Production FormD T1 Classic (READ FIRST POST)

Increase volume from 9.8L to 10.5L to support MSI Suprim X 30XX?

  • Yes, worth the trade off to be more compatible with components

    Votes: 116 24.6%
  • No, not worth it b/c it is not better than the ROG 30XX, which fits now at <10L

@Wahaha360 Are the measurements for the T1 version 1.5 that are given in the opening post something I can count on?
If so I am ordering a TX240 because the chromax 25mm fans should hit the market this fall and that would be something I want to build.

TLDR:
- Still less than 10L, either 9.8 or 9.95L, currently 135x220x335mm
- 46mm under the mobo for Radiator + Fan, 20.5mm TX240 radiator + *dual 25mm thick fans, 27 or 30mm thick radiator + *dual 15mm slim fans
- Support dual 240mm radiator setup, with 48mm CPU cooler height left for Pump & Res combo
- Will support both ROG 30XX and MSI Gaming X Trio 30XX, debating MSI Suprim X 30XX support, it's 13mm longer and will push volume over 10L
- Support 1.25, 1.50, 1.75, 2, 2.25, 2.50, 2.75, 3, 3.25 GPU Slots for more GPU vs CPU space allocation possibilitie
The 46mm under the motherboard. Is that in the 2 slot configuration? I do not see how you can fit a tx240, 25mm fans and a gpu with only 46mm.

Am I missing something?

Space below the motherboard doesn't interfere with the GPU at all, so the 46mm is for 21mm of radiator + 25mm of fan.

I'm not sure if this is allowed here, so please remove my post if so, but I've decided to stick with my Meshlicious and will be selling my Formd T1. For collection only in London at the moment, though I'll put it up for UK delivery if no one is available. I'm not looking to make a profit at all, just sell it as well as a 240mm rad, DC-LT pump and noctua fans as a bundle at cost price. £361.61 is the total price. PM me for details and break down of cost / items. Additionally I have a Hanjiang 17mm rad if anyone is interested with 2 x scythe slim fans for £53.

Would it be possible to grab a v1.1 before this? I prefer the smaller size (if i understood correcty)

Thank you for the update,

I was hoping you could explain the GPU clearance difference between the current model and the upcoming model.

How much space is behind the mobo to the mesh side panel?

Thank you

Thanks for the transparency in the update process! I'd be very interested to hear about the NCase m1 layout kit, seeing as I already own an NH-C14s. I assume that this means a conventional layout without a riser?

Would the formd v1.5 support 240mm EK AIO + 2x 25mm full size fans (such as the noctuas) which are a popular configuration option (instead of having to compromise with 15mm slim fans)?

Yes, waiting for some parts before we release.

Size difference between V1.1 and V1.5, visually no difference to the eye, just 3mm taller and 2mm wider, and 5mm deeper, you can’t tell the difference.

Is the tempered glass side panel an option or the default?

Optional. This new TG panel allows airflow, for cooling sake, so the cost really bit crazy because the yield is terrible, right now nearly 1 out 20 will succeed, so imagine breaking twenty glass panels to get one working, this is why is quite expensive.
