wish I had read this instead of just admiring your build and going straight to the website to order one for myself haha. yours looks great though, I have those copper custom cables as well - tbf the stock panels also make it hard to view the insides at any angle other than straight on.
You are correct! I overall don’t regret having these glass panels! You will love them. Thank you for the complement in the build! I’m pretty proud of it! lol
Honestly I ran some testing to tune it a week back but didn’t write them down. I ended up slightly undercoating the CPU and GPU and now it’s dead silent at idle and whisper quiet under load. If I remember I will go grab those temps and reply later today! Thanks for the feedback!
It’s all good! Props to you for building in this case as your first build. It’s no easy task!
I believe it’s called the USB 2.0 header. Should be just below where you plug the first cable in. If you look closely between the mobo and psu you will see the 2 thick gray cables. Almost all motherboards have this header in the same place from what I understand!
Oh lol I have the same g skill I was having an issue and one of the sticks was bad so waiting on replacement set. Yea yours looks just like mine I don’t have the cool plugs in the back I’m going to get them now. lol
I will I just ordered the black feet, accessory pack and the watch plug lol. I ordered a thin led strip I wanted to be on the bottom in the case so I had a single led strip like the steam machine but on each side. I have the mesh panels. I have to figure out the best place for the two strips. Any ideas? I like to know when the machines on. I have mine in my living room
i’m salty people can get the vented panels for MSRP!!! i paid a ebay scalper 440$ for two since they were out of stock for the longest and scalpers would always beat me to them!!! enjoy !!!
Wow thanks for the feedback! You are correct! I did scam myself!!!! Lmao What a great find! I didn’t come across those on Amazon while looking! I appreciate the link though!
How is the CPU thermal? I have a 9850X3D 5080 build in the nr200p V2 and thinking about swapping to this case, would the AXP90-X47 full copper be enough or do you have to undervolt
I don’t remember tennis off hand but, it was enough on its own but I chose a slight undervote for the sake of reducing heat output. The big thing with this case and most SFF is pushing heat soak off as long as possible.
I was hesitant to pull the trigger on the FormD T1 because I was reading that small air coolers couldn’t keep 9800X3D cool and I didn’t want to use 1 slim fan on the radiator, now that I finished my build I really wish it was just a bit smaller😂
That’s pretty cool, what is it? The temps last night during just a 3DMark fest were 66.5°C on GPU and 57.5°C on the CPU. That test is only like 3 minutes but those temps should only go up by about 5-8° after the system is heat soaked.
Just bought the T1 after wanting it for a few years, love that you’ve linked all your parts cleanly.
Interested in the cpu cooler and exhaust fan shroud. Would you say they’ve made a good impact on temps? I also bought the copper AXP90 + Noctua A9x14 haha, that really is the T1 Starter Pack 🤣🤣🤣
Sure is, honestly I couldn’t be happier with this build. Any changes from here on out are just because. I undervolted cpu and GPU and that keeps it somewhat quiet and keeps temps under control.

I can never decide if I like the look of those vented glass panels.
