NCASE M1 v6.1 build

[dragos]

Hi, team, i am new here, in a couple of days my ncase will arrive and my next step is to transfer everything from my evolve shift

9700k with big shuriken 3
z390 phantom itx
32gb platinum 3200mhz
sf750w platinum
strix 2080ti

At the moment i have this system in a phanteks evolve shift without the side panels and the temp are ok at room temp 25
cpu idle 35-40 load 60-65
gpu idle 29-35 load 55-65

I am planning to get 5 Noctua nf-a12x25 and 1 Noctua nf-a9
one a12 will be on the big shuriken
two a12 intake on the side bracket
two a12 on the bottom under the gpu exhausting (the gpu will be deshrouded and with the stock fans removed)
the 92mm will exhaust on the back

I am assuming that is a little overkill with 5 a12x25 but i am curious if the temps will stay at least the same as in the pantheks

any suggestions and ideas?

Nothing wrong with your build, however have you considered upgrading the CPU cooler to something like a Noctua U9S or C14S? For the price of the three A12 fans (CPU and intake) which you wouldn't need you could purchase one of those two coolers and have better CPU temps. You could also consider mounting an AIO to the side panel if you'd prefer to go that route.

the difference is about 1-3 degrees if i go from shuriken 3 to one of those noctua and ive seen in some reviews that a nzxt x52 goes up to 70c in ncase on a 9700k stock....my 9700k is runs at stock with 1.115v first i want to see how it performs in the ncase then i will buy the noctua fans or maybe and aio

NH-U9s intake or exhaust?

If you're using bottom fans in exhaust with a deshrouded GPU or Accelero, definitely intake. If the GPU is intake then probably exhaust, but I don't have any data to back that up. I run a C14S in my build.
