Seems to be a reported issue regarding 4090s. Taylor is in touch with the MFG of the riser cable.

I will always take better materials, quality, and finish over cost. The Slate has a few issues, but it really is a phenomenal case. I'd like to see support for 25mm fans across the board, and a revision to the thumb nuts for mounting. Outside of those issues, the case hits so many of my...

Updated thread with new stuff for sale.

Just a slight word of caution for anyone who needs to go with the Noctua 140-120mm fan adapters, the NF A12x15 fans do not fit out of the box. You'll need to take a Dremel or sander to the insides of the frames of the adapters on all four sides. There's too much material to slot the fans in...

Well, good news, because if you actually get 15mm fans, it should work, as the Arctic's are really 18mm in height. I think the adapter probably adds 1-2mm. You'll probably have to cut the screw mounts down on the adapter plate, though.

Mine is set up as a wind tunnel as I have the sandwich layout in horizontal orientation. The lower 240 pulls the air from the bottom and the upper 240 has fans pushing out the top. With a 3080 and a 10900k, my water temp has been topping out at about 48c with the fans controlled at 1200RPMs.

I'm curious about this too. Cos these Arctic's are just absolutely pissing me off at this point. I'm thinking about ordering the blackout slims with the 140 adapter. Haven't posted final pics since the build isn't technically done since one of my fans decided to bind on itself and I can't get...

I've never used iCue as I've heard nothing but horror stories. Aquacomputer's fabwerk is alright. The interface is a bit confusing, but it actually works.

Yeah, I don't think the case he used is available anymore, but I'll find something for it. It's an impressive piece of tech.

I dunno.... I just put money down on a Wooting, and while it doesn't have an aluminum case, I think the analog functionality is going to be a superior experience (especially in games). The cost of this unit is pretty high and has features I'd never use (BT, wireless charging), but I'd still...

Razer be like: $279 PLUS our uber-intrusive, always need to be logged in, horrific drivers and the fact it will completely stop working within 3 months! What a deal!

It wouldn't surprise me that the washers helped a bit, too. It seems as if the frames on these fans bend when screwed down. I thought "wow, slim fans for 12 bucks, what a deal!" After more than a decade in this industry, I should know better. Keep in mind all of mine are horizontal, so they...

Are we talking about the slim Arctic 140s (refresh my memory)? If that's the case, YES. These things... The amount of wobble on them is insane. I have 2 that are useable out of the 4 I bought. HAd 1 wobble so bad it broke a blade after I had already freed it from the radiator, another one...

Me: Taylor, What are you doing? Taylor: Making a bad ass case that fulfills all of your needs. Me: It's not possible. Taylor: No.... It's Necessary.

Hey! Chicks dig jank!
