Hey guys,
I finally got my case yesterday. I made some some small mods to it.
Parts:
i7-5820k @ stock clocks and undervolted
Dynatron t318 + Noctua fan
Asrock x99e-itx (red painted heatsinks)
32GB 3200 @ 3200/15CAS
RD400 1TB M.2
GTX 1080 FTW DT
Corsair SF600
Dan Case A4 SFX
Let's start with the heatsink
I dremeled a line on both sides to fit these brackets that I had left over from an older noctua heatsink. It is a perfect fit with the fan hanging a little to cool the m.2 SSD.
M.2 and red heatsinks in all of it's glory!
Next I moded the i/o shield to fit a noctua 40mm lil fan.
I used a mini display port and full sized display port gpu plastic covers to hold the fan securely in place. They are wedged between the fan and the lan cable and the other one is between the fan and the case. It is firmly in place and they can be removed without too much force.
Dremel cut came out pretty good. I used a sharpie to clean out the bare aluminum left from the dremel job.
The dynatron heatsink exhausts to the psu and the i/o shield so I hope this can help a little with the heat. Unfortunatly I won't be able to test it until Monday...
Some cable management glory shots. Not the best but the air flow isn't obstructed.
Perks of having an m.2 ssd is that I don't need any of the ssd mounts.
You can't even tell the cables are up front although it was a tight fit.
DEADPOOL and a video card!
And finally the case.
Donesies.
Let me know if you guys want me to run any specific bencarks. I will run a prime 95 with and without the 40mm fan on for temps.
Posted this on my phone so hopefully the format looks ok.
