Holy. That Chiphell post looks amazing.

The I/O and VRM heatsink is massive. Blocks part of my Big Shuriken 3. Loved it though. It automatically ran my i7-8700 with less voltage (1.03v at load). I was wondering why my CPU kept running so high after I swapped my board to the Aorus Z390i. My CPU currently peaks up to the low 90s at...

@tinyitx Thanks for the detailed reply. I think you're right. The rear M.2 SSD is way too close to the GPU and is likely being suffocated by the hot air. I think I'm going to have to get used to these temperatures as I do not want to use a top hat. I know the MX500 runs hot normally, so maybe...

Oops, didn't remember seeing that. Thanks a lot. Anyone here try using those specifically mentioned 140mm fans with 120mm mounts?

Just wondering if anyone has tried a Shadow Rock LP with a low profile fan such as the Prolimatech Ultra Vortex or Cryorig XT140 that has 120mm mounts. Thanks.

Ended up returning the Asus Z390-I Strix for the Gigabyte Z390-I Aorus Pro WiFi instead. Fits perfectly with the Big Shuriken 3 now. By the way, does anyone have a solution for rear M.2-2280 SSD cooling? My MX500 is hitting 80 degrees during gaming. Thinking of getting a heatsink, but worried...

Pretty good. I can't hear it at 1000RPM.

Here are photos of my build. EDIT: By the way, does anyone have their top panel lying completely flat? Mine doesn't because of the screws that connect the body to the front/back panels making one half of the top panel taller than the other.

Ok, just spent an hour re-assembling it. It's much better now. The middle compartments no longer push up on the top panel ledges, so now the top panel lies mostly flat. I used the space behind the PSU for cable management. Will upload pics later, but I am a very happy customer. ?

Got my Nouvolo today and it's been a good experience so far. The case came well packaged with plenty of protection There were some very minor imperfections on a few panels The installation videos were easy to follow along with, but an included manual would be nice. I will most likely take...

Case arriving tomorrow. Fast shipping from LA as it was mailed out on the weekend and yesterday was a holiday here in Canada. Thinking of doing an amateur unboxing video and build log once my SF750 comes in (although my temporary SF450 is perfect for my i7-8700 and RTX 2060). I went for the...

Thanks! Can confirm that I received a tracking code. Buyer expectations was set earlier in the week, so was a bit disappointed at the lack of communication when it came to the delays. Will give an update when I receive it later in the week.

Yes, I agree. I think everyone would appreciate a reply or status update for transparency reasons. I'm not irked that the shipment is delayed, but I am irked when I see that Bosco has been online on the forums (according to his profile) and hasn't given us an update on the situation.

Probably better to just post here and hope Nouvolo (Bosco) replies. He was on yesterday according to his profile, so he must've seen our comments. I also emailed him about possibly paying extra for express shipping (as I really wanted to build the system during the long weekend) but he never...

You got it in less than a week, wow. Shipped directly from HK?
