That's not what he's concerned about. Strix takes like 4 slots. Even low profile RAM takes maybe just over 1 slot (with mobo). @nanjero 's chances of fitting everything are very slim. Chances might improve if you get your hands on lower mobo stands, you can probably get the mobo closer to the...

Just thought I'd mention for records keeping, but the MSI 4090 Supreme Liquid X does not fit the case if you use ATX power supply without 12VHPWR connector due to the water tubes being very rigid. The 12VHPWR adapter + 4 cables + PSU Thickness prevent placing those tubes inside the case. In...

Holy Moses! I want one. This might actually save me from trying to cram Accelero Xtreme 3 into the case. EDIT: just ordered @Kreasu I think the only way to fit a 4090 into the case without breaking things is to use either one: a) 4090 Founders Edition, it's the smallest air cooled 4090. b)...

It's not just the connecter you need to look out for. The design of this connector uses wires soldered on PCB, so the thing coming out of the connector is actually PCB. If you bend it too much in that are (which you did) it will weaken the solder joint and can make it brittle, leading to...

That 12vhpwr adapter doesn't look well. Make sure you have a fire extinguisher on stand-by.

Well, it came early so I tested it right away. I tested it with same parameters as before. -30 PBO, Grizzly Kryonaut paste, PPC-3000 fan. These are the results I got (yep, it still throttles): Cooler Absolute Minimum CPU Package Clock Average CPU Package Clock AXP-100 Full Copper (Exhaust)...

Way ahead of you. Wait until Saturday for results. Also you know what, I wonder if one of those coolers could be turned into a vapor chamber for better results. I bet one of them has hollow heat pipes that can be filled with low boiling point non-corrosive liquid. Hmm, sounds like a project.

Ok so I got the Big Schuriken 3 RevB fresh off the US customs shelf (had to be imported because Canada isn't important enough for Scythe to sell it here). Installation is not too terrible compared to AXP-100 FC overall, but the way the cooler is positioned around the CPU it left no space for...

Importing my Big Schuriken RevB from the ol' US of A, should get it at the end of the month and then run comparison against AXP-100 FC.

This and other comments about AXP120 being better than AXP100 Full Copper really confuse the crap out of me. How can a copper AXP100 cooler behave worse than aluminum AXP120 one, and if it does, then how can my even larger AXP200 behave worse than my copper AXP100 when tested with the same...

I suggest upgrading to AXP-100 Full Copper (not just any AXP-100). From my research, AXP-120 is basically smaller AXP-200 which I tested, and AXP-200 performed 5-10 degrees worse than AXP-100 Full Copper. Prime example of how cooler material affects the CPU cooling more than the size. Both...

Why not just run the CPU cooler in exhaust configuration? In my case it lowered the CPU temps by a few degrees, I bet memory is also affected. You are correct about 80mm fan holes, but in fact 92mm would work as well. 92mm fan can actually be mounted without any screws through surface friction...

It's not the flex of the panels that's the issue. Everyone is correct saying they will be flat when installed. But side panels can still be bent if you push too hard on the case or lift it incorrectly for transportation, which will cause the stand to be detached. Putting it back in every time...

Alright, so it's time to present my take on the N-ATX v2. Keep in mind, I am coming from P-ATX v2, which I love dearly as it was an extremely solid design. My hardware: Ryzen 5800X3D Asus B550 Strix ITX Asus RTX 3090 Strix 64GB 3600MHz Kingston Fury Asus ROG 1000G My primary goal was simple...

You can probably get something like this (Aliexpress link) and stick it into the case using velcro or something. The case officially only supports 1x 3.5" HDD, so you will have to get creative. Looks like I will be picking it up tomorrow from the post office. Thanks for your help. I will...
