Completed MJOLNIR: The minimalistic – but not boring – 9.7L Case

[AlexTzone]

A few new updates on twitter! Black Friday congestion has cleared up at our freight forwarder, so I just received pics/news from the that our cases are being processed right now. This means tracking numbers are being generated and sorted, which I'll send out the instant I get them.

For the next shipping round (next week), we're planning to continue to ship standard packages (like this time) + standalone risers + BORGs & riser bundles.

God forbid you would give a meaningful update Alex.

Here is an example-

"We have shipped 279 of 643 cases, once the remaining cases have shipped in the next 2 weeks we will them ship the riser cables, then the Borg & ris r bundles, then the replacement parts. We expect this proces to take another 6 working weeks, not including holiday shutdowns"


Now you try........

Is everything being sent out at the appropriate speed/service level?

I paid €‎42 for shipping what amounts to a shoebox from Asia, which would indicate courier (DHL/FedEx/UPS) service & not postal mail.

IIRC it's DHL express - I paid a similar amount - so I'd expect it next working day

I remember what was said. There's just often a difference between what is said & how it's done with Thor Zone, so I'd like some explicit confirmation from TZ directly.

My bad, I misread your post. I too would love confirmation, will inevitably only find out once tracking number comes through

We ship using express with either DHL, UPS, FedEx or SFexpress, so 4-5 days is standard.

We've sent out the first 200 tracking numbers now (shipping 20% complete), time to schedule another pickup by the freight forwarder and continue shipping

Yay, got my tracking number earlier today, guess I'm one of the lucky 200.

Can't wait for the case to arrive!

 

[AlexTzone]

Additional 171 cases are currently being prepared to be picked up and shipped, taking total shipping from 20% to 37%! We expect to send out the tracking numbers later this week.

 

[AlexTzone]

Despite being a billion years delayed, I have to say...actually shipping things out is the best feeling running this whole show. The next best thing is seeing that people actually care about something you've created, but yes, nothing beats fulfilling a promise. Now if we could cut down on delays etc it would make it infinitely better. I have a pretty good idea of where we're disorganized, mostly stuff under our control (sending stuff to production in time, knowing true MOQ requirements, calculate lead times properly (not just having a vague idea of it in memory), plan ahead of production, plan ahead of replacement parts), so I'm hopeful.

So this whole thing was 1000 computer cases

Anyone able to put an 7950X with a 240mm AIO cooler in this thing?

Not gonna happen without mods. You also will only be able to have one fan on the 240. Your better off using a 120 aio or going for a custom loop with external radiators like I did.

Not even in eco mod, maxing out at 105wattage on the CPU?

 

[runsamok]

A thin 240 with one fan on it won't dissipate heat any better than a 120, regardless of the wattage involved.

Mjolnir isn't really built to fit a 240mm AIO.

Im not saying you cant run the 7950x, you can run that fine stock with a 120 aio. Its the 240 aio that wont happen without mods and is pretty pointless.

Am I wrong in the belief that 105w + 120mm AIO is already pushing the boundaries of heat management in this case? Especially with the GPU exhaust pushing directly into the AIO intake, that little thing is going to be at max pump and fan speed trying to dissipate that much heat.

I have a 5700x (65w) for that reason. I would feel uneasy putting a 170w beast in there with even the best 120mm AIO. Happy to be proven wrong though

Despite being built/designed around 2018-2019 high-end power levels & part sizes, the Mjolnir is perfectly capable of holding a 105w processor at the stock levels. I’ve kept full speed & full boost clocks on my 5800X during 90 minute compile jobs where 16 threads are running 100% the entire time.
Given how the 7000 series processors are tolerant of heat all the way up through thermal envelope it’s conceivable that one should work as well.

Depends on the fan you stick on the radiator. Id also run the aio fan as intake and the secondary case fan as exhaust plus use the booster cell as exhaust for this situation. Its gonna be noisy but it would work.
