Fantastic, thanks man. I figured the CPU cooler was probably out. What's the requirements for the PSU? Sorry this is the first time I have tried to build an ITX!

You'll need an SFX PSU. As for your cooler, 2 slot GPU mode allows coolers up to 70mm and 3 slot GPU mode allows coolers up to 50mm

You'll need an SFX PSU, like the Corsair SF600 (which is what I'll be using in my T1 build)! That model & its slightly bigger capacity 750 variant seem to more or less be the gold standard for SFX PSUs (modular cables, good internals, and Gold rating), but I'm not sure if that's changed within the past few months or so.

If I'm not mistaken the 750w Corsair sfx PSU is platinum rated.

Just re-did mine with SF750 cables and replaced my blackridge fan for a noctua. So much better under load haha.


Please ignore the usb cable hanging over the top of the case. I was thinking about putting some rgb strips in the case but I chickened out. I might still do it, but I just wanted it all to come together nicely before I bother with that crud.

Still only 1 cable tie used (on the aio tubes), as it looks like I will need to replace my mobo and cpu as I can still only boot with one ram dimm installed, but I need to save some pennies before I can do that.

Overall very happy.

I did have a bit of a fiddle with trying to fit 2 aios in there. I am sure I could have done it using the LT120 as the second aio and running some absurdly long tube runs, but I honestly am very happy with the thermals using the Blackridge on a delidded 8700k @ 4.4ghz on all cores @ 1.09v vcore.

The case was interesting to put together as when I did it I couldn't get the instructions to load in browser. Since then they are back and have a new version up which look much better. I kinda had to wing it, but it worked out.

Coming from the ncase I find that doing anything inside the case with regard to hardware is painful. But I believe this is more a consequence of the smaller size and the sandwich layout in addition to the mounting method of the Blackridge being screws from behind the board, rather than a mechanism like on bigger coolers.

The case is super solid, and once you get all of your cables and hoses tucked in nicely, everything comes together really easily.

With the stock SF600 cables, it was a bit of a nightmare as those cables are stiff and didnt want to comply, but the sf750 cables made it a breeze.

Very happy with mine and hoping I can get away with either a non-delidded 9600k with a mild overclock or a stock 3900x with the blackridge in this thing depending on which way I swing. Its mostly a gaming rig, so I am thinking the 9600k with a z390 mobo and get better gaming performance than the 3900x since its almost entirely a recreation pc.

Great work on the case @Wahaha360. It looks amazing and minimalist on the desk.

@Wyd4 - Build looks good! what is your current component list for that build?

MSI Pro Carbon z370i (potentially broken)
8700k Delidded @ 4.4ghz @ 1.09v vcore (potentially broken)
Blackridge CPU cooler with Noctua slim 92mm fan
16gb Vengeance LPX 3000mhz ram (currently using 8gb due to above)
Gigabyte RTX 2080ti Windforce w/ corsair aio and kraken g12 mounting bracket (Cant get waterblocks for this gpu) w/ Noctua A12x25
Noctua A12x25 exhaust fan above mobo
Corsair SF600 w/ SF750 cables
Intel 1tb M.2 nvme
1tb Western Digital 2.5" SSD

I think thats about all of consequence.

Are the cables for the sf750 or just for the ad platinum psu's? My friend has a plat sf600 and has braided cables while my sf600 gold has normal cables.

Thanks guys, I decided to go with the the noctua fan seems it seems like a standard (recognise it from all the videos when I was searching for a case haha) and probably the corsair sf600. newegg says 385W for the system so 600 should be fine I guess and the corsair seems to have good reviews and a 7 year warranty?

Thanks again for the help, now I just have to wait for this beautiful case to become more widely available I guess!

Hello all.
Im a fresh to the forum newbie.
So please forgive me if I ask anything seen to be simple or common knowledge.

I can not for the life of me find the website for the Formd-T1
Every other kickstart or manufacturer I have found.
Driving me nuts as I think the Formd-T1 is the case I want.

Unfortnately, the virus situation fucked this product launch by a lot. About the site, it is not yet final and the delays paved way for us to actually vote for the domain where it will be hosted (see poll above)

Please read the first post of this thread again. It says the PSU support is only in SFX form factor. You would also have known that your initial CPU cooler choice is not supported.

So I'm new to water-cooling; would you say this is going to be a problem generally with 120mm AIOs? I've been dreaming about a 3 slot gfx card in this case and something like a Corsair h55 on the CPU (9900K). Would kind of like a simple w/c setup to start with.

Yeah, the problem is the thick quick disconnect feature on the tubes. Normal aio should be fine. It's still a tight fit where you have to put the tubes, but should be possible.

had the same uncertain status (airline departure on 7th and 10th of March) as some other test shippers at the thread above, and was really worried about my parcel, especially because Ukraine closes air traffic from the 17th of March, but finally got the update today that it was released from customs yesterday, and I believe it should be delivered soon

I used to have the cables from the sf600 gold.
these are braided but I can’t speak to whether there is a difference between the platinum 600 or 750 cables. I ordered these ones and use them with the 600 gold psu
I've used two SF600 Platinum and both had braided cables so looks like it's a thing.

''Airline Departure'' appearing twice is likely because there is no direct flight from Guangzhou to Kiev/Kyiv and had to made a stopover (my guess is probably at Paris).

yes, this can be the case, as I remember most parcels from china were delivered to me through Tallinn, Estonia;
just got the call from local post office, that my package is already waiting for me ?

@Proflucifer @Wyd4 @bynio

All platinum versions of the Corsair SF series are supposed to come with sleeved cables.


The cables are one of the reasons for the higher price of the platinum versions, besides the better efficiency.

No clue why @bynio didn't have sleeved cables delivered with his two SF600 platinum....
