    Time for a New Main Rig

    Are you planning on doing modifications to that chassis to accept a motherboard? The P200 Pedestal is an add-on for the W200 chassis and not designed to be a standalone case. Just trying to picture the end goal here :)

    How easy would it be to do?

    Hyperlink button(looks like a chain) is your best friend :) But looks like the original Xbox is only 74mm tall, and the smallest dimension on that case is 104mm. So It's not going to fit.

    Build Aesthetic Help

    Thanks for the feedback. Maybe option 1 with a display? lol Cables are made by Ensourced. Bought them back in 2016 and they've been rock solid.

    Build Aesthetic Help

    Looking for some help with the aesthetics of my next build. My main goal here is something that's minimalistic with the lack of RGB. Form over function is fine with me. My last build(2 PCs in one case) was a bit of a nightmare to deal with and was bigger than I needed(Lian Li D600 that I...

    FRACTAL MESHIFY 2 Top Filter

    If you are worried how it looks with light shining through those mobo holes you can always cover them with same tape. Might look aesthetically better to not have the light shining through. If your worried about dust coming into those holes, then tape would fix that too, or just make sure you...

    Difficult to find new case micro-ATX close to Silverstone SG10 or SG09

    Saw this one in another thread, not sure if it's too big, but holds a larger GPU and has an optical drive: Silverstone FARA 311

    Alphacool Radiator Version

    I would call around or email retailers to see if they have the older style logo in stock. I would imagine someone has to have the 420 XT45 V.2 with the blue logo. I checked with ModMyMods and Performance PCs, both of them had the blue logo in stock of the NexXxoS ST30 Full Copper X-Flow 280mm...

    Alphacool Radiator Version

    I honestly prefer the bland logo since it goes with my theme, but I get it. Your rad is also V.2 which offers the flush mount plugs, which is a nice addition. With it being a newer version I guess it makes sense it would have the "new" logo, but you'd think there would atleast be some pictures...

    Alphacool Radiator Version

    Yes that is my post. I have an email into them also, but with it being the weekend I'm not expecting anything until tomorrow. Box, instructions, everything included in the box look very legit, but realistically that's probably the cheapest/easiest thing to do when trying to dupe people. I...

    Alphacool Radiator Version

    I did, shortly after the post. We'll see what they have to say. Just figured I would see it somewhere on the interwebs.... Found out they have a forum too, posted and will report back.

    Alphacool Radiator Version

    Working on a new custom loop and ordered up a couple of Alphacool NexXxoS ST30 Full Copper X-Flow 360mm Radiators. I got them in and they have a small grey logo on them rather than the big blue logo I was expecting and find in every single picture. Has anyone else seen these? Know if this is...

    WTB: Thermaltake Tsunami Dream drive rails

    Random but on topic-ish. Do you have the silver or the black version? I lost the little top hatch that covers the USB, headphone, microphone and Firewire(just dated this case). I'll take a look this afternoon when I get home. I "think" there is a system in there and pretty sure it has a IDE...

    WTB: Thermaltake Tsunami Dream drive rails

    Sounds like he is looking for the rails that go on either side of the drive that allow it to slide into the 5.25" drive bay. I too have one of these laying around, I can take a look.

    Difficult to find new case micro-ATX close to Silverstone SG10 or SG09

    Those SAMAs look nice. Essentially a bigger version of the NR200 series.

    Micro-ATX case for a small server

    Assuming you are sticking with m-ATX since you are running the Node 804. Take a look at Jonsbo. They don't have the horizontal mobo orientation, but they do have the full size PSU and 3 expansion slots you want. Here's a Link to their mATX offerings.

    Difficult to find new case micro-ATX close to Silverstone SG10 or SG09

    Closest I have been able to find to the SG10 and SG09 layout is going to be from Jonsbo. Most of the cases have the PSU above the CPU slot, so a tower cooler is usually a no go. I wasn't sure what you meant by a "big top flow cooler". Jonsbo has some older models that don't have any tempered...

    small atx case

    The mesh is fine enough to catch quite a bit of it, but it's definitely not going to catch all of it. It's definitely uglier when it catches it on the outside of the case, I have one in white, vs catching it on a filter behind a panel. But as far as the smallest volume able to hold an ATX...

    small atx case

    Forgot about the new Meshroom S as long as you get the right parts you can do a full ATX in there.

    small atx case

    All the ones I was thinking about. Sliger Cerberus X also comes to mind, but they come with a bit heftier price tag($265 to start). I have also built in a Thermaltake Core G3. Definitely compact, could be placed on it's side, but requires an SFX psu. Might have to do some searching for it...

    Whats the best way to hide a htpc?

    Is it an actual wood burning fireplace or gas or maybe a gas insert(aka converted an older wood burning fireplace)? Guess it all depends on what's underneath that sheetrock. That Themaltake would look nice right above the beer fridge, centerpiece for that open area, and you could see it from...

    Whats the best way to hide a htpc?

    Do you know if the area above the fireplace is hollow? Might take a little doing but you could make a small hole in there to investigate. If it's open in there, then I would put the PC on the beer fridge or you could even extend the existing shelf to hold more liquor or have a nice little...

    WTB: EVGA FTW3 Shroud

    Already did. They said they did not have any extra parts for non warranty claims. Would assume with them being out of the GPU business they are holding onto just about everything for warranty claims. I suppose I can wait another 3 years when all the claims are gone and get one lol :p:p:p:p I...

    WTB: EVGA FTW3 Shroud

    Appreciate it, but they are different from what I can tell. The 3090ti is a 3.5 slot card and the 3070-3090 are all 2.75 slot cards. Everything else looks pretty similar, but there are a few nuances that make me think it would not work.

    WTB: EVGA FTW3 Shroud

    Anyone have an EVGA FTW3 Shroud laying around they want to part with? If you have the fans that would be great too, but mostly want the shroud. I have an EVGA 3070 FTW3 in a white build and I don't want to paint it as it would void the warranty. AFAIK anything from a 3070 to a 3090 are the same.

    13900k + 4090 Loop capacity

    I dumped your specs into EK's Loop Configurator and it shows a heat load of 853W and suggested a 360 and a 240 for a cooling potential of 702W. It says it sufficient but your coolant temps(34C) will be a bit higher giving you higher fan speeds and a noise level of 40.5 dB. If I go into expert...

    Lian Li V3000+ and O11 Dynamic Evo news?

    Buy it already!!!! lol 👿👿👿👿👿 Must see epic supertower builds!! I modified a Lian Li D600 to house two systems, both watercooled BTW. So I understand the desire. I am actually in the process of breaking them up and going to a smaller footprint. The D600 is big, but it's still more cramped...

    Lian Li V3000+ and O11 Dynamic Evo news?

    Lian Li product page is available too. It was password protected yesterday when I was searching around for 3000+ info. 1000D seems like it would just be a giant pain to build in. Two rows of radiators up front and just a ton of cable management. It's like they took their smaller cases and...

    Lian Li V3000+ and O11 Dynamic Evo news?

    GGF Events did a review/rundown. Didn't watch the whole thing as I am not into SuperTowers, but skimmed through some of it and definitely a very interesting and modular case.

    Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE $35.90

    You can drag and drop photos into the reply section and it will host them. Nothing outside needed. I would venture to guess that your writing starts at the bottom and goes up and your logo is on the left side of the heat pipe terminations, which is why we suggested the turning of his cooler...

    Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE $35.90

    Not to pile on, but just figured it would help confirm that gawkgawk should rotate the cooler 180* which will allow for more clearance between it and the slot 1 PCIE.

    Case Dark Flash Knight K1 Fan Setup

    Seems like a logical place to start. Are you having issues with temps? With it being such an open case the only other change I could see would be to just brute force it with intake and creating plenty of positive pressure, by changing the two "front" "top" fans to intake.

    Suggestions for a larger windowless case with good radiator support

    Had a hard tine finding much of anything windowless, but the Fractal Define series came to mind right away. Big metal box look: Fractal Define XL Define 7(if you need something smaller). Phanteks Eclipse P400S(I'd be worried about airflow, but have not looked at any reviews) Want some mesh...

    What relatively compact case fits a 1200 watt PSU?

    If not bleeding edge then why the need for such a big PSU? I get that 4000 series NVIDIA is out and will likely need something bigger, again depending on what you go with 4080 or higher. Just saying because having a large PSU is going to limit your ability to have ultra compact like you're...

    Nice and clean, I like it. Maybe fashion some sort of post to mount to the desk and have it right above the monitor, or bump up the monitor a little and put it underneath?

    What relatively compact case fits a 1200 watt PSU?

    Additional info on what you want would help. Going full ATX mobo or itx? I would assume ATX, but you never know. Need HDD storage? Need a 5.25" bay? Going air cooling, AIO or custom loop?

    New build/case with (very) old case fans, will it be enough?

    PWM is a 4th wire that allows the speed of the fan to be controlled by it. 3pin is just controlled by voltage. You can control PWM using a 3pin header, but like Nobu said some PWM fans don't like to be controlled by voltage. Found a review on Tweaktown "The second and last fan shipped...

    New build/case with (very) old case fans, will it be enough?

    I think you will be fine, but the thing I would be cautious of is how they are going to be controlled. Depending on what's included with the case, the Pure Wings could be PWM(4 pin) and the Zalmans are Voltage(3 pin). It's not to say that you cannot control both types of fans, I for one would...
