    Chimera Industries Cerberus: The 18L, mATX, USA-made enclosure

    Ended up going with the moddiy cables which came out really good! I can fit another 120/140mm fan on my AIO on the just the top half of it. Hopefully this should clear up some of the airflow issues I have. Yes the hinge should be able to fit the 2.5inch hdd bracket just fine. It sits on the...

    Chimera Industries Cerberus: The 18L, mATX, USA-made enclosure

    Doing a bit of an update to my build. I was wondering if anyone had suggestions on sleeving? I am going to be sleeving 1 24 pin connector and 3x8 pin PCIE ones. Should I go purchase out from moddiy and use their pre sleeved cables or do it myself? Just curious on people's thoughts here. Also...

    Chimera Industries Cerberus: The 18L, mATX, USA-made enclosure

    I had to put the rad on the front because I lose access to the bottom pin outs of my motherboard. I wonder if there are some right angle headers I could use to get around it. I can probably now invest in some shorter wiring runs to make it look a lot cleaner. Maybe for another weekend project...

    Chimera Industries Cerberus: The 18L, mATX, USA-made enclosure

    I got myself a AIO that will fit so I will be switching from my scythe fuma. I should finally be able to put my ATX PSU in the ATX location. Right now it's still shoved in the SFX location, it works with some zip ties. I still get some heat issues which causes my PC to shut off once in awhile...

    Chimera Industries Cerberus: The 18L, mATX, USA-made enclosure

    Not Sure if anyone knows on this. I should be fine if I get 2 x 16GB sticks of the same type of memory right? I currently have 2 x 8 sticks. If i get the same model/speeds it should be fine right? I am working on shortening my PSU cables and I was wondering what AWG I would need for the...

    Chimera Industries Cerberus: The 18L, mATX, USA-made enclosure

    I think I may have cooling problem and exhausting the heat. There was definitely something wrong with the motherboard though. Now I haven't gotten a single failure yet playing Siege or any game except once. However, the top of the case gets pretty warm and so does the side panel. I currently...

    Chimera Industries Cerberus: The 18L, mATX, USA-made enclosure

    got my motherboard RMAd yesterday. Ran my usual stuff after rebuilding my entire PC. Hangs again but this time I had a OC. This I swear is only happening ever since I moved into the Cerberus X :(. The hang this time was not nearly screatchy in my headphones as it usually is. Any idea what comes...

    Chimera Industries Cerberus: The 18L, mATX, USA-made enclosure

    Hey Helaton The feet are basically nuts with a one of those locking washers. The bottom of the chassis has screws connected to it. I have taken them off to install 2 of my 140mm fans with the default screws that come with 140mms (not the ones provided by Sliger). Hope that helps.

    Confirmed even with a second PSU the error happens. So it is definitely the motherboard! I was sweeping up the room and I think I found a broken chip off the chipset. I threw it tho. Time to get through asrock RMA

    Chimera Industries Cerberus: The 18L, mATX, USA-made enclosure

    After multiple rotations of my PSU rotation I still hit the issue. So what I think the issue is that my PSU sits ontop of the motherboard ever so slightly. It touches some of the memory dimm electrical components. Is there a possible method for me to basically prevent those components from...

    Chimera Industries Cerberus: The 18L, mATX, USA-made enclosure

    So update. I have reduced my hardware failures a lot. I found my PSUs motherboard inputs weren't fully flush. It did crash once but it seems to be oddly dependent on the fan speeds. I am going to tune the fan speeds more so I get lower dBa. I tried to invert the ATX PSU on the front and have...

    Chimera Industries Cerberus: The 18L, mATX, USA-made enclosure

    It's about 5-6 degrees cooler playing siege. I pulled my PSU out and played with the top off and no system crashes. So I redid my cabling again and instead of craming my cables underneath the PSU. I just let them hang. I got the freeze once when my fan speed was too low. Once I used the preset...

    @MarcParis You can easily put the cooler in. I have LPX Corsair Memory which allows me to put the 3rd fan in easily. The panels can be bent a bit outwards if anything slightly off doesn't fit. I didn't have any issues with it at all.

    I'll post some pictures this weekend of the Scythe Fuma clearance. Sad News guys. MY PC keeps freezing still even after everything. Next I am going to pull the PSU out and run the PC like that see may be doing this. If the PC is passing and not screatching and freezing then I know my problem...
