Do the RGB lights flash? I don't like flashing lights.

its more of a pulse than a blink. they dont go all the way out. besides that, you can also control them with the included software. Mine are just constantly on, no blinking or pulsing. I believe you can even turn them off totally as well.

so it says "1 x USB 3.0 connectors support additional 2 x USB 3.0 ports" how does it do that with only one interior connector? I ask because I want to put it in the NZXT S340 Elite which has 2 front panel usb 3.0 connectors that i want to use both of.

Hi, The interior USB 3.0 connectors are specifically made to address 2 or more USB 3.0 ports, as almost every single case has at least 2 USB 3.0 connectors. I personally use the NZXT H440 case which has 2 USB 3.0 ports and 2 USB 2.0 ports -- all of which are powered sufficiently with this motherboard. Your S340 should have no issues with the USB ports!

does it only take 2133mhz ram or can it take higher?

I'm using it with some G.Skill TridentZ DDR4-3000 at full speed without a problem.

I want to order this mobo with a cryorig H7 but I was wondering if the H7 will block the rgb on the motherboard?

I'm using a Zalman water block, and it fits fine.The lights are clearly visible. A couple other things about this board. The mouse control in the BIOS if very sensitive. It moves almost too fast to be useful. Also if you are using a RAID setup with M.2 drives, You will only be able to boot off that virtual drive. Another couple items. It seems slow to cold boot, and slow to wake from sleep or hibernate. It might be me but that how it feels when using it.

Whats the difference between the Z270F and the Z270E?

They are identical in specs and overall performance, however, the E-version has WIFI and Bluetooth where as the F-version does not.
