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

    Thanks for the tips. I ebayed some thermal strips. It was "7W/MK". Not sure how trust worthy that was but it was from Phobya. I put some strips on the chips and it went from 67C at idle down to 51. A good drop but still kinda toasty. I need like a fan on it... Im not sure if they are...

    Right on the other side of the motherboard is the CPU.. close to it anyways, probably the VRMs and mosfets The msata does align with the holes so that would mean I would need a good sized thermal pad then

    Thanks I got it all set up. Really looks nice What settings did you use for sharpness, gamma, contrast, brightness and color? Or did you leave it all stock?

    So I'm currently using Alphacool ST30 slim rad with some medium speed fans Would I see some good temp drops if I switched it for DazMods Dual LP240 Extra Slim Radiator and some high speed fans? The Alphacool is 8FPI while Daz is at 17FPI Currently my system (specs in sig) is around 50C...

    Thanks wisk, so modifying my runs to be shorted wouldn't have a huge impact on performance as well right?

    So now that I have successfully built my first watercooling rig (I feel happy, didn't seem too hard) Couple of questions to make this build optimal I currently use 4 90degree adapters, would taking these out make an improvement in the temps? If so by how much? I have quite some long...
