I am using 3.60R too. It is located somewhere in the "Advanced" tab

I am sry it is not quite feasible since my A300 is currently running ESXi in the office and has a few VMs running 24/7.

Yes it is located in the SMU options

Depends on which "old chip" you are referring to. In my case I replaced the 2400G with 4750G. In their default configuration (65W) They are mostly identical in thermals and power consumption. I ran them in a room with AC (~22C), they topped out around 85C. However the 4750G supports TDP...

I used 3.60R and tested it with: 1. Folding (Full setting) in Windows for the whole weekend 2. Running ESXi then running Folding@Home in 2 VMs for another weekend. SO far nothing happened. I would call it stable enough.

I ran my tests with Kingston 2x8GB 2666 CL19 , Basic sticks. After that, I changed to Kingston HyperX 2x16GB 2666 CL15 Now it is running at 2666 16-17-17 Since VM is the main purpose of my machine. I deliberately keep it at 2666 for max stability.

I am sry I can't run Vallery anytime soon, since my A300 is mainly for ESXi application, it is up and running in my office. ? I ran 3DMark Timespy and Firestrike for benchmark, also RE2 Remake for real gaming. Results are here (4750G at TOP , 2400G at bottom) Roughly 16% performance > 2400G...

I am using a Noctua L9a with A9x25 on my A300 And this is the Temps during stress test for 4750G 65W configuration

Just wanna share some statistics I gathered with my A300 with 2400G / 4750G and notebook 4650U This A300 + 4750G is perfect for small VM applications, especially in 35W TDP config, <60C in small FFT is just insane.

Just a Minor update for the side windows : The windows were acrylic, now replaced with regular window glass (not tempered)

Thanks for the suggestion. Yes that is my next step : testing with and without fans to get the best configuration, then build the next prototype around it.

(29/12/2018) - upgraded to glass windows Hello all, This is my first project for making a case for myself. I am building this from the ground. Suggestions and Criticisms are appreciated. Link -> Previous Thread for Prototype No.1 and No.2 This, the CK-03, is the first fully functioned...

Thanks for the advice. There is a 250mm x 250mm demcifilter installed, and it is a very fine mesh. I expected this dust filter would restrict airflow by 50%. So that's why there are 4 fans at the bottom, and they are running at around fixed 70% speed for better acoustic performance. But yeah...

Thanks for the comment. Yes the case layout is purposely built to have air intake in ONE direction for easy dust filtering. Also my air cooling OCD made me bumped up the CPU cooler clearance all up to 160 mm tall.

Updated with the Second prototype, it is working now.
