Thanks for the feedback. I have the CPU/mem overclocked the easy way using the IMPACT VII BIOS options. I think a 10% increase for the CPU that is. Maybe I'll first add another pair of SP120 fans or something to push more fresh air into the case.
Cheers.
Anyone looking into this one? It's availability is good in EU as we speak and the price is "doable" :).

While I'm happy with my current air cooled set up, as it is very silent, it does get quite hot in the small case. Hence I might...
I can confirm as noted earlier. I need to open my M1v2 case and come closely to hear the fan of the SX600 v1.1 - again not sure what they done compared to the v1.0 but my PSU is silent. Once I game, the fan is not louder then the other fans in the case (Corsair SP120; EVGA FTW GTX970).
All thanks with regards my questions for the PSU cable mod.
Anyone experience with Moddiy? Seems they do mods specific for the SX600:

Gents,
I would like to invest in some modded cables to clean up the clutter in my M1 case.
Any guidance around this? I suppose I measure distance and have 2 options:
- DIY (not sure I would do this)
- order online (e.g. Moddiy; any others options?)
When measuring, anything specific I need to...
As I posted in the main M1 thread, I do have a V1.1 PSU, I think the noise is not disturbing at all. I do here the "bird chirp" if I open the case and listen closely. When the case is closed and on the floor (1 to 1,5 meter away) the whole set-up is silent. During gaming, the system needs to...
No idea. But from my experience, with the case like 1 meter away from me, below my desk, the noise that the PSU emits is not disturbing at all (as witnessed earlier). There is indeed a short and very silent "bird singing" when the fan starts but once it turns, I can't hear the fan. Even for the...
Another build and a very happy user ! :D

The strike is over as far as I know. At least for me (Belgium) my package arrived in BE after 2 months. I still have to receive it at home. I only hope after two months floating somewhere the package is still in good shape :).
Hello -- I see people making recommendations for 140mm fans for the Noctua NH-C14. Does the case allow for two 140mm fans in the side panel? Single 140mm + 120mm?
I was going for two 120mm fans for the side panel (and maybe at the bottom) but now I'm a bit confused.
Tx!
Thanks. I read on the net that this waterbock also fits many GTX970 cards. I like it a lot that both pump and res are inside the case, fit along side the gfx card and below the psu. Excellent inspiration!
So it is better or not? As I'm a bit confused by the "Fan still sounds crappy like my ..." :)
As long as load/temps are down it's probably better (due to fanless part); once the fan spins its similar as the ST45SF-G or better?
It's not really convincing. I didn't expect Seasonic scores, but then again it doesn't seem to be much better then the older 450w v2 unit ... :rolleyes:
It's about time you take contact with your national postal office and mention the tracking number. The parcel is probably waiting somewhere in your country for delivery until you pay the required customs tax :).
Alternate.nl has them at 149,90 + shipping. Cheapest so far for EU I found them in Germany, around 124,00 + shipping. But those shops do not ship to BE :(.
One more case found a new home ... just under €40 for customs. Excellent quality, no wobbling feet.
Building will happen in de coming weeks as components become available. With the GTX8xx rumours for Oct/Nov I hope to get everything spinning before Jan 1st 2015 :D.
Still hoping to get some news in the coming days ... case was shipped (TW Air) on 8/8; if it sticks at customs I assume it will take some additional days as its still holiday period in BE.
EDIT: just in touch with BE Post; customs demands proof of payment, so at least it arrived in BE :D
Cheers!
I got a mail from NACSE with tracking URL and number; and PayPal was indeed updated as well. Status in PayPal states shipped. Using the tracking URL it states that the parcel shipped with flight TG637 on Friday. Inbound country has not been updated, so I might be a bit too enthusiastic :D. Also...
The earlier mail (14/6) I got and confirmed order+shipping details and added my mobile phone. The August 4th mail I didn't get (yet). I ordered May 27th (according to PayPal).
I understand its busy times for them, but I opted for TW Air as I'm in EU, so don't think Dan needs to do anything for...
Still no mail from NCASE or update from PayPal (i.e. shipping info) :(
- checked spam/junk folder
- shall not panic
- shall not panic :)
- I hope I'm not alone without updates ...
- contacted NCASE ...
- need to be patient ...
