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

    I'm a bit out of date here...built an X99, I think Haswell era M1 w/ a Noctua C14, and also a blower style GPU. Works well in general. I might think of upgrading once the 3080 comes out...but if I want to air cool anything (stock, no OC) and not deal with water coolers/radiators, then it's...

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

    Just wondering...I have the old noctua C12 cooler in my M1, but wondering...if I were to update the guts, would any of the other Noctua models offer roughly equivalent cooling/noise profiles? I usually run things stock, no overclocking.

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

    actually, would be interesting to see if Noctua L9-65 or NH-L12 would suffice in most situations. Maybe not if ppl are OC'ing aggressively, but for stock speeds, I'd be interested in seeing if a L9-65 would be enough for a broadwell-e (my board has the narrow ILM mounts for broadwell-E)

    Just the 140 mm in, and a 92 mm out. Video card w/ a blower. I have tried the prolimatech thin 140 as well as the noctua, both seem to keep idle between 24-28 c...

    Hmm, hmmm, I am using the c14 w a single 140 mm, debating on whether this is preferable or not to a dual 120 mmm setup :/

    X99 on mITX: ASRock X99E-itx/ac

    OK, at any rate, muddle through piecing this together damn thing does boot. There is a minor amount of board flex at the back so the ports in the middle are like ~ 1 mm above the backplate slots (this is usually the bane of my existence during builds...if only they could design a better...

    X99 on mITX: ASRock X99E-itx/ac

    OK, dumb question - for those of you who did the Noctua C14S build in the Ncase M1 - how did you fit the fan? Mine extends out the side of the chassis by like 3-4 mm?

    E5-1650 v3 vs E5-1650 v4

    I suppose., although they are all through these smaller suppliers...I still have an irrational distrust of the Amazon return policy. Thanks for pointing that out though; Amazon didn't have them listed a couple of weeks ago

    E5-1650 v3 vs E5-1650 v4

    The bigger question - where the hell can you actually get a V4 in the US? sigh...

    Seems like more of a Node or Silverstone SG series competitor to me.

    GeForce GTX 1080 Graphics Card - GeForce.com

    I may be looking at the titan version of the card for a deep learning testbed....most for the 32 gb HBM RAM, but the 1080 may be a good upgrade for the gaming box in the meanwhile...

    X99 on mITX: ASRock X99E-itx/ac

    ah that will be a reasonable upgrade point then, that plus a 1080.

    X99 on mITX: ASRock X99E-itx/ac

    Sort of wondering, are they going to release E5-16xx V4's? or are the V3's all we are getting for now.....
