I don't think the brackets are aluminium. They feel like steel, but I am not a metallurgist so could be mistaken.

The bigger problem is cooler compatibility as a lot of them will crush those caps.

I was thinking of getting this one: AG300 - DeepCool I have an n3 so just enough space and the mounting system seems tall enough to clear the caps but with no proper measurements of MB and mount system it is hard to tell until someone tries it ... but seeing how the intel stock cooler works great, I'm not sure I need it

Hey guys. Is anyone using the N100 version of this board with Unraid? I saw some people on this thread saying that they run it without issue, but I have a couple of problems. First, sleep does not seem to work, no matter what settings I change in the bios. The system goes to sleep but then immediately wakes up. So now I chose to shut down instead of sleep.
But the biggest problem is when I shut down. When I power on the system after a clean shut down then I cannot boot anymore, I am sent to the bios screen. I believe that the USB ports are no longer working because the keyboard and flash drive are no longer detected.
As far as I can tell, only the USB-C port works, if I plug the keyboard in that port it is detected. But even so, if I plug the USB flash drive, the system would still not boot. To fix this I have to completely cut power to the system (unplug the power cord or hit the switch on the power supply).
I am using 3 HDDs, 1 SATA SSD and one NVME drive and a 650W power supply with 8GB of DDR5 4800Mhz RAM. I run the system headless with only one Ethernet cable connected in the first port.
All bios settings are the default ones. Curiously, if I do a reboot everything works OK there is no problem with booting.
Other than this, the performance of the board is good.
Any suggestions would be appreciated, thank you.

I have exactly the same problem. Have you been able to figure out what the issue is?

Okay, I'm going to return the board, no other options. So wasted import tax, time, etc...
I'm thinking about trying one more time directly on cwwk.net website, at least I can get PayPal protection there.
I also contacted support@cwwk.com with all the details, but they not answering.
And their mailserver is broken: Maximum number of MX connection attempts exceeded. #facepalm

Purple board owners - could you please share compatible low-profile cpu radiators you use? I see on this thread Noctua NH-L9i probably fit, but my concern is capacitors near the socket, the stock Jonsbo radiator barely fits there and touches them. Would be great to find better options to use with something like this (it also pushes air towards nvme and memory)

Last time I was researching CWWK, it appeared cwwk.com didn't exist as a live domain, though it might have been grabbed by someone (for sale!). They also have cwwk.net and that might be worth substituting.

Yes, both com/net does not have MX records. Anyway, I made a return on Aliexpress and ordered new one from cwwk.net, let see

I use a Thermalright AXP90-X36 but any 1151 cooler should do. These CPUs are very low power consumption anyway

Just did some extra digging and intel actually have the higher PL2 wattage documented (once) in the 350+ page data sheet. N100 = 25W though that might not be "continuous forever", there are settings that imply it can be time as well as thermally limited. Oddly the N300 was only 35W at PL2. So there should be no need for a huge cooler unless someone is going fanless, and continuous turbo.

It seems like the normal TDP wattages are determined at all cores, base clock, fairly cpu intensive. So without cooling that copes with more than the base-TDP, then by implication any sustained performance will be limited to the base clock. Conversely an idle cpu should be well below the base-TDP.

Hey group, good morning.

I have the CWWK N100 motherboard (black motherboard) with Jonsbo Radiator + Fan with unRAID server.

My unRAID server has been locking me out/freezing/becoming inaccessible. Usually happens 1 or 2 times a week, it always happens when I'm away or the server is unused (discs without any activity)

I change the RAM and power supply and i have the same problem.

Any idea? Thanks.

I had the exact problem in unRAID. I believe it is due to C6 power state. Disable this in the bios and it should be rock solid - at least that is the case for me. Uptime is currently 71 days and counting :)

Do you know where it is in the bios to be able to deactivate it?

C6DRAM?

If i disable the C stated, unRAID starts perfectly, but in syslog i have the next error ( hci_hcd0000:00:0d.0: PCI post-resume error -19! ) always appear when i turn on the unRAID server.

Have you got this error @asychev ?
