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

    I use the Noctua NF-A15 PWM, 150mm fan with 120mm fittings. Works great.

    The issue is that the fan never turns off once it spins up and it's easily the loudest fan in my system whilst idle. They say it's temperature controlled but I am not convinced since the fan spins up straight away when I wake the PC up from sleep in the morning, and the system is stone cold.

    It's running a very mild overclock, can't remember the exact numbers but its around 10% with no extra voltage.

    Silverstone SX500-LG 500W Gold SFX-L

    It would run that setup fine. I am using the SX500 to run 4790K @ 4.7 @ 1.19v Titan X 16GB DDR @ 1.5V 1x SM951 SSD and 3x SATA SSD Asus Impact VII Not impressed with the noise when the fan starts spinning though. All the money I invested in silent fans totally wasted once it spins up. I will...

    NCASE M1 v3 Build Thread

    Is your i5 overclocked? Those temps seems abit high to me for a H100i. I would check the default voltages your motherboard is delivering to the CPU. My Asus board wanted to give my i7 4790K 1.35v to auto overclock to 4.7Ghz, which caused extremely high idle and load temps. I have manually...

    NCASE M1 v3 Build Thread

    I had 2 fans sitting under my Titan X originally but apart from making additional noise, it didn't help with temps at all. The issue with the Nvidia reference coolers is that it has a target temperature, in my case 82/83c, and it would vary it's own fan to keep it around that under load. So no...

    NCASE M1 v3 Build Thread

    I will try get some photos later. The total system power draw is <360W with an i7 and Titan X under load so there's plenty of headroom if you want to overclock. The Maxwell chips are alot more power efficient and I couldn't imagine a 980 needing anymore than a 500W PSU.

    Nice thorough tests but the pictures are too low res to actually see the numbers.

    NCASE M1 v3 Build Thread

    Got my V4 built last week using a the SX500-L and a Titan X. No issue with cable clearance between the PSU and GPU, it's tight but it doesn't push down on the card to cause any stress. 500W is more than enough for my 4790K and Titan X so it should take a 980 without any problems.
