i gotta agree with this. Also, the amount of people that makes custom loops are pretty few compared to regular air coolers, + there are even fewer in the sff "market". I think air cooling + sfx is the best way. We finally have some decent sfx psu's on the market, and I don't think tfx will get...
Well phanteks have that new PSU adapter that makes it possible to use one PSU with two systems - Phanteks Innovative Computer Hardware Design
dunno how that works if you power one of the systems down though.
Yeah, and ugly as hell.
I could live with it not being super sff, since it's two systems.
Two itx systems in one atx case still is still smaller than the total footprint of two machines (depends ofcourse), and it would be so nice to have them both in the same enclosure.
dondan you say that the maximum thickness of a GPU with backplate is 45mm. How much clearance is it between the gpu fans and side panel?
I have a 980 ti Gaming Extreme from gigabyte and it's about 55mm thick
If the "monolith" would have to be scrapped BC of cost issues in the mATX form factor, I love love to see this transferred to a mITX with better ATX psu support.
I so agree with you on this one. If I'm to be 100% honest, I would love for this project to rather be a slightly bigger ITX case, with room for more cooling and atx psu, rather than mATX.
But I suppose I'm the only one, and would still gladly buy a Monolith regardless of the size. Damn that...
Yes. I'm one casefan short atm. (Waiting for it to arrive).
I'm not that bothered just now since I'll get custom made cables and another casefan. Theres nothing of importance on the disk, so if it fails it fails and I'll get a replacement. The disks are rated for up to 60c and theres room for a...
PSA. The "clicks" for the psu are normal for many corsair psu's, and it's just when it turns on or off.
I really like it, since then I know when the psu is actually on.
Nothing wrong!
