Hey guys and girls,

Just so you know, the 19-pin Internal USB 3.0 headers are now available on Cooler Master's European Website (www.coolermaster.nl). I contacted CM Support (support@coolermaster.nl) and requested my long overdue cable.
All they asked for was the serial number on my HAF X and my address. I responded promptly and my Internal USB 3.0 Header cable is on its way! :) :)

So everyone with a P67 board (P8P67 Pro, Deluxe, ROG etc), contact Cooler Master support and request your free cable today! B-)

Cheers

Nice just seen this :), Im guessing its a standard header? So would fit the P8Z68-v pro board too? I would assume so.

I wonder if PCS will tell me the serial number on my HAF-X case so I can get the header in time for when I get the case :) ?

Hi there mate,

Yes, it is a standard 19 pin USB 3.0 Header and it should fit the Z68 series. However, having received my cable, I must say that its no good. It is just tooo short and there's no way it wil reach the front panel of the HAF X :( I have been unable to use my cable to date...

As for the serial number of your HAF X, you don't need to ask PCS, there should be a sticker on the back of your case. It should look something like this:

I dont have my PC yet, its in pre-production at the moment, but they have all the parts apparently, so maybe they might be able to tell me the part number before I recieve the computer is what I meant :)

Thanks for the other info though.

Errr, I know its been a while, but I had to ask this:

Has ANY HAF X owner been able to connect their Front USB 3.0 ports using the Internal Mobo header? - of course, provided you have a Mobo that supports these headers.
I received the cable from CM, but the length is too short and its no good :( Makes me wonder if they designed this cable with some other (tiny!) case in mind?

Any useful comments/suggestions would be much appreciated and rewarded with +REP

Cheers

:) I know - but these two threads ('USB Headers' here and 'Nemesis review' in showoff section) are the only places I can discuss this.
We should really have a HAF X owners club! What do you think Frenchy? ;)

Well as you may have seen in the news theyve been saying that people who use IE have a lower IQ, I think what they missed out is that all the IE users happened to have sniper cases lolol. There must be a link between us great minds and the HAF-X. In short, yes I think we should have an owners club :)

I'm getting a sniper case and i dont use IE, I use Chrome, the browser for smart people, clearly sniper people are better because they care about money and dont want to spend an extra £20 to lose certain benefits

What benefits would they be Wozza? Also I use Firefox, the best browser by far, especially for the work I do.

I used to use firefox but found it not to my standards

i just realized that i am using firefox right now cos i had to change to linux... Firefox crashes and goes unresponsive... typical firefox

Anyway
Do you have a fan controller?
Do you have blue LED fans? (red is crap)
Do you have a carry handle?
Do you have feet on the bottom to keep it sturdy?

Thats it.. GOD DAM IT, stop making me read the HAF-X description it gets better every time

the main benefit i think is the fan controller to keep my fans 100% if the HAF-X had one i would definitely get it

No fan controller, but I have my profiles set so my fans are controlled automatically by software, makign fan controller redundant.

Why would I want a carry handle, its not a laptop lol, I dont take my PC anywhere, pointless feature.

Yes it does have feet, and tbh at 17KG it doesnt need anythign to keep it sturdy.

lol HAF-X > Sniper, end of :D

Not to worry Wozza, by the time you order most of your components will be so outdated that you will be well under budget. At least you will be able to then afford the HAF-X. :)

When are you ordering by the way?

How has he lied about his identity? he said he has a lottery ticket, I know plenty of parents who buy their kids lottery tickets. How about in your first few posts on the forum you say something constructive, or is that too hard to ask?

I don't care whether you don't like each other or not, keep it away from the forums!

dont worry he knows who i am, simple as that, apparently i said i was in college now (dont remember that) also read his username backwards

sadly the kid i think it is is actually really smart and knows quite a bit about PCs
