Thanks for the offer. The issue is that on dual 240 and the airflow is too different from the single 280 radiator in this case.

Almost ready to run some test for Gear 3 in Push only mode.
Spec:
CPU: Intel i9-7900X
MOBO: X299E-ITX/AC (Mini-ITX)
GPU: Titan XP (via PCIe Riser)
SSD: Samsung 960 EVO
PUMP: EK-SBAY DDC 3.2 PWM
CPU Waterblock: Bitspower MonoBlock ASRX299EI
GPU Waterblock: EK-FC1080 GTX Ti
RADIATOR: Hardware Labs Nemesis 280GTX
FAN: 2x Noctua NF-A14 PWM Chromax (140mm)
Going to run OCCT and Prime 95, any other tests?

Waiting for the Push / Pull test with the EK CoolStream CE (280x45mm) radiator...!
I absolutely love the products SFFLabs has put out, currently only need the Skyreach to round off my collection. So when I heard that there was a new case coming around September-December that supports mATX in a small form factor I was chomping at the bit to preorder this bad boy.
I got especially excited when I saw mention of Threadripper being a possibility in this case, due to the gorgeous Asrock x399m Taichi. This hits every box for me, as well as watercooling capabilities. I am looking to definitely take advantage of the workstation possibilities that were highlighted, but my main question/concern is this:
The Asrock X399M Taichi requires an 8 pin AND a 4 pin EPS, while near all SFX and SFX-L power supplies only support an 8 or 4+4 pin EPS. I am most certainly not a power supply aficionado, and I just want a straight answer, how do you intend to support current or future TR4 mATX form factor motherboards?
The system I am looking to power and have budgeted for is as follows:
Mobo: Asrock X399M Taichi
CPU: Threadripper 1950X
RAM: Corsair Dom Plats 4x16GB at 3200MHz
Storage: Samsung 970 Pro 512GB (most storage will be over network)
GPU: Radeon Pro WX 9100
PSU: ???? (hopefully something that fits in this case)

As most psu has unique 12v rail, you have mainly two choices to power your 2 eps connectors :
- Use 8 pins eps splitter
- Convert one of your pcie plug into eps : pcie to eps adapter like akasa ak-cb051

Push only as intake, I’m waking for my inline temperature sensor before posting temps.
Someone on HardForum asked for some photo comparison. Sharing it here as well.

Sep to Dec, depends on how busy I get at work.
Someone asked about the Mach One inside the Wallye Duffle, so here it is in case you guys are curious.
One bag fits all - Mach One, Full Size Keyboard, Mouse, Headphone, Elgato Capture Card, MacBook Pro in another pocket.

The holy trinity!
Design consistency is unreal between all three.
Have you even looked at the pics in the very first post in the thread...?!?
Need suggestions, my motherboard (ASRock X299E-ITX) doesn’t have a 2 pin temperature sensor.
I like to get loop temperature for testing Gear 3.
Necere mentioned the Corsair Commander Pro is an LCD, feels a bit overkill.
Wanted to see if there are easier solutions. Ideally less cables the better.
