NCASE M1 V6 info

Does anyone know if the CPU socket is in the same height for x570i and B450i Aorus, someone in Reddit managed to fit the C14S in the B450i so if it's the same as the x570 there is a chance.
seems to be the same position on both aorus boards compared to the more standard position (red box)

Thank you! I can get the C14S for $50 cash with a month of use, so I'll just need to figure out how the reddit user snugged it in.seems to be the same position on both aorus boards compared to the more standard position (red box)
@Necere Is it still possible to get the v5-style side panels? I'm aware of the possible loss in heat dissapation, but still prefer the look though. (Actually No holes at all would be even better for me, but I dont think that's an option)
p.s. is the v 6.1 psu barcket compatible with v6 case, and will it provide any possible bonus ?

The old side panels are no longer available.
Yes, V6/V6.1 SFX brackets are interchangeable. No major difference, the newer one just limits the range of motion the PSU can have.
Hi,
I am trying to place an order for a M1 case but there's no option to pick Germany (or "Deutschland") in the country dropdown for the shipping address. How do I get this case delivered here? Looking at this thread, people form Germany seem to have ordered the case before - and recently. Maybe someone who had the case shipped here can point me in the right direction?! Thanks.

They paused the shipping to Germany because the case doesn't have the CE certification and it was being intercepted by customs in Germany.
It seems they will get the certification and resume shipping. For now you have to wait, or maybe use a proxy from a different country?

Thanks for the info. I actually remember reading about that, bit didn't connect the dots...
Using a proxy might work, but the risk of interception by customs remains. I guess I'll wait until they receive the CE certification.
@Necere Maybe you could update the first post once the certification comes through? Thanks.
the only part that needs the CE certification is the cable. And getting CE for that shouldn't be a problem. I had my fair share with german customs in the past and also problem about stupid CE requirements. For example I had the issue that an included charger was also missing the CE cert. After some discussion I could take everything else with me, but had to leave the charger (which will get destroyed). I bought a different one. The same should be possible with the NCASE. In case customs gives you trouble, just argue to let them keep the cable, but let you take the rest. The other cables do not require CE as there is not much power going through them. Customs have zero ground to reject the case without the power cable. And with this information added, NCase should start shipping to germany again. In a lot of cases nobody at customs will care anyways.
i canceled order for black one, hope they get soon silver on stock
btw how fast are pre-orders gone? i was not able to catch silver M1

Late Feb/March, as it says on the website.
Previous order periods for V6/6.1 have sold out in 3-4 days.
Edit: the cases that were available earlier were just a handful from cancelled orders. Normally the restock notification doesn't go out when it's just a few, but one person cancelled an order for 15 cases which was over the threshold and the notification did go out. Apologies for that, it wasn't supposed to and it was an oversight on my part not to change the limit beforehand.

Really hope you charged the 15 case order person a restocking fee. It's so frustrating to see resellers asking double the price for the case right now.
Yes, this is happening locally in my country. I'm seeing people are reselling at $300-$400 USD for the V6. Pity those who really want it but couldn't get it on time.
Hello Fellow Enthusiasts!
I am a healthcare designer and I needed a small yet powerful PC for modeling and rendering, I was sick of keeping two computers maintained as I work both on-site (5-hour drive one way) and at home. After a ton of research, this build seemed to be the best solution.
Build 1 (Air Cooled) I was doubtful that air cooling would be enough for the 3950X, but I had to try since I absolutely hate AIO coolers, however, this configuration performed better than I expected! Under normal workload and with my modeling software the temps were respectable, however, when rendering my models with V-ray the CPU temp would climb into the 80’s and that is a bit high for my liking. I would’ve likely been able to get the temps down with the fans set to 100% but I do A LOT of rendering and that’s obviously not an ideal situation.
Build 1 (Air Cooled)
AMBIENT: 21c
Anti-Aliasing: 16x (love the RTX 4000 BTW ?)
CPU GPU CPU RPM GPU RPM
IDLE: 38c 34c 600 1500
MODELING 7.5%/35%: 47c 58c 600 1500
RENDERING 100%/3%: 84c 39c 1250 1500
So, after my tantrum… Build 2 with the Kraken X52 :/

RENDERING 100%/3%: 67c 33c 1250 1500
Um, Yeah…this will work…amazing performance from this tiny beast! ?

What thermal paste did you used? What fan did you used on C14S? Box or you changed to slim one?
just out of interest, why do you hate AIO's, especially for something like rendering its the best solution in this small of a space, you saw yourself that it is the better solution for temps. Because of the constant heat output and the slow warming up from the liquid its just better overall. I also have that configuration in my ncase and render alot, and im happy that I chose that option because of the low temps. its a bit more work setting up etc, but the end results are just outstanding, onyl problem is that little pump noise, but i dont mind it because it runs pretty slow.
