NCASE M1 V6 info
- Thread starter Necere
- Start date
Yeah got the same, but the letter came a day later and I have a friend pick it up for me tomorrow.
If you are ever curious about what comes with Noctua fans, go their site and it'll show everything that comes with that specific fan.
Just got my M1!!! Woohoo!
Tracking number didn't update but it arrived and was signed for.
Now to finish work and get started on building...
Anticipation is the worst part lol

On mine there was an invoice. There was the usual shipping plastic folder stick to the box, which let you open it and see the documents.
I got two invoices, I guess one was meant for customs but they did not take it.
Price is also correctly declared : on the shipping label and on the invoices.
Edit : actually, I just checked the conversion from Taiwan dollars to my local currency, price was under estimated for me.

It's done! It works! It looks beautiful! No machining flaws to my naked eye.
It was my first build ever, so just stoked it turned on. I'm sure there are folks here that could seriously improve my cable management, but I did the best I could (and yay for closed side panels!)
Parts list here.
Build album and final product here (although to be honest I was too stressed to take pictures through most of the process.)
My one issue: This one is weird. When I plug the USB dongle for a wireless mouse into either of the front USB ports, the mouse works for about 2 seconds and then the cursor stops moving. This is true for both front ports. The USB dongle works fine in the back ports. The front ports do work, which is the weird part. I'm able to charge my phone through them, for instance. Any thoughts? I'd really like all of my rear-facing USB ports for other cables.
Special shout out to @Qrash. He was super patient and clutch as a resource for a first time builder jumping in on the deep end with an M1!

Thanks man! It was much harder than my define S but will all the panels being so easy to pop on and off very doable. Was a really enjoyable build.
The bolder parts are key and some of them I did not realize as I was building it. Next time I go in to put in a new cooler or gpu I will change it up according to these good tips.
So I am very happy to have received my case and finally have it in my possession after the long wait. Some of you will call me picky and others will be able to relate to me I’m sure. We paid a nice penny for this case and expect a high quality and finish on a product like this. I must say the quality is amazing but I’m a little disappointed by the finish. Not sure what happened to my case but it came chipped. Unfortunately, I have the black version and white or silver aluminum is extremely noticeable, especially on the front panel lol (why I was skeptical of black). If that chip was in the rear or side that doesn’t face me I wouldn’t be bothered, but the fact that it’s right in the front is really really bothering me.
Anyone have a fix or any ideas of what I can do if I can’t get the front replaced? Sounds silly to replace it for that chip but if it was your case, I’m sure you would be bothered by it as well. Any suggestion for a possible masking or fix would be great, the brushed aluminum finish is hard to work with or touch up. ?
Ps. Sorry for bad photos, it’s that really obvious white dot on the front panel (no it’s not dust ?)

Thanks, just sent them an email.
yea, first time ordering but my buddy got his same day I got mine and his was flawless.
I checked today to see if the front panel in black was in stock but it’s out of stock so I can’t even just buy one to replace it. Not sure if they were ever in stock to begin with, but I thought maybe they might have been. Any idea if they will restock them?
Right now SFFLab just has plans to stock M1 panel kits (front/top/sides) and ODD top panels. Other panels will not be available to purchase individually.
In your case, since it appears it arrived damaged, SFFLab will arrange for a replacement to be sent to you. You could also try filling the chip with a black permanent marker, but based on the size and location you probably wouldn't have satisfactory results.
