For anyone looking to update to F11G looks like there are some issues (reddit discussion).

@AlexTSG @scatterforce I finally got the spacers (and other goodies as apology from the delay) from Noctua. They were really accommodating. Height is about 3mm.

Oof. The more I'm reading about this the more I just want to cancel my pre-order. :(

I plan to have a button for this as well but found from the sffpc subreddit the following: I'm not sure where he got this info and if it's accurate, but might be useful to try.

Yeah he did state that in the video but I think it'll go past others notice. The unfortunate thing is that marketing/support is the frontline that has most contact with consumers, and not the actual engineers themselves.

Ok. Just got an updated email from Noctua apologizing for the long delay. They said they'll be sending the parts to install the l9a on this using spacers (no backplate). I'll post a pic here when I receive them.

I already did this. And they replied to me that they'll be sending optional parts. I've been following up since with no other replies.

Alright. Seems like the best option really is to use dremel on the l9a backplate. I'll see what I can come up with. I'm seriously disappointed in Noctua's customer support after promising they'd send optional parts for proper installation of the l9a to this motherboard, then never replied back...

Thanks. That's good info. Do you think adding spacers to raise the AM4 standard backplate of the l9a will work? Or does it need to be flush against the board.

Would anyone know if using 2mm washers/spacers to mount the Noctua l9a-AM4 (without backplate) work fine? Or will it still need backplate support? Noctua support told me before they'd send optional parts for installation but I have not heard from them since 2 weeks ago. Thinking if I should just...

Both were available. Only shipping date available was July 31. EDIT: No PCIE option was also removed if anyone was wondering.

Hopefully a useful tip for newcomers like me! I understand 400 pages may be daunting but there's a ton of really interesting and useful information in it! Been a rabbit hole for me for a week now. I also miss some things that should have already been answered previously, but appreciate the...

Been following thread discussion on dust filters, but was there anyone in the build list who tested the thermal differences? Curious if adding only one filter at the bottom panel (with a flipped orientation - top as exhaust) will have any negative effect. Or will dust not accumulate as much at...

Hi! Will the Flex-VRC-25 riser cable from Fractal Design work as replacement? (210mm PCIe 3.0) I have no plans of using a PCIe 4.0 compatible riser and unfortunately the Link-UP or 3M cables are not available locally in my region for purchase...

Hi! I'm new to ITX building but been very interested in starting my journey with this case. Can anyone confirm if the Sapphire Pulse RX 5700XT (2.3 slot) could be mounted in the dual slot gpu plate without any issues? Also with regards to height limits (140mm with 15-20mm allowance for the pcie...
