Production FormD T1 Classic (READ FIRST POST)

Guys what is the consensus on antennas? are the tiny ones worth it since you'd probably need to take them off for transport anyway? Isnt better to get the regular sized ones for better wifi performance?

If I'm not mistaken, you'll want proper antennas for 5GHz as the small chubby ones everybody is showing in their build only supports 2.4GHz

Just heard from Noctua that the black NFa12x25 Chromax fans will be released Q1 2021.

Hah! I'll believe it when it happens! Noctua takes their sweet sweet time...

If only EK or someone else make a monoblock for the X570i platform, I'd gladly switch over

Bitspower does! But for ASRock x570i though:

And here is what I have so far, a cheap color way swap for T1 front panels. I've got a couple print quality issues that I'm still ironing out. Just for fun!

That's because Q1 2021 is still some time away No but seriously it's on their roadmap.

Dont these support 5ghz? https://www.taoglas.com/product/gw-05-2-45-8ghz-monopole-antenna-rpsmam-hinged/

Those look like FPV antennas from what I've heard, I would NOT put those on your motherboard or they could cause major problems for the board.

I used to have that board, Intel mounting style, yikes ...

I'm currently using that board, minus the stock VRM heatsink.
That monoblock is news to me! Although I still prefer not having the stock heatsink.

Hey @fabio,
Looking at your build, I counted (6) 90 degree fittings while you were using the DC-LT 2600 and the DC-LT 40. Do you recall/did you measure what your flow rate was at max pump speed (or other pump speeds?)

is there an official 5ghz antenna recommendation for the t1 so far?

Official? Use what you want. Do the research on everyone's recommendation and see what works for you. This kind of thing is NOT one size fits all solution. Everyone has a different use case based on their needs.

Dang it, XSPC TX 240 is not being manufactured at the moment and local retailers have had their orders terminated so I've been refunded and am now having to rethink which radiator I use. Does triple A12x15 work with an EK SE240 CLASSIC?

That sucks.

I believe it is possible. I recall seeing someone have triple 15mm fans on the EK or might have been the AIO version. Either way the thickness is comparable. I'd take to reddit and snoop at peoples builds. PSU cables are the biggest factor I think.

Yeah I'd definitely leave the 3rd fan til I get some PSlate cables.

I have 2x A12x15 + 1x A12x25 on the EK AIO rad, so 3x A12x15 is easy.

Running H100i Pro RGB with 3x A12x15. It's not hard and about the same perf as 25mm fan. If anyone is struggling a lot with NF-A12x15 + NF-A12x25 Configuration due to slim fan's motor hub touching the motherboard then this is a lot easier. You only need to remove the Anti Vibration Stickers on the fan's on top of the radiator and in between the top panel. The fan above the below the radiator and above the PSU can keep the pads no clearance issue there. But, I am using a fan grill so that might make AIO tubing, PSU cables easier to manage.

I’ve measured 70-72 l/h at 100% speed and 16/10 tubing.

Perfect, thanks for confirming!

Hi @gwertheim , when you get a chance can you see if my support email made it the support email. I Have some anodization issues with my case. Thanks!

 

[gregbiv]

Guys, I am new in water-cooling. Since there is a little space for a proper reservoir I was wondering, I saw lots of builds people leave some air in the reservoir. Are there any disadvantages to not have one? Can the water expand (boil) and get away from the loop?

I am going to build a loop using Bitspower Magic-cube with DDC.

I don't have access to the emails, Wahaha360 is working through them as fast as he can
