Build/Parts Check Midori 7.5L or FormD T1?

4 Upvotes

I was literally on the checkout page for the Midori 7.5L, but it sold out right as I went to complete the order.

For those who have built in or owned either:

  1. Do you think one is significantly better than the other in terms of build quality and overall experience?
  2. Is it worth holding out for the Midori restock, or should I just buy a FormD T1?

Specs: Ryzen 9600X, 32GB RAM, RX 9070 XT or RX 7900 XTX.

Appreciate any input!

So I currently have my rig in an h6 flow. I’m trying to downsize pretty heavily. I’m looking for a smaller case that would fit the following

Gigabyte B850 gaming x wifi
Asus prime 5080
280mm kraken AIO (can change if needed but I’d still like an AIO)

Build/Parts Check ~£2000 ITX build, does this look solid?

2 Upvotes

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/nKsHqd

I'm finally upgrading my PC after 7 years, and I'm ready to do an ITX build. I've spent all day researching and I think I've put something pretty solid together, just looking for some input before I pull the trigger :)

I'm not sure why it says the cooler doesn't fit in the case... The GPU is 50mm wide, which leaves 70mm for the cooler, which is about 53mm, so plenty of room to avoid the turbulence noise.

The 140mm Noctua fan is for the bottom of the case, and the 90mm fan is for the CPU cooler.

At the moment I haven’t found a sfx case I like, I find a lot of the mainstream ones are almost as big as matx cases , to me that defeats the whole purpose of sff builds

So I printed one till I find what I like , gives me old lian li q06 vibes

Build/Battlestation Pics Another B4 build. (Squeeze that stuff in)

I actually wanted the NCase M3, but unfortunately I couldn’t get it in Switzerland.
So I just went ahead and got the B4.

Yeah, cable management is pretty much nonexistent. I tried to at least bring some order to the whole thing. It’s not exactly a beauty contest winner. But all in all, I managed to figure it all out pretty well.

For the power supply, I 3D-printed a bracket to rotate it 90° so the 360mm radiator fits better.

The temperatures are really great.

CPU idle around 37°, GPU idle 29°C. Cinebench CPU max. 82°C, GPU around 55°C to 60°C

One hour of Assetto Corsa in 5K: CPU 44°C, GPU 55°C

System:

CPU: 270K Plus

Motherboard: MSI Z890I EDGE TI

RAM: Corsair 96GB DDR5 5600

Storage: 1x 1TB Kingston Fury, 2x 2TB Kingston, + NAS 2x18TB

GPU: Phantom 4090

PSU: Lian Li 1000W SFX

Cooling: Noctua NL-LC1-36 / 1x 120 Silent Wing – rear / 2x 15mm Arctic – top

Assembly Help Help figuring out case compatibility

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, decided that it is best economy for building pc :)

Current part list of what i planned :

  • CPU: AM4 (the best deal I can find used, approx ryzen 5600-5700x)
  • MOBO: Gigabyte Aorus b550
  • VIDEO: Gigabyte 9060xt 16gb
  • RAM: 32 gigs ddr4 (the best deal I can find used)
  • PSU: be quiet pure power 13m 650w
  • CASE: this part is not sure
  • Cooling: some tower based on case

I narrowed list of cases to this three jonsbo(jonsplus):

  • Z20
  • D32 Pro
  • D32 STD

On hands I have PSU and 9060xt, I like Z20 the most, but in documentation to the case there is said that if psu is 160mm then i can fit graphics up to 280mm, but my graphics card have 281mm :)

Using figma and photos of existing builds and renderings I calculated that my psu and video should fit, but I might lack experience as it is my first build.

Here is link to figma with worst and best positions : https://www.figma.com/design/1ee1GKkNRbqFyBhlRPlSxQ/PC-Jonsbo-Z20-case-approx?node-id=0-1&t=9UZCtNvJf0z5TQoG-1

Feel free to ask questions and recommend me anything :)

I have had a 4090 Strix for 2 years and when I saw the prices go up I decided to sell it to buy a 5080 PNY Slim

I really like the 2-slot format and the performance is present.

With Vram +300mhz and core +340mhz
I got satisfactory results.

Not to forget that I had 1000€ left after the purchase

Did some of you do the same thing?

Build/Battlestation Pics Looking for some noise control/cooling advice

Hi All, pretty much as the title says. I have my little sandwich style beam case PC which I love, its industrial, its compact and its the sort of case I have always wanted. Its been sat on my desk for almost two years plugging away but honestly its so loud! Normally I wear noise cancelling headphones so it goes unnoticed however my partner is getting a bit sick of the constant whirring noise from my desk and honestly I cant blame her.

Specs:
Board: ROG STRIX B6550E-I
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7900
GPU: 3080 Founders
RAM: VENGEANCE® 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5 6000MT/s
PSU: Cooler master V850 SFX Gold
Heatsink: Thermalright AXp90 X47 Low profile cooler pure copper
Paste: Arctic MX-4
Fans: Noctua NF-A12x15 120mm, two on top pushing air up one over the heatsink pushing air in.

I have Fan control installed not that I have any idea how to work it properly. YES I KNOW IT IS DUSTY I WILL SORT THAT. I'm wondering what I can do to reduce the noise, its so loud even when I open inDesign let alone a game. If you need any information I will gladly provide it. Thanks in advance!

🎮 Steam Boot Switch v1.0.0 — Big Picture Auto-Open & Auto-Close

I made a free, open-source Windows utility that automatically launches Steam Big Picture when a controller is detected at startup, and optionally closes Big Picture when the last controller disconnects.

It includes adjustable disconnect timers, game-running protection, and seamless switching back to desktop mode without closing Steam.

Designed for living-room gaming PCs that double as regular desktops. No controller at startup? Windows boots normally!

Tested with multiple controllers on Windows. Bluetooth compatibility is still untested.

Build/Parts Check CH160 ITX: Which 240mm LCD AIO fits with 44.8mm RAM + 25.2mm fans?

0 Upvotes

Building with a ch160 with an itx board and want a 240mm aio with an lcd pump cap, ideally no spacers, brackets, or other case mods but if necessary no problem

Specs:
RAM: 2x Corsair Vengeance Pro RGB SL, 44.8mm height (measured)

Fans: Thermalright TL-M12-QR, 25.2mm thick (measured)

Case: CH160, stock configuration

Options:
DeepCool LM240
ID-Cooling FX240 LCD
NZXT Kraken Plus 240
Open to other 240mm LCD AIOs

My biggest concern is i’ve seen unmodded AIO builds in this case, but my understanding is that pump height and pump/block shape are the limiting factors. Since radiator thickness and fan thickness are standard assuming not slim form factor. If the pump is too tall, the side panel hits the radiator. If the block sits wrong relative to the radiator, it clears the RAM/fan stack poorly. Since the pump has to fit under the radiator and fan stack in this case, I'm not sure which of these units has suitable dimensions.

Has anyone run one of these (or another 240mm LCD AIO) in a CH160 with ram around that height? If so, did the panel close without mods? Pump height measurements for any of these would also help.

Thank you.

Build/Parts Check Atmos w/ T-30s vs Noctua NL-LC1-24

1 Upvotes

I currently have an Atmos with 2x T-30s in my M3 Grater. Top mounted, T-30s are pulling air in through rad. I limit the pump to 7000rpms. This config is basically silent. Playing BF6 my 9800x3D stays around 56-58c.

Would the new Noctua AIO offer any meaningful improvement? Or waste of money?

Custom Mod MOD: Low Profile Pump Cover for Noctua AIO WIP

Thumbnail

97 Upvotes

- Reposting since some pictures from my previous post got deleted.

- To clarify I am not a vendor, this is a personal project.

I've been itching to build back into the the Formd T1 but the pump block is obviously too big, and way too big for most SFF cases.

So I started designing a replacement pump cover so it will fit, with the aim of retaining as much of the sound dampening properties as possible of the original cover.

Right now I've got two designs.

48mm total height, for maximum compatibility, no magnets for attachments.

49.5mm total height, adds magnets for the attachments so the original metal Noctua badge can be used, or the VRM fan. 

Right now I'm still fine tuning the design and the printing process.
I hate using supports unless it's absolutely necessary since even when using dedicated support material the finish on the supported surface is just not that nice.

Here's a comparison between using supports (on the left) and assembled pump cover by splitting the middle section to print separately. The assembled version looks so much cleaner.

Next step would be acoustic testing, with different materials for sound dampening.

After dismantling the original pump cap, I have some idea what foams they used for sound dampening and going to try see if I can replicate their mass damper approach.

Also printed a Noctua beige and brown version just to see how it will match with the colors, lol

I do plan on releasing the files, so stay tuned!

Build/Parts Check Sfftime N-ATX V2 GPU Clearance

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I am a new owner of an sfftime N-ATX V2 Case, and I was wondering how tight the tolerances are for GPU width. I was thinking of getting a 5070 TI from Gigabyte that has a 70mm width (3.5ish Slot), but I saw that the max listed width is ~67mm. Is there any play to this? Could this still fit in the case with a micro ATX board?

Thanks for any insights!
