Re: Silent System with Akasa Euler doesn't boot

I am thinking of buying more or less exactly the same hardware? How are the temperatures holding up? And under 100% load for about 1 hour? I have recently got Euler S and G1840 running in it, and would be glad to give you some details on temp. With a room temp of 26C, I got the followings: Idle - 4...

Re: Silent System with Akasa Euler doesn't boot

you can also buy a new bios chip http://www.ebay.com/itm/BIOS-CHIP-ASUS-A78M-E-B85M-D-PLUS-A58M-A-USB3-H81M-C-R2-0-H81T-CS-B-/380938085265?pt=UK_Computing_Other_Computing_Networking&hash=item58b1ade391 Oh, this sounds a way out if I was out of option, thanks for telling. I ended up getting a 2nd ha...

Akasa Euler with 65W i5-4590S, possible?

Hello, I have been looking into getting a HTPC, but then it would be the best if I can get it with vPro such that I can manage it when I am away home (which I don't go back for a year usually), would you think the Akasa Euler case can stand the heat from a 4590S? I was trying to look for the cheapes...

Re: Silent System with Akasa Euler doesn't boot

Sorry for my incorrect information... No need to be sorry, all this stuff is a learning experience. The Asus Windows tool is an easy one for me because I have actually used it. But it would be nice if the 'CPU-less' BIOS updating method of some Asus boards became as bit more universal. I note that ...

Re: Silent System with Akasa Euler doesn't boot

I hope this is useful for you, and I will probably building a similar system, but maybe with a cheaper CPU like G1840. My concern is that it has a 54W TDP, a bit higher than Euler was designed for, while I just wonder without fullload, would the heat still be an issue. No need for concern. :) The r...

Re: Silent System with Akasa Euler doesn't boot

...But then I realized that ASUS does allow CPU-less BIOS refresh, that is, they have a tool for us to update the BIOS without having bought an old CPU: http://support.asus.com/cpusupport/list.aspx?SLanguage=en&p=1&m=H81T&hashedid=Cp4Lh1mxYeb2KgYJ Unfortunately that tool is a Windows program that i...

Re: Silent System with Akasa Euler doesn't boot

Hi, Just on my search to see if Euler fits the ASUS H81T, I came across your post and was sorry for your case. But then I realized that ASUS does allow CPU-less BIOS refresh, that is, they have a tool for us to update the BIOS without having bought an old CPU: http://support.asus.com/cpusupport/list...
