Finally, I got to testing. Instead of a 13900K I went the 12900K since Microcenter had such a great deal. I also went with 6800Mhz CL34. I immediately delided it and have been impressed with the results. 96 degrees all core after a long Cinnebench run. i’m happy with the score and very happy...

Hello everyone and welcome to my build log. This will be a slow mover as parts trickle in over the next couple of months. I'm in the process of putting together a new rig featuring the EVGA Z690 Dark and 13900K. I know I know... it's an EATX board. So why am I posting on SFF? Welp, this build...

I have built in a D-Frame Mini, Ncase M1, and Sliger Cerberus X. I would look at the regular Cerberus. The build quality is top notch and it's easy to build in. Plenty of fan layout configurations to either run a front to back or bottom to top air flow scenario. Also, any particular reason for a...

Thank you!

Be my guest! How do you mean? I just used it to do the initial bleeding of the loop. Then, used a syringe to pull out any remaining water in the reservoir and then removed it from the loop.

Thank you! Much appreciated.

Done!

Alright, it’s basically complete!! I’m just waiting on the 2080ti to show up. I decided to sell my 1080ti to a buddy, but still planning on upgrading to a 3080ti as soon as they are released. The cables came from Ensourced and look absolutely fantastic. No matter how hard I tried I’m still not...

Well, I had my first big whoops with this build... It wouldn’t be a sff build without one, but it caught me by surprise nonetheless. As I finally finished my loop and feeling good about it I decided to take it all out and get ready for cables. Well, before that I decide I wanted to put the side...

Well, the copper is finally in and it looks stunning if I’m honest. Pictures don’t do it justice. My wife even thinks it looks nice. ;) I was actually surprised how easy it was to cut as well with one of those little tube cutters. Just keep adding pressure and spin the pipe. I do have one run I...

Alright, I finally made some progress. After battling clearance issues and the like I decided to move the radiator to the bottom. It’s not ideal, but it’ll be setup as exhaust with the GPU right above it. This change really helped with tubing runs As well. Hopefully the GPU isn’t too starved for...

So, a few changes have already been made. I decided to go with custom cables from Ensourced. I've used his cables before in my NCASE M1 and they are great. After taking inventory last night I just didn't have enough supplies nor the patients to do them. I will however need to re-sleeve the power...
