if Asetek actually has a quieter pump, and that pump is only (for now) on NZXT, woof. that's a very nice thing

when is someone going to talk about software for these things - I agree the hardware it NICE and that is why I have purchased NZXT cases, coolers and controllers for 3 systems now, but the CAM software is really bad. I called their support just a couple of weeks back regarding issues being able to install, sign in and run the latest version of CAM and they told me that they were having issues and to use an old version :-( Its the same for the ASUS motherboards I use, so many issues with the software but all anyone wants to talk about is how cool the hardware is...

Need a review of the Z-Series! Looks very nice. I'd like to know more about what can be displayed on the LCD in terms of real-time data, and how it is configured.

Already on it, half February samples should be shipped.

Great. I'm still using the stock AMD cooler that came with the 3900X and I am happy with it - it's LED lighting looks great, and it keeps all 12 cores under 90C when all cores at 100% load for extended time,.... so it will take an big improvement in performance, features and looks to make me pay another €200+ on an aftermarket cooler.

Yeah, the stock WRAITH cooler is okay but you need to tweak it a bit to keep acoustics under control. E.g. below 60 degrees C a low RPM. That CPU deserves LCS though 🙂
