yeah seems the asus is the best of the mini itx boards for the 8700k, going to pick one up myself soon

Me.Who here has put a 8700k CPU or plans to into their M1? I want to start following their posts. I have an extra case sitting here and it needs a project.
Me.
Case is still open though as struggling with GPU cooling. Delidded the 8700k which was easy with a debauer tool - I posted on that elsewhere here.
Using the Gigabyte board because it allows me to use a Dark Rock TF (just). CPU temps are great - no overclock attempted yet because I'm not going to get to a realistic figure until I can close the case.
Busy life at the moment so nothing really. Bought a splitter cable and PWM converter so I can operate the case fans from the GPU but now unable to get the shroud off my GPU cooling solution to leave the heatsink. I think the heatsink is an accelero-alike so ought to be OK.I just reread your post from 16 April. What have you tried to improve the GPU cooling since that time?

I may have to remove the entire assembly, detach the fans, and then reapply thermal paste etc. Might actually work out well to do that. The other benefit of using the current heatsink is that I can retain the backplate.
Also bought the nice SF cables from Corsair which should help both routing and airflow but only just got those today and I won't have a free weekend to fit them for another few weeks.
I'll get there eventually
On the downside I have the sides off my case at the moment and I still occasionally get alarms going off in Assassins Creed Origins and 83c temps on the GPU. I think this is more about poorly directed airflow so should get better when there are a couple of fans pulling cool air in a more controlled way. It's a natively overclocked card so might just be the way it is.
Thank you and will do. Everyone has been so helpful here that I feel I owe you all a final result!. The jobs I need to do now require the bright illumination of daylight, and I get home pretty late most days and just want to get an hour of gaming in before hitting the sack and heading back to the office. I did get a few hours last week but that's when I found out that I couldn't get the fans off my GPU - next time I'll just take the whole thing off anyway so fingers crossed I'll have some time in the next two weeks.Good luck and keep us posted.
My new build.
Arctic Accelero Xtreme III with Noctua A12x25
No OC, no custom fan cuve and no undervolt
This may be the iconic air-cooled M1 build. Clean and cool thanks to the NH-U9S, the Arctic Accelero Xtreme III, and their dual Noctua fans. The custom sleeved PS cables look great. The Gelid VRM heatsink is perfect (too bad there isn't a 1080 Ti version).
Well done.
Are you running exhaust on the bottom fans and the rear 92mm?
Are you using stock side panel with 120mm intake?

U9S + Accelero + window = the new iconic M1 buildActually, I believe the "Big Air" build for the M1 has the NH-C14...

It sounds like he's calling it the Mcase N1 and I want to strangle him because of it.
How does a guy that reviews computer hardware for a living not know about the M1? It has been out for years. What a moron.
I blame dyslexia.He's a moron to me now. How is he going to literally be in the business of making videos about computer parts, including cases, and not know what the M1 is? Isn't his job to do research and validate things? How are we supposed to take him seriously if he can't even get the name of the product right? He also needs to grow up and get a haircut. No grown man needs long hair. Unsubbed.

16gb or ram should be enough for most things right? (lite 4k video on premiere pro)

With an ITX board, best to max out those two RAM slots...
System requirements for Premier Pro are "8 GB of RAM (16 GB or more recommended)" so 16 should be plenty.
I was just checking about Vengeance Pro memory from Corsair's statement from Computex 2018 and they state "These new memory DIMMs will ship with memory seeds of between 2666MHz and 4000MHz at launch, with 8GB and 16GB modules."im pretty decided on the corsair RGB ram, their new Pro line doesnt have 16gb dimms.
Here is a rough draft test fit of all the new parts. It's real tight and the order in which you install parts matters a lot. Next up on the agenda is to make my own custom cables and fiddle around with routing before it goes in the new case. Temps seem good so far and I don't even have the direct die plate on, or any liquid metal.

So it looks like they will have the 16GB available they are probably just not listed yet.
Looks great! Is this a C14 or a C14S? I wonder if a U9S would perform better given the airflow restrictions, and that way you'd get to show off a bit of the motherboard too.
What PSU is that and what fan are you using for the CPU cooler?
