Don’t waste your money. They increase my temps by 5-10C. Better to just buy a hand vac and blow the dust out if the case once in awhile.

I was able to buy a 3080 FE and 3090 FE. Unfortunately, what I really wanted was to try the 3090 XC3 which seems almost impossible to get. Now, I will probably go 5950x & 3080 FE in a NCASE then move it to Mjolnir later.

I am going to try the EVGA 3090 CX3, but, since hot air is push through the card, it could be a big issue having the MB / PSU blocking it. Yesterday, I bought a NCASE as backup.

I also have Dan A4, backed the Mjolnir Kickstarter for what was going to be my next build, but if there no 3090 2 slot option, I might try the Sliger SM580.

Thanks Alex. Keep up the good work. Can’t wait to get my hands on the case.

I am a KS backer. How can I change my shipping address? I have tried SFF conversation with Alex and through Kickstarter messaging, but have gotten no response.

Does black ridge fit Z390 Strix without modding?

I had a similar problem. I google and tried almost everything, but then, I found this one post. It was simple just start Windows in safe mode which fixed something. After you get to the Windows safe mode desktop, just restart the PC, and hopefully, Windows will boot like normal from then on...

Get / connect a Y splitter to MB, and then, connect 2 fans to that. Best to use the same fans. The pump will connect other header on the MB.

OptimumTech seems do many of his tests in a open bench so it might not be precise in measuring for a SFF environment. Personally, I have both the C7 CU and C7G. In a Dan A4 V2 and running a 9700K @ 4.4GHz, I found the C7G to be 2-3C lower.

I forget to mention, only the C7G comes with fan clips so you don’t need to rig your own or buy others to fit 3rd party fans, like Noctua.

The C7G is 2-3C better since it’s the actually the Copper with Graphene black coating. It’s out of stock, but you can preorder it from: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/cryorig-c7-top-flow-cpu-heatsink-black-hs-014-cy.html

There wasn’t much, if any evidence, so I went ahead and took a few hours and tried myself. My original setup was 2 hand intake which I changed around out to exhaust. It didn’t seem to matter much at first, but after I started warming up the PC. I notice the bottom was getting hot. My RGB...

You n You need a Z390 itx MB. X470 is for AMD CPU. Pretty sure, there aren’t any Z390 ITX MB that has more than 2 ram slots. The best cooling solution is Asetek 545LC AIO or upcoming 645LC AIO. As to whether a black ridge would fit, it’s base on MB cooling heat sink shield configuration...

I installed 2 of the 40mm at the top, they barely move any air, and so, pretty much pointless.
