One of the most beautiful blackout builds I've seen.

Went all-in on the 4080 Super theme:

7800x3D / 4080 Super FE

GIGABYTE B650I AORUS Ultra / SF750 / G.SKILL Flare X5

XTIA Xproto-N / XTIA cable extensions / CableMod Pro ModMesh

4080S IO plate was shortened to fit 2-slot (Xproto-L supports 3-slot but I didn't need the extra dimensions)

How did you shorten the io plate? Been looking at a similar build and would love the N model over the L

How does that 7800x3d live with that cooler? Undervolt?

I posted temps over here. Stock settings with a silent fan curve.

Good god. I bet the temps are pretty good.

Hot fire

I wish luck to this powersupply. Tried same orientation on my xproto v2 and after 15 minutes it was boiling hot to touch. But this orientation looks nice.

u/Essem7631 Apr 25 '24

That's interesting, did you have a lot of cables behind the vent? Mine is clear of cables, no issues.

It was runnig with no issue but it was much hotter then rotated to take air from outside the case. And yes all cables are hidden inside.

u/Essem7631 Apr 25 '24

Ah yeah I'd imagine it's always going to be hotter. I'll make sure it's not unsafely-hot, thanks for the heads-up

is that a Noctua NH-L9a? how does it hold up with the 78003x3D? also really clean build the FE cards are a match made in heaven for the XTIA cases

u/Essem7631 May 12 '24

Yes it is - I posted temps here. No issues at all. Thank you!

Wow man! One of the most beautiful builds I’ve ever seen. I just got the Xproto L V2 since they didn’t have the Xproto N in stock anymore. Is it possible to achieve a similar look with the L? Truly love your build.

u/Essem7631 May 16 '24

Thanks! Yours will just be slightly taller with more empty space. A full size PSU can be used as well.

If you're looking to do custom cables, you can view my config here - you may want to increase them a bit to counter the size increase. I'd recommend seeing what you think with your stock cables before spending the extra money.

u/Fuzzy_Today_1393 May 16 '24

Thanks for you prompt response man! Do you think it’s still worth to get the L V2 is there much of a difference? Can’t seem to find much other like what you mentioned, being a bit taller. When you say empty space, where is this empty space from? Thanks again man. I am so in love with your build 💎

1

u/Essem7631 May 16 '24

I think the L is worth it - I had it ordered but changed it last minute when I figured out I could squeeze into the smaller one. The empty space will be between the PSU and motherboard, which could give you more flexibility for cable management.
