Official Water Cooling Thread of the Stock Maximus SE ROG NB Club:

[carmatic]

hey guys

anybody know who still sells the SE board in the UK? my new board arrived and its not the SE, even tho the website says it has the fusion block system ...
can anyone who has removed the fusion block from the mobo, but have not thrown it away, please post pics of it on the side? and see if its possible to open the block... i really want to see if its possible to make the fusion block more competitive with aftermarket blocks

or do you think that its just not worth it trying to refund the motherboards again and again, and just get a complete waterblock set to replace all the stock aircooling stuff on one of the maximus formula's i've got sitting in my house?

earlier i was thinking about giving up my search for a maximus SE, and buy a dfi UT x38 t2r mobo instead, after all its northbridge cooler comes 'pre-uninstalled' so thats one less step to watercooling it, its got more overclocking bios options, and the orange colour makes it go faster but i still kinda want a maximus because it has the LCD poster and colourful LEDs on the board... and its been around long enough to be easy to find, and for stuff like the aftermarket blocks to exist...
