    NCASE M1: a crowdfunded Mini-ITX case (updates in first post)

    Im currently using the Kelvin S24 with an i5 4690K and 290X LCS, just to give you an idea of the challenges you might have. The fill port is inconveniently placed on the actual CPU block/pump which is quite the hassle when trying to fill the loop. The hole is really small and the pump internals...

    NCASE M1 v2 Build Thread

    Certainly would be enough for me and also as a fun project with the whole watercooling thing if I'll ever find a good combination of WC parts :). Yeah, only thing is the fact that there is no reference design 970 if I'm right and the price difference between the card I am sitting on right...

    Okay thanks! I think I'll stay with the 290X for now still a good card. If i wanted the 970 though I would not try selling the 290X but returning it for a full refund and then buying the 970 instead. However since most benchmarks with aircooled 290X's show very similar performance to the 970 I...

    NCASE M1 v2 Build Thread

    My build is standing still because of the Fractal Kelvin S24 being delayed to November and my PSU pre-order being cancelled without me knowing. I have the rest of the parts including a 290X with a pre-installed waterblock which is unopened. Is it worth the trouble returning it and buying the...

    NCASE M1: a crowdfunded Mini-ITX case (updates in first post)

    Looks great! Are the cables any good? Was thinking about sleeving but that just makes them bigger. As for the fees, because it doesn't exceed 1300SEK i don't have to pay customs but in every case I do need to pay VAT of about 25% I think. Amazon has free shipping so the total price including...

    The reason i chose CDON is because they are the only one with a discount for students so i would get if for $20 USD less than Inet. Alternate seems like a solid alternative although i'd get it for a lot less through Amazon.com. CDON cancelled the pre-order 3 days ago without a warning. Asked...

    NCASE M1: a crowdfunded Mini-ITX case (updates in first post)

    All was going according to my plans until Swedish retailer CDON screwed me over and canceled the preorder i had on the SX600-G. Now they are all out of them and don't know when there will be new stock, no other Swedish retailers have them either so i guess i have to order from some other...

    Because I have full height ram I'm unsure of the Glacer fitting. The only possible orientation would be with the inlet and outlet running vertical I think, and even then it could conflict with the northbridge on the Z97I-Plus I have. That's why the Prestige would be perfect but as you said being...

    What about the Cooler Master Glacer 240L or the Eisberg 240L Prestige, they should fit right? If so that would sure be nice. The Eisberg seems like a solid cooler. Thanks for your help!

    Is your experience good with the H220 so far? I don't want something with a pump that fails on me within half a year.

    NCASE M1: a crowdfunded Mini-ITX case (updates in first post)

    Yeah, it's very expensive though. I know watercooling will set you back for noticeably more than aircooling but i was hoping i could get away with a full config (rad, cpu block, pump etc.) for just the cost of the Apogee Drive II. It should be possible however because i've seen other combos for...

    NCASE M1: a crowdfunded Mini-ITX case (updates in first post)

    Does anyone know if the Cooler Master Glacer 240L is within specifications and fits in the case? Need to know because the Fractal Design Kelvin series won't be here until november and I have almost all other parts. If not, what good CPU waterblock/pump combos are there? Thanks!

    NCASE M1 v2 Build Thread

    I'm actually doing a full loop so that is why the Fractal would have been perfect. I already have the graphics card, a PowerColor one with the waterblock pre-installed. So my best bet would probably be H220, Glacer 240L or fully custom with some CPU waterblock/pump combo. If I don't have...

    NCASE M1 v2 Build Thread

    So i emailed Fractal Design and asked them about the Kelvin AIO series, they are in fact delayed until november but the guy said that it would be even better with some upgraded specifications. Now i have all of my parts except for the watercooling and the PSU. So i either wait for 2.5 months in...

    NCASE M1 v2 Build Thread

    Nice, that's good to know. I'm also going to have to figure out how to test the graphics card before mounting it in the case, we'll see about that though. Thanks! I probably wouldn't buy the Impact for SupremeFX audio, external solutions should give better sound for the money. The Impact is...
