Ended up pulling the X62 out of my SM580 and tossed HydroX blocks on my 3900X and Strix 2080Ti externally cooled by MO-RA3 420. Not that my temps were bad without the watercooling; Just would rather use the MORA than have it sit in the closet. One small note the Aorus ITX I/O shield looks like...

Wow! Nice work here and hopefully everyone had a great holiday!

I don't mind it, but it doesn't seem like I will be using it very often. Ended up pulling it out for the time being... might put back in when I get some custom cables and update the fans.

Yeah, I dunno coil whine was the same on FTW3 with EVGA 750G3 and Corsair SFX750 Plat. But things seem smooth now. Trying to get quotes for some unsleeved cables from DreambigByRay on Etsy. Debating on snagging a couple more Arctic 140mm's to replace the NZXT fans on the X62 or just swapping...

Up and running until I nab some custom cables and possibly some other 140mm fans. Picked up a Strix while I wait for my FTW3 rma to be done; I must have gotten lucky seeing as the Strix has no coil whine; while all 3 of the FTW3 cards I had all had obnoxious coil whine.

Anyone mind sharing custom cable lengths for SM580? Thinking about getting some unsleeved cables made for it, just curious about the lengths. After moving and dealing with just the MORA3 just being large, going to give my FTW3! Stock cooler another shot see if I can get temps under control...

What GPU are you cooling with it and what fans are you using if you don't me asking of course.

Updates from my SM580, Issues with the stock FTW3 cooler insanely high temps. I think I need or order some fresh thermal pads maybe. Ended up tossing the hydrocopper back on it and the EK Velocity block with my MORA3 420 with D5 Heatkiller tube. Temps are pretty close to my former setup on the...

Gigabyte has been pretty good to me. Always want to mess with stuff, I should probably just skip it since I already have it in hand. That both Z390 and X570 Aorus Masters have treated me well. Either way, pretty excited. Might replace the fans on the X62 with some Arctics or Noctua Chromax...

Okay, so my SM580 came yesterday. Found out the Arctic 280mm is too thick... Interferes with the clip upper clip mechanism. And even if it did fit there the hose are insanely rigid and the block does not rotate at all with them at all. So I called it a wash, sending it back (well soon at least)...

Well finally pulled the trigger on the gear to downsize my 3900X build. Aorus X570 ITX board, Corsair SF750, Sliger SM580 Gray with vented panels. Snagged one of the Arctic AIO's if I decide to run my MO-RA3 420 externally. Will probably do the water first and possibly switch to AIO/Air on my...

Thanks for the pictures!

So do all of the holes not line up? Or is it just a couple. Sorry to ask so many questions. And hmm if it performs well I could handle it rubbing the panel.

I think he's said there wasn't going to be a revision 2... I've been trying to play catch up with the thread. Anyone mind pointing out the issues with the EVGA psu's? I'm finally planning on downsizing, just not sure if I'm going to do external custom water with my MO-RA3 or not. Another...

Hell yeah! MORA3's are awesome, I have one myself... really wanting to downsize cases to an M1; I'm curious to see how you end up setting up your wiring from the M1 to the pump/fans.
