Potential Issues / Incompatibilities
-
A
Warning: The ASRock Fatal1ty Z97 Killer ATX LGA1150 Motherboard supports the Intel Core i5-4690K 3.5 GHz Quad-Core Processor with BIOS version P1.30. If the motherboard is using an older BIOS version, updating the BIOS will be necessary to support the CPU.
-
B
Note: A 3.5" to 2.5" bay adapter is required.
-
C
Note: The Rosewill BLACKHAWK ATX Mid Tower Case supports video cards up to 420mm long, but video cards over 300mm may block drive bays. Since the Gigabyte GAMING GeForce GTX 970 4 GB Video Card is 312mm long, some drive bays may not be usable. The Rosewill BLACKHAWK ATX Mid Tower Case hard drive bays are positioned where some of the bays may be physically blocked when using longer video cards.
-
D
Note: Unable to verify the Rosewill BLACKHAWK ATX Mid Tower Case and the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler are compatible.
-
E
Disclaimer: Some physical constraints are not checked, such as RAM clearance with CPU Coolers.
