Here they come.

The reason I didnt buy a whole black H440 is because when they release the case to the market there where only white color cases...If I wanted a black I should wait 1 month...And patience are not my strongest side :P



I'm not 100% done yet, I will put another layer matt black colour so it will be good :)

And later on, I will paint the fans black too, and buy black and dark grey sleeved cables.

Socket temps as well? What do you use for stability testing?

Quote I manage to undervolt my CPU to 1,250V at stock speed! Still stable! 
The CPU temp never peaked over 52c.


Stable doing what? Also, if that was the CPU package temp, where was your socket temp (listed under the motherboard sensors as "CPU") at? That's the one you should worry about, especially since you have the wrong type of CPU cooler for that CPU. ASRock instructs to use a top-down cooler when using certain FX-series processors in order to keep components surrounding the CPU cool enough.

Quote The 970M pro 3 got really nice quality to it, it feels heavy yet it is tiny, good heatsinks on the VRM and NB/SB


But the motherboard only has a 4+1 power phase design, so it's not really designed for OC'ing FX-8xxx processors.

Hi! I was running AMD Overdrive to test my CPU stability :), I let it run through out the night. 

Its the sockel temp that peaked at 52c fans at 900RPM, (Max 1300RPM) 

In the Asrock bios you can set the temp at max 55c and the fans is working after that. 

Yes I know Asrock says about the CPU cooler, anyway...it seems like this U14S cooler does its job pretty well..blowing the heat out of the chassi.
