This looks great! So the colors are the same as the old ncase m1, one black and one silver? Are there any plans for a grayish color (like something in between black and silver, think nr200p max)?

Sorry for the late response and I assume the answer is not relevant for you any longer, but I do run them on the same header with an adapter.

@Necere Any news on the reverse cable? And also the locking plastic thing for the side panels? Im waiting to order these spare parts! Should I contact sfflabs and ask them?

There was 2 spare ones, but there was also two empty slots in my case when I got it shipped, so I immediately inserted them there. No extra spare for me unfortunately. Please ask sfflab to get them on stock or give me a way to order them somehow. Anyway just wanna say thanks for this amazing...

So I just managed to break one of the side panel sockets. See picture. So right now I want to buy some spare sockets and a reversed power cable. Are these gonna be available for me to purchase from sfflab @Necere? I know you have said the power cable may come into stock soon, but what about...

So im back with some more info. I have learned two things the past few days: 1. Using Small FFTs as a benchmark is not very realistic, especially not with the latest Prime 95. My point is that no real world scenario would have resulted in 90c+ temps from what I could tell, so it would actually...

I was able to fit 2 SSDs at the front with only a slight gap. See pictures.

So I just repasted the CPU, this time with more paste. The cooler was fitted very good with no obvious obstacles in the way. Unfortunately the results are almost the same for benchmarks. Havent had the time to play BFV yet. Software CPU temp (max) GPU temp (max) Cinebench R20 (2 times in a...

Thank you for the input, I will definitely try repasting it with more paste. I suspect this as well, maybe my motherboard (which isnt the most popular) gives it too much voltage. During a 5 minute Prime95 (v26.6, Small FFTs) run I get 1.314v on the highest core. I know I saw 1.35 something in...

Thanks for the input @JoShmo. I run it at stock so far and I have underclocking on the agenda in the future, but first I wanna make sure everything is installed and working as expected as a baseline. I will look into the thermal paste. I am used to put a pea in the middle and let the CPU cooler...

Nice build! Would appreciate it if you could report your temperatures in the 9900k thread I set up here: https://smallformfactor.net/forum/threads/9900k-in-ncase-m1.11617/ Im struggling with cooling my 9900k.

So I decided to spend this evening simply reversing every fan I have and then run the tests again. So with this new setup I use the two bottom A12x25 as Intake, I reversed both the CPU fans for the C14S to blow fresh air from the side of the chassi straight on to the CPU/motherboard, and I...

I ended up going for 9900k with C14S, and it did fit my Aorus motherboard perfectly. Made a thread about my build here: https://smallformfactor.net/forum/threads/9900k-in-ncase-m1.11617/

I got my silver a few days ago and I can say that I am still very happy with my choice. Wouldnt want to change.

So I finally got my case this monday, what a nice piece of hardware this is. Was really fun to build in, challenging compared to the big ATX cases I am used to. My initial plan was to get a 9700k, but I got a very good offer for a new 9900k that I could not refuse. So here I am, trying to air...
