No crossfire at all. I just happen to come up with a NANO 56 with no where else to mount it but in the sentry :)
I use mine as an HTPC Kodi also. Hows the ambient temp in the GPU area with just the drives? Mine get fairly toasty. Before adding the GPU i had my M.2 mounted inside a PCIe...
Are there any ATX motherboards that support bifurcation? Hear me out on this one first... ;)
I have a proposed build with a Cooler Master MasterCase5 using a vertical gpu mount that only allows a single GPU. Wanted to mount a dual GPU setup with EK blocks utilizing an EK FC Terminal Dual...
Thanks for the break down. Not trying to spin wheel again, just pointing out my experience in my use case. As mentioned I did my own testing and experienced the same with the core temps. My focus was on ambient. Just wanted to make that clear for others reading the topic. Pretty sure the...
I actually have a better idea... cool that gpu down with some water :) Project coming as soon as I can source a waterblock for the PowerColor VEGA56 Nano :)
BTW i actually tried that with some acyrlic and yes ambient temps were lower... ;) Used a infrared thermometer and temp probe from an...
I get the structural integrity of the cover can be compromised if additional vents were added from another post, but I really feel increasing the perforation and removing that "heatshield air distruptor" design on the GPU side would increase ventilation. Another reason was exposing the PCB...
I would be interested in that velocity stack myself.
I just bought one of these. Should be here tomorrow. Planning to install into my Sentry. Planning to mod it to help reduce the temps.
TBH the most crucial hardware that requires the most attention to temps is the GPU. Modern CPU's can...
I managed to cool the GPU area with my PCIE M.2 adapter by adding a PCIE exhaust blower. Now the warmest part of the chassis is the PSU area. Most likely due to the semi passive function of the Corsair SF600 PSU.
Yes I do realize that. That's why i feel it's important to have some sort of fan adapter for the gpu side. Similar to the bracket that was designed a few months ago.
The excessive heat is terrible on the GPU side especially if you have the Sentry on the Horizontal position. I don't even have a GPU on my build but i do have a PCI M.2 adapter that heats up a bit.
Yes. I've noticed with my 1.0 version laying horizontal inside a cabinet tends to get hotter than I would like. I don't think it would hurt to allow for fan fitment on the sides in addition to the increased ventilation. Honestly I would love to see a more asymmetric ventilation such as the S4...
The Swiftech MicroRes has worked out great for me in two of my builds, I have since moved on with a 5.25" Bitspower Bay Reservoir. Still waiting on an X99 setup, as I was able to secure a couple Sapphire VAPOR-X R9 290X 8gb cards in crossfire.
The progress of my Silverstone TJ08-E Rebuild...
I noticed that also. Maybe as long as you use an SFX PSU along with the ATX bracket it can still fit? The size limitation also knocks the Noctua NH-L12 (93 mm) out of commission. The article also mentions It will work with SIlverstones TD03 AIO.
Thanks! I'll update the thread!

GPU's up to 10.5 inches (266.7 mm)

You would be fine with SLI in the Rosewill Legacy U3, however keep in mind because of the PCIE MATX spacing you will be limited in air flow between the two GPU's. If you decide to go this route I highly recommend reference blowers. Your best bet for maximizing this setup will be to consider...
Confirmed: Target MSRP is $30 USD for Silverstone's Sugo SG05 successor SG13

You have a few options if 10.5 Inch cards are your flavor. GTX 780 Ti / Titan Black are all 10.5 inches (266 mm). I wouldn't be surprised if the forthcoming GTX 880 will be the same.
Well if you consider the SG05 is 10.8 inches (276 mm) (including plastic front face plate) and can fit a GPU up to 9.5 inches (242 mm) in its factory trim, with a modified front frame panel you open up about 10.75 inches (273 mm) for a longer GPU.
In comparison to the new SG13 the minor...
The temps are pretty good: CPU is 30-35 C and GPU is 64-69 C at load. It's not very loud at all. I'm using the Silverstone ST45SFG 450Watt Gold Modular PSU. I'll have updated numbers and a more detailed analysis once I get my water-block for my GPU.
I agree the honeycomb look on the side is a little different for my taste, I would suggest the USB 3.0 on the sides instead and have a cleaner looking face plate. I do like the subdued embossed Silverstone logo on the bottom left corner. Then again knowing Silverstone they will probably have an...
That's what i'm thinking. I may evolve my SG05 to this new case to fit a larger radiator while maintaining a high radiator FPI. Now are there any 140mm fans that are as good if not better then the Gentle Typhoon's static pressure?
Well if you consider the SG05 is 276 mm (including plastic front face plate) and can fit a GPU up to 242 mm in its factory trim, with a modified front frame panel you open up about 273 mm for a longer GPU.
In comparison to the new SG13 the minor gains you get with the depth opens up many...
Looks like we have a spiritual successor to the Sugo SG05 which will fit longer GPU's without cutting out the front panel, straight from Computex 2014. Otherwise known as the Silverstone SG13 Prototype. Target price is $30, with no internal 5.25 inch drive and optical bays. The front intake is...
