No argument from me on using the right tool for the right job!

I wanted to chip in here. I have a MiniX+, and after reading this topic I understood that the A310 was a good option to get. Since some of you report issues with the A310 Sparkle’s fan, I went for the A310 ASrock.
The ASrock does not fit in the MiniX+ without removing the fans. Removing them was easy enough, as they’re just clipped in place, and for now I placed them on the side inside my case.
I’ll have to test the performance to see if it overheats, but finding this after waiting 2 weeks for delivery was a bit of a bummer.
It shouldn’t, but you should also know that @TheColin21 also helped find a fix for the Sparkle A310 fan ramp by updating the card firmware (this normally requires Windows as it’s part of the driver installation)
So if it’s not too late, you could return the ASRock - it’s double-wide and shouldn’t be expected to fit in the X+ chassis.
