I just bought an MSI Ventus 2x 3060Ti, which fits in the NCASE with ease, but now I realise that I should probably get hold of some custom cables, since those coming out the Corsair SF600P I have are quite stiff and thick, and clearly not designed with SFF in mind, despite the PSU being an SFF...

I have a 3700x with Noctua NH-U9S (haven't got an extra fan on it) and am thinking about upgrading my gpu to a 3080 (probably ASUS TUF, since it seems to have good thermals and just about fits), but am a bit worried about heat with such a huge, powerful card. I really don't want to watercool...

I totally gave up waiting for the x570 Strix and bought a 3700x + Asus B450-I Strix bundle for a whisker under $500. Still not cheap, but I was done with waiting and checking Amazon every day. Fairly happy with how everything works, but the Wraith Spire is too noisy, and my SF-600 has a wee bit...

The corsair sf600 does include an adaptor, so I might try this, but like you say, with the PSU cables, it does feel a bit less likely to cause a problem. However, I'd definitely beef up the bracket for the next iteration, as it does detract a little from the overall high quality feel of the case...

Are you going to make an NCase M1 V6 parts guide? I am just building my V6 now (first SFF build), and just attached the PSU (Corsair SF-600) to the bracket that was on the case when it arrived, but I'm worried about the weight of the PSU on the 3 screws that hold the bracket onto the case...

Looks like I should have had my case today, but wasn't home. Should get it tomorrow morning! I also gave in and ordered all my parts last night, and they should also be arriving tomorrow. Ended up going with 3700x and Asus B450-I board as there was a deal to get ~$50 off if bought together...

Mine is in customs about 60km away! Should arrive any day now :D I'd better order the rest of my parts (everything but the case). Still really not sure what to do about motherboard though... x570 or B450

When I checked just now, it cost $127 to upgrade to the Strix ? ... ? Here in Japan the Gigabyte board is nearly $300 on Amazon, and the ASRock board is around $370 ? God only knows what ridiculous price we'll be asked to pay when Asus release their boards here. I was really excited to be...

Yeah, I'm holding out to see what the prices are like and how well they fit with various components (due to large heatsinks etc.) before deciding on which board to get. x570 prices are a bit on the high side, so I wanna get the right board. There have been a couple of youtube vids (no reviews...

I'm in the M1 + AM4 boat, waiting for the case to arrive and will then probably buy all the parts I need, but the lack of ITX boards with the 20 pin connector is annoying. This looks by far the best option so far. Do all the front panel USB ports connect through this, or is it just for the...
