heh, at 3.6Gigs it was
still shabby stability there was some defo memory issues with the board itself.
Now
I found this board then lots of + posts one being yours and just what i needed 3rd party reviewer...
I clocked my E6600 to my old o/c first and made sure this was stable using Orthos priming, after an 8 hour test which yeh you said 2 hours is
fine+ all your games and programs work.. which they do just like to have least 8 hours priming :S so yeh after 8 hours i was happy then proceeded
to my new target of 3.8 gigs.
After almost 2 days i finally hit 3.8gigs stable with a Cpu Vcore of 1.62v 1.66v in Bios :S I wasn't to happy with this vcore at first as my cpu
temps where at 74+c err 165f? on water-cooling (New Pump new to this setup), all other voltages are at stock bar my Vdimm which is set at 2.3v, i
rearrange my fans to make sure the best powered fans where over my chipset I invested in some Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Paste and replaced my Arctic Ceramique with it, i even added a Scythe Kama-Bay with a faster 120mm fan the combo of all 3 reduced my PWM temps from 60c full to 54/57c and my CPU orthos load from 74 down to 64/70 less depending on room temps more so less as its winter and gaming you can guess was the same - 5c+
drop in temps.
So far I'm really really pleased with this mobo and the new cooling layout as now my temps are like what they were at 3.6gigs or stock speeds with
intel cooling lol.
Here are 2 links of 2 screenshots Priming Temps and Idle Temps, this is the second time ive done a 12 hour test because i set my timings back
from 5.4.4.12 to 4.4.4.12 846mhz hehe need to be sure it was stable i did also use Mem Test for Windows for serval hours which i like to use.
C1E Enabled Full Load Orthos Temp/Speed as you can see from the HDD temps ambiat temps are nice and low.

C1E Enabled Idle Load Temp/Speed.

Hope i didn't go on to much and thanks for your help as yeh this Thread did.
PS: I'm still using my First core2 which i brought when it came out or a lil while after (£250 price tag) this cpu still has more to give and i
don't wish to go Quad till the new Q9450 comes out then i will invest in one but man I'm an OpterOwn boy (Opteron 146) if money allowed it id get a new AMD Phenom setup to play with to but i dont know how i afford what i do anyway

i have been testing out the limits of my ram with my ip35e . it looks like my luck has changed in the lottery-stick lotto .
my corsair XMS V 2.1 with the pro-mos chips running 1:2 ratio on ram cause my little e2140 can't scale to 500fsb . has hit a windows stable 1068mhz @2.2v ran a bunch of benchmarks and games--not even a hiccup . i should have tried 1100 but the results were so good i didn't want to spoil it with a crash . this is on auto spd 555-15 .
i ordered a set of A-data ddr2-800 extreme edition kit of 2x1g from the egg Thursday--super-quick eggsters had it in my hands by 4pm Friday--regular shipping no less .
the a-data hit 1100mhz @2.2v-dimm with ease . ran a bunch of benchmarks --games --no problems with it at all--no sign of instability . the A-data was a little warm --a bit more warm than the corsair XMS --but nothing i would worry about . i think the adata's are micronD9's but i ain't about to pull the heat spreader just to find out .
but these pro-mos corsair xms run very well and very fast --but somehow they have a reputation for being second rate to d9s .
either the XMS or the A-data has no problems at all running the advertised 4-4-4-12 -2T @ 800 2v-dimm.
the adata is really a deal $55 shipped with a $15 rebate --yea i know i hate rebates too but for $20 a gig shipped for ram that can hit 1000+ thats hard to turn down .
i saw a deal on buy .com where you could get xms-800 for $60 and then get a $20 rebate + a $10 for google checkout so $30 a gig --but the rebate runs out like the 25-dec--LOL and there is no indication on which revision you'll get--

Yes...not an issue at all. That mosfet driven fan header is very robust. I've pulled 1A from the CPU and SYSTEM fan headers and didn't see any big spike in board temp (checked with IR thermometer). Don't try this with the cheaper IP35-V.
You can wire the two 0.20A fans in parallel to the SYSTEM fan header if you want the board to control the speed of those fans. Use 3 pin settting instead of the default 4 pin in the BIOS. With on-board fan control enabled, all fans connected to the CPU and SYSTEM fan headers will only run at full speed when the CPU temp exceeds a preset number. This reduces stress on the output devices and case noise level when the PC is not under full load.
