Hello,

I should be recieving a package with i7 3930k + ASUS Rampage IV Extreme + 16GB Kingston Predator a 2133MHz either tomorrow or Wednesday.

From what I've heard, the motherboard's southbridge fan by default is quite loud.

Would it be OK to turn it off? I will be running it with my GTX680 SLI, both the 3930k and the SLI under water (Motherboard will stay on air), will it be ok or does the fan really need to be enabled?

Also, is it worth using the OC Key?

Thanks!!

PCH fan speed can be controlled. Using profile or any useful way. My PCH fan is dead silent.

I'm just worried because I heard by default it's way too loud.

I'm also going to use it with an i7 3930k which is C1 from a friend, but from what I've seen it is quite hell of a C1 chip, he was able to hit 5.1GHz stable (HT Enabled) with 1.51v, do you guys think I'll be able to keep let's say 4.8GHz for 24/7? I will run it under water.

Yea, as mentioned there's a silent profile iirc that makes it tolerable. But you can run w/o a fan like I do, however I'm using a larger heatsink. PCH temps haven't changed for me.

Should be just fine.

On my i7 2600k I liked to ideally keep it below 75ºC under heavy stress programs/gaming (Normally below 70ºC in games), and about 1.45v voltage at max under water, what's the ideal voltage and temperature limit under water for the 3930k?

Another question I have is I saw the board has an extra 4pin (Apart of the 8pin) for the CPU power, is that really needed if I want to overclock it to lets say 4.8GHz?

I am not quite sure if my power supply (Silverstone Strider Plus 1000W) has that extra 4pin connector, not really sure.
