LIAN LI H2o build

Hi guys, here is my build.

Case: LIAN LI H2o - with custom plexiglass side panel and custom front panel with AX206 display. The front panel is made by my, with my bare hands. The click on system is made from rivets. And the panel is made from 2 sheets of aluminium. One is pierced so i can glue (metal compound glue) the rivets to the sheet. After, the second sheet was glued to the first. So it ca be a strong bound. It is nice but i am thinking to get a bigger case. I want to buy a Zalman P10 case, i am still thinking... Because i am afraid it is too big for my taste.

Mobo: AsRock PHANTOM GAMING Z890I Nova WiFi
CPU: Intel ultra 5 245K
RAM: KLEVV CRAS V 32GB
CPU cooler: EKWB EK-Nucleus CPU AIO CR240 Dark
PSU: ASUS ROG Loki SFX-L 1000W Platinum
GPU: Gainward GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER GHOST
SSD: Kingston FURY Renegade 1TB PCI Express 4.0 x4 M.2 2280


Now i am waiting for 2 fans: ARCTIC AC P12 Max PWM. To swap the ones from the radiator. I've wanted to buy be quiet! Silent Wings PRO 4 120mm PWM.
But i've seen they cannot run faster than 1700rpm. I've tried everything, no luck. With a ID Cooling and the EK ones, they work fine on the cpu_fan header, the be q one... they just don't want to go higher than 1700rpm.

I wanna try the ID Cooling frost X45 thermal paste (now i'm using MX6). https://www.tomshardware.com/best-picks/best-thermal-paste
They got second place (just because it isn't on the US market). But it appear to be the best thermal paste (non conductive).

Happy holidays to all!

Guess the Loki is, so you never gonna hear the PSU fan powering up? Cause else those specs feel a bit OP.
To compare, I got a 7950X + RTX 4070, and the SF750 is completely bored even under full load - both in the original A4-H2O build, the S400 "FU" Edition and even now in the K77 Lite work-in-progress build

Hi, the price was too good to deny the deal.

I've made myself a new mesh front panel. I've modded 2 fans in the front.

The front was made 100% by me. From aluminium plate + pop rivets (for the click on system) + O11D EVO RGB Front Mesh Kit

At least I now know what to do with said kit
Originally ordered it to repurpose the fan mounting rails for MY A4-H2O 280 mod, but that didnt work out as expected.

And i am a bit frustrated on Asrock Polychrome RGB. My Klevv memories were just perfect (100% synced) without software installed (i refuse to install them).
I've installed Asrock Polychrome RGB and it messed up my RAM rgb, they are out of sync now. I've system restore, bios update. Nothing works. Even in BIOS they are getting out of sync.
After that i've read that software is a total fail.... Now i am a sad unsynced dude.

RGB control software is like smarthome solutions: every brand want their own solution and nobody makes a good product, so there needs to be some open source project that does it all without being a sore. Like for instance OpenRGB: https://openrgb.org/

That's the reason i havent installed them... and now that polychrome messed up my ram firmware (i think). Because i don't see another reason why did they worked (without any rgb software installed) fine until now.
But whatever... i refuse to install any rgb software, i'll let them be (unsync).
