Order placed! My NCASE M1 v6 won't have to stand empty for too much longer.


I went with the AMD Ryzen 5 3600 which is on sale for $155


The RAM was a tougher decision: I chose to get 32GB of HyperX Fury 3733MHz (Non RGB). It uses SK Hynix DJR while the RGB version uses Micron J.

I'll probably run the RAM at 3600MHz and see if I can tighten up the timings a bit.

I was also looking at some G.Skill options, but I also like that the Non RGB HyperX is only 34mm in height, and it may end up in another smaller case in the future, where a lower profile module could make a difference.


I also picked up 2 of the Arctic P12 PWM PST CO fans. The Non CO versions were impressive in a recent Optimum Tech video, and I'm hoping the improved bearings in these are as good or better. Didn't even know about the PST option, which allows you to daisy chain the fans from one another, but it looks like it should make for neater cabling than a fan splitter and extension would.


I'm awaiting pricing from a supplier sometime tomorrow on the MSI MPG B550I.
