    NCase M1 dual radiator build log and question

    PETG Tubing would of been ideal choice for a very important reason that fittings for it can be twice smaller and thus much less bulky. Its a bit late since you have all the fittings but maybe my setup will spark your imagination. Its much cleaner after all.

    Just a few pictures, I had rebuild my M1 at least 4 times from ground up until I got what I wanted. This is its pre last stage, final stage I haven't taken pictures yet.

    NCASE M1 v3 Build Thread

    Darkside LP240 is the best you can get, previously had XSPC RX240 and the performance was beat by Darkside by about 4-5 degrees.

    Is the EK Vardars a copy of the 2nd gen Gentle Typhoons?

    Its very likely due to age because I bought them with my EVGA SR-2 and dual X5690s back in the day and its been about 4-5 years. I do appreciate your link to DazMode comparison, made me quite a bit sad but I haven't finished the build yet so we will see maybe performance will increase since I...

    NZXT Kraken X61 Liquid Cooler (Direct Die Mount made Easy)

    I am building for a friend of mine and discovered something interesting, wanted to share with people especially considering how easy the mod is. Requires no mounting plates, special screws or mounting kits. Most is already useful from X61. Delid the CPU, vice with block of maple wood and hammer...

    Is the EK Vardars a copy of the 2nd gen Gentle Typhoons?

    The EK are much better in terms of noise and make absolutely no motor noise unlike my previous GT AP-13. Packaging is bland and sleeving is low quality yet for the money they cost its much to be expected. The ones in pictures are already sleeved. They are the most exciting fans yet.

    Greylith: All Aluminum Liquid Cooled Vertical SFF

    To be honest I am sure most people as I am also are interested in the version that can accommodate full size parts. I would want to buy the case because its one of very few vertical cases and has a side window which would make a good show case if built with contrasting parts.

    Asus ROG Maximus VII Impact

    Boots up and works perfectly, running Windows 8.1 with no problems or preparation/drivers. The only issue is that it gets very very hot during large file copy, using thermal pads and outer shell of M.2/WiFi combo card worked very well

    Asus ROG Maximus VII Impact

    The video card with EKWB Waterblock fits just right but fittings should be smaller like Bitspower because the Koolance are huge really huge I was shocked when I got them in mail. There are about a 1/4 Inch clearance between the card and the Reservoir Pump Combo with Heatsink. I had Impact VI...

    Asus ROG Maximus VII Impact

    Clearance is plenty for the fans, i had to recess them in to the radiator because its an XSPC RX240 that is 46mm thick, and best for lowest fan speeds. My 780Ti Super Clocked gets to 58C maximum with fans at 800RPM. Its an honor that the creator of such a well made case has seen and spoken in...

    I lost USB ports but retained Audio ports and Power Button. The reservoir was just fit so some clips had to go.

    Asus ROG Maximus VII Impact

    The reservoir has 5 bolt holes on the bottom already, drilled holes in the case on the bottom and have put NoiseBlocker rubber bushing that isolates the surface of the bolt and its threads making no contact what so ever with anything. Its surprising but from what I see there is much interest in...

    Asus ROG Maximus VII Impact

    Its an EK-SBAY DDC 3.2 PWM - Pump and reservoir combo Works absolutely perfect and best of all since pump is not part of the radiator that is above all components there are no bubbles or any air trapped inside since its the lowest point in the case I had this built a few months ago but moving to...

    Asus ROG Maximus VII Impact

    Rebuilding from Impact VI to recently bought Impact VII, quite a headache as you can see. Will be getting an M.2 XP941 SSD 512GB will report its compatibly and most importantly ability to boot straight from it. Got 600W SFX PSU, works fine like the previous 450W but fan makes a slight whining...
