Z690 AORUS ELITE AX

Yes at one time I use nothing but air cooling. But with the prices for the liquid cooling. The CPU on this board is at 21c to 23c at idle. Would a air cooler do that more likely not.

I just got 2 Refurbished Cooler Master Master-Liquid ML240L RGB 240mm MLW-D24M-A20PC-R1 for $50 ea.

Plus this is info on the site I bought them:

CPU Cooler Only No Other Accessories Included (Everything was there in the box)

Refurbished Not In Original Packaging. (It was in the Original Box)

May show signs of use which may include scuffs, scrapes, dings, dents, dust, marks, or paint missing. (It was like brand new)

So it was like a New Liquid Cooler.

Hi,

I see refurbished but like new, well that's a good way of saving some cash. If it is straight forward to make the modification even better.

Cheers,

The cooler master bracket there is no modification.

The holes on all boards from 1156 to 1200 are all the same. 75mm x 75mm. On the new 1700 boards the holes are 78mm x 78mm. 

On the cooler master bracket the screws will move out to 82.55mm x 82.55mm.

Now not all liquid coolers companies do their brackets the same. I was just lucky to have the right ones. lol

Had to do a Bios update.

The update went well and the NVMe does shows up now. But now it will not boot into windows. It gets to a point when windows is booting it BSOD. It is telling me the stop code inaccessible boot device. 

But I got everything working again. Had to do a reset on windows. But the update did fix the bios problem with the NVMe ssd now showing up in the NVMe Config area.
