Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
So, if you are not into high refresh rates, your GPU will be the limiting component in your system for most of the games. I have to fire a 21:9 Monitor with a little below 4K resolution, run games with highest details possible and know what I am talking about.
There are some CPU intensive games...
Can you provide what you are planning to do with the system?
1080p gaming
4K gaming

Without this information it is hard to give you suggestions.
I am impressed by your temperatures. I am roughly in the same boat with a 1080 Ti, Accelero III and two fans exhausting air, 92mm rear fan intake, only difference is: I have a Be Quiet CPU cooler. Well and most probably other fans. With GPU power target set to 120%, it stabilizes at 75°C running...
Thanks for jumping in.
The windowed side panel has relatively large bezels. Moving the fans to the very bottom would mean they can't be seen from the outside, because the bezel of the side panel is as high as the fans. But I will try flipping the fans to pull in air from the bottom. Although the...
I couldn't help it and tried the XSPC TX240 radiator with regular fans. I chose the Enermax RGB fans for visual reasons. Looks awesome. Unfortunately doesn't keep the GPU cool. I installed them pushing air through the radiator outside the case at the bottom. I cut the bottom of the case to...
On my desk the only possibility to place a computer case is to my left. I recently ordered a windowed side panel for the NCASE M1 and am in the process of building in it with some RGB. My girlfriend is making fun of me, because the case will be placed UNDER the desk, because to my left ON the...
I ordered this new ultra thin TX240 radiator from XSPC. Thought it would be 20mm in height and wanted to add some regular thick fans on top - everything below a GPU water block. I thought, there would be just as much breathing room as with a (non ultra) thin radiator and thin fans...
I have the M1 v2 and ordered the glass panel some months ago, planning to use it in the next build. Now that there exist ultra thin radiators with 20mm height and around 50mm clearance below a single slot GPU, I am wondering, which route to go. I want to water-cool the GPU. Water-cooled CPU is...
1) 10/13mm
2) My experience is that radiator thickness does not scale like surface area. Meaning: a 240mm radiator will perform twice as good as a 120mm radiator with same thickness. But a 60mm thick radiator will not perform twice as good as a 30mm radiator with same surface area. I am trying...
The discussion was about moving internals of the case several inches down to install a fan, radiator at the top of the case. I then had the idea to flip the whole case upside down, because then you have your top spot for fan or radiator. Exhausting hot air through the top does not sound like a...
