    You could always try a chargeback if you put it on a credit card.

    Can the Winter One really take 2x280 and a D5? Last time I checked it was a bit tight for that.

    You could also try the Loque Ghost S1 + two hats.

    O11 Dynamic Mini could be a good option! Otherwise, there are options from Sliger that might work too.

    That really sucks, I'm sorry... It's a very frustrating situation. This was my first group by experience with a computer case and considering the size of investment, I can't say I would do it again with a case small-batch producer that doesn't have a history of successful releases. It's really...

    Looks like you are! That's a crazy amount of modding you did there, fair play! How is that NoiseBlocker fan compared to the noctuas btw?

    Two options come to mind, both kind of dumb but perhaps workable :) Switch the position of radiator and fans so that the radiator is facing out. That way even if the filter is rubbing directly against the rad, it won't do no harm Stick the filter on the outside! If you just wrap it in magnetic...

    Thanks for the details! I'm doing the same - leaving one side completely open right now. Waiting for a white magnetic dust filter to arrive and planning to use that as the sidepanel going forward. Will post pics once it arrives.

    I'm using the EKWB D5 and installed it twice into the distro - went fine both times. 😕

    I've asked a bunch of questions on the forum but got no replies. You could try discord but I haven't had any success there either.

    You have glass panels on both sides? What's the direction of your airflow?

    One note on the temperature target mode that simulates PID behavior. I was somewhat disappointed with it because it only starts operating once the temperature target is breached. Until that point, the fans just spin at minimum speed you set. What that means is that it will always overshoot the...

    Thanks! That's what I did, but it seems like the soft sensor curves only work when Aquasuite is running. They are not part of the profile that gets uploaded directly onto the hardware (QUADRO). Regardless, it works pretty well, there's a dozen ways to control the ways, having a bit of analysis...

    I opened up my Optimus block and cleaned out the cat hairs that were stuck inside 🤦‍♂️ Also replaced the thermal paste with liquid metal. It made a massive difference, the average temps under load fell by almost 10 degrees. The 5900x doesn't exceed 70 under load any more. I've also bumped up the...
