I hope I'm not late to the party, but here's my new setup (bought in June) which runs Debian Sid without problems: MoBo: Asus Z87-A iZ87, SATA600 RAID, USB3.0 CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Processor Koeler Hyper 212 Evo RAM: Corsair 2x4GB, DDR3, PC12800, CL9, Vengeance, LP CPU: Intel Haswell Core i5 4570S 2.90GHz 6MB Box DVD Writer: Samsung DVD Brander SH-224DB/BEBE 24x, SATA Bulk HDD: 2x Western Digital Harddisk 3.5" 2TB, SATA300, WD20EURS I am running the two HDD in RAID 1 as /home, while / is on an Intel SSD SA2M080G2GC which I have recycled. I had trouble at the beginning because I wanted to use an OCZ SSD with Sandforce chipset, which was just flat out refused by the motherboard. I swapped the OCZ with the Intel from my laptop and never looked back. The CPU runs idle at 28C and the PC is completely silent. I hope this helps. -- What is worth doing is worth the trouble of asking somebody to do. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
