Hi everyone, I just wanted to provide a quick update: The LZX-8 is now available to order from Overclockers UK, with fast worldwide shipping. There are 4 pre-configured models available: STEALTH STORM TEK BOURBON All models can be found here...

Hi Alex, Scan have a few models in stock: https://www.scan.co.uk/shop/computer-hardware/power-supplies/tfx-power-supplies I've used the BeQuiet models before and they were fairly quiet to my ears.

Thanks for posting this comparison, great results for both cases! Also have to give a shoutout to the EVGA 3060, I use this card as well in my own personal rig, they've done a great job with the thermals and fan noise for such a small card.

Loved reading through this thread, thanks for sharing your all your different builds!

Thanks for pulling together all this testing, it will surely help with future development and decisions going forward. I am very confident that the fan noise is being produced due to the close proximity (sub 5mm) of the fan blades to the vent slots. The Cyclone Vent pattern is designed to...

Thanks for the updated testing, interesting to see that the rear case fan does not make as much difference when used with a top down cooler compared to a tower style. It also seems that the new Thermalright Silver Soul 130 is the best performing cooler tested so far.

Thanks for sharing your build and testing, the pics looks great too. How was the build process, did you have any difficulties putting it together? (Mark was sent a prototype). It's great to see that adding the rear fan reduces the CPU by around 11C - 12C, I wonder if it will have as much of an...

Thanks for sharing this testing, it's interesting to see how much of a difference adding a rear case fan makes when using a tower cooler. Was the rear fan set as an intake or as an exhaust? On a related note, it's good to see everyone comparing fans and temps with these coolers, has anyone...

Thank you for providing such a detailed write-up of your performance numbers, I really enjoyed reading about the process you went through to tune the system to your noise/performance preferences. It's very satisfying to see the HT5 being used to it's full potential, it was originally designed...

This looks great, thanks for sharing! How are the temps and performance/noise levels with those custom fan setups?

Yes I would still like to release an extended version of the LZX-8, but I will probably wait till the GPU market is back to normal availability.

Thanks for the interest, unfortunately there aren't any updates at the moment sorry. The market has been really quiet over the last 6 - 12 months due to the lack of hardware availability, we have seen a huge drop in sales from the retail market. Once the market starts picking back up again I...

Yes that's correct, it will be slightly longer than the LZ7 XTD and have support for 2.5 slot cards, so it should open up allot more GPU choice. Expecting to launch it early 2022.

Hi there, I would say early next year is a more realistic date.

It was actually great to see you've used a 3.5" drive, this was a new feature I was unsure about adding as to whether it would cause compatibility issues, it's good to see someone making use of this functionality!
