    Buying [USA-NC] Console or Vertical Layout Case

    I'm in the market for a case to replace my NCASE M1. I'm looking to reduce the footprint of my system. The case must accept a dedicated graphics card. SFX support or something more exotic and passively cooled. I'm not interested in going down the flex ATX route again. Ship to 28107 Let me...

    Closed Price Check - NCASE M1 build w/ RTX 2080 and Ryzen 3600

    Hi all, During the past couple of years I've grown apart from gaming and I'm tired of underutilizing this computer. I'm pretty far removed from computer hardware at this point and would like some help with the pricing on the main components and as a whole computer. I'm not sure if I'm going to...

    NCASE M1 - Cheap case swap to custom loop

    It took me an embarrassing amount of time to get this thing put together. I didn't have enough 90 degree fittings, I ordered the wrong size "low profile" compression fittings, the quick disconnects were a lot larger than I predicted and placing the side mounted radiator closer to the motherboard...

    NCASE M1 - Cheap case swap to custom loop

    Made a little progress. Confirmed that the EK FLT res will not fit under the GPU with fittings, even with the pump hanging out of the bottom of the case. I had to rearrange the side panel with the fan on the outside and radiator closer to the motherboard. One of the fittings on the GPU was...

    NCASE M1 - Cheap case swap to custom loop

    I had hoped something like that would've been possible but there isn't enough clearance. This is the side panel, I doubt I'll make much more progress over the next few days

    NCASE M1 - Cheap case swap to custom loop

    I tried to do a test build with just the CPU and 120mm rad while I wait on the rest of my parts. The Bitspower Summit MS waterblock I purchased doesn't work with my motherboard. The backplate is huge and conflicts with something on the motherboard. Honestly I'm glad I'm not keeping it because...

    V6, 9900KF, Thermalright Silver Arrow, 2080 Super with Accelero III

    The Silver Arrow 130 has been a huge disappointment on my Ryzen 3600 but I think it has something to do with my CPU or maybe even just the way the cooler performs with AMD hardware. What are cpu temps like under load with the Silver Arrow 130? Are you using a side mounted exhaust fan? I had my...

    NCASE M1 - Cheap case swap to custom loop

    Yeah I know... another watercooled NCASE M1. Tl;dr - This whole thing is really just an exercise in keeping myself busy with everything that's going on. A busier me would've just used an NH-C14S and Arctic Acellero III like everyone else. I've been bored at home and decided that it was time...

    Alphenföhn Blackridge with NF-A 12x15 on B450i for upcoming Mjolnir (Air cooled)

    Just pointing something out that you might not have noticed... my Aorus B450 I has the exact same wound from the Black Ridge. I'm pretty sure that I did it uninstalling the cooler.

    Production Lazer3D - LZ XTD - Alternative Designs

    I've had some time to play around with the Silver Arrow 130 and a Cryorig XT 140. The XT 140 was noisy due to turbulence so I installed a NF-A12x15 that I had on hand and don't get any noise with it, so its found its home. I really cant recommend the Silver Arrow over the NH-D9S with the stock...
