    Also you can delid and replace the factory tim with Liquid Metal. Huge gains to be made there.

    I am using a G4560 Unfortunately Intel tdp's are to be taken with a truckload of salt. Install hwinfo and see how much the proc really uses. My 2 cores @ 3.5 Gz use about 36W, you have 6 of them. You can try disabling HT, should lower your temps some more. Maybe you can then bump the clocks a bit.

    Very interesting new passive case

    I also believe there are 3d files available so you can print your own custom IO panel

    Technically yes you could do that. But the placement of the shims to the panels would have to be very exact. Also note that by doing so you are introducing an extra layer to the setup and thermal epoxy will always be less conductive than paste. The heatpipes stick out just a little from the...

    They claim 200W combined in passive mode and 400W if you install 1 140mm fan. That is quite good if true.

    The resistor, I can't remember, been a long time. I remember doubling it so you would have to measure it. Shims, thickness used 2mm. The purpose of the shims, since I didn't use the pads that come with the case, is to ensure good contact with the panels. Oh yeah the chassis, corsair really...

    My temps are still perfect, even on hot summer days. Yes I meant the HDPlex 8 heat pipe heat sink. As for the shims, I used them behind the aluminum blocks, so the material is irrelevant, you just need to drill a hole for the screw to fit trough. I first used pieces of thin wood for testing...

    Hi Chocolateburmese, I was thinking the heatsink didn't mount properly because of the notches on the corners of the plastic socket, but it clears them just fine. It is an other problem, the heatsink is 2 pieces and it turns out it has a crappy solder job. I am waiting for ryzen 3000 and navi...

    So what ever happened with this build? I see Streacom has a gpu kit for the db4 now

    Did you test the hardware before assembling? I don't see anything wrong with how you connected led and powerbutton. I am however not sure about the 4 pin atx, it could well be the motherboard wont power on unless it has a 8 pin atx. What cpu are you using?

    Thank you, the psu vrm's on the backside of the pcb get quite hot, they are now cooled via a thermalpad with the panel it is mounted on. Works quite good because that panel heats up under load. Since the m.2 ssd is cooled by the central column (also thermalpad) and the backside of the cpu also...

    Hi, the system has been 100% stable, I even mined eth with it a for a month while I was building a mining rig . With the 24/7 full load use the panels get a bit too hot to touch, thermals were all well within normal parameters. The db4 is being used daily and is only off at night, with normal...
