NCASE M1 V6 info

[dragos]

My case just arrived in uk and it’s being processed by the customs hopefully I will have it till Friday

Well, now that my Ncase is on it's way I'm going back through my list of build parts (already ordered and on the way), and I believe I done goofed.

I went with the WD Black SN750 M2 drive w/ the heatsink, not realizing that my motherboard (Asus Rog Strix X570) already includes a heatsink for the M2 drive on the front. Now, after a bit of research I have discovered there is a second slot on the back of the motherboard for a another M2 drive, and was wondering if there would be enough clearance inside the Ncase to fit the SN750 w/heatsink in that slot? I seriously doubt it, but figured I would ask to make sure before I hassle with Newegg to swap out for the non-heatsink version.

Thanks in advance!

Well technically you don’t really need a cooler/heat sink on name’s so it’s more than safe to use it without something to cool it

Since your shipment is 8 days earlier than mine, my case should arrive next week.

mine was shipped 4/23 and I'm in the US too, so maybe mine will arrive the end of next week?

Just ran across this on ebay, version 1 case #69. I am tempted to buy it just because.

Thank you very much! I'm so glad I decided to check this thread one more time, as I was about to start the RMA process with Newegg.

searched through the thread, but I didn’t see any good answers using the search function. What pump/res combo is recommended? I know the Iceman no longer works because the mounting is off now due to the changes in V6. I’ve seen someone use quick disconnects to fill their loop, but would like something like the Iceman res/pump.

No the Iceman does work. The early versions only had 80mm mounting holes so it didn't work when they removed those from the Ncase but the current version of the Iceman has 80mm and 92mm.

Sweet. Thanks for your help. Is the included pump good enough for 2 rads?

The included pump has a flow rate of 360 l/h where as the EK DDC 3.2 moves 1000 l/h so the included pump might be a bit weak for 2 rads. You can actually buy just the reservoir without the pump.

V6.1 owners can I check if the screws mounting the fan bracket on the back of the case is longer than the M3 pan head mentioned in the manual?

I ordered for Apr 13-17 batch. Shipment notification was on 4/15. Said it would be delayed until 4/30 to leave origin country and I haven’t seen any movement on the tracker since then. I don’t think it’ll be quick.

People, do keep in mind that there’s an ongoing pandemic in the world. International shipping is being heavily impacted by this and does most likely take longer in some cases.
...

No pun intended! ?

 

[Dawelio]

Do keep in mind everyone that there's an ongoing pandemic in the world, so shipping times are vastly extended these days. Be patient.

Good news! Tracking updated. Order placed April 10th for a 13-17 preorder window. Tracking just updated to say it’s now at US customs.

Got my UJ-265 optical drive and this thing is so foreign to me lol. Does it require a connection to my power supply as well or just to my motherboard through SATA?

As far as I'm aware, optical drives requires both SATA cable (for data) and a seperate SATA connector from your PSU (for power).

I designed an ad-on for my v6 to house two slim fans at the top. I thought I would post the idea here for some constructive feedback, thoughts?
