Since it is USPS they won't, I would just contact your post office and have them hold it there for you to pick up. I did that for mine the moment it hit my local pot office and I was able to catch them before it even went out for the first delivery because I was going to be at work all day.
Case came in! Build is more or less complete. Latest security update nerfed the NVidia driver for OS X so currently downloading an older 10.10.1 installer which should resolve that. Other than that just have to finish the kext modifications to get the built in wifi and Bluetooth working. That...
I am, I was just tied of staring at boxed components. Hopefully it will be here soon. Also people weren't joking about the SX600. By far my loudest component. Very ready for M1 to show up so I can see what modifications I'll habe to do to the PSU casing to fit its Noctua replacement.
Any guidance on how long their M1 stays in customs? Mine was inspected on morning of the 10th, but hasn't leff LA yet. Just seeing if this is normal. I just want to build this thing so bad haha.

I'm not sure I have ever refreshed a tracking page this much in my life. Last remaining parts are showing up tomorrow. Hopefully that M1 gets here soon. I'm off the next two days and would be just the happiest man on the planet if it somehow showed up on either day.
That is the one thing that worried me, I've been sitting on CPU and motherboard for a couple of weeks. Really hoping they aren't DOA. I had tested my GTX 970, but I just swapped it for a 980 which should be here today hopefully.
I ordered on 2/22 so almost two weeks, but I blane most of that on Chinese New Year break.
Got everything ordered and should be arriving over the next week. Hoping everything makes it here by Thursday so I can build on my off day.
I never realized how happy a tracking number could make me.
Wahaha360 and Necere thanks so much for doing this project can't wait to build.
I guess I really need to buy my CPU cooler and fans since everything else is on its way to my house.
I have the Asrock z97e-itx/AC so my socket is pretty high up. If I went with the U9S my current plan was to intake from the case mounted 92 ducted to the cooler and then exhausting up, or doing a push/pull exhausting out the back so both CPU and GPU exhausted in the same direction. Although...
Would you say the noisiest part is just the SFX-L PSU? I had planned on getting the SG600 and just modifying it with a different fan to quiet it down. I had more or less sworn off the SFX-L since I had a reference length card and didn't want to be putting extra pressure on the card.
I really...
Well just used my friends M1 and a cardboard mockup of the H220x and it is possible, but not in a configuration I'm really comfortable with as far as trying to do that short a run, but being able to actually drain the system if needed. Also had to buy some baby stuff so budget won't quite allow...
Will just to find a way to route the AC cable. That is a definite backup plan. I've reached out to Swiftech to make sure it won't interfere with the setup in that orientation.
I'll give it a shot. My Asrock board doesn't have daughter boards, but it isn't close to the PCI-E slot. I think I might be able to make it work, but it is going to be the an incredibly tight fit. If it doesn't work I have a buddy I'm doing a build for that wants it, so at least I won't have to...
Has anyone tried fitting the H220X? I searched and saw the general sentiment is that it doesn't, but it looks like if you either make it an incredibly short run to the CPU or if it is oriented to the pump is on the lower front portion of the case and swap my reference 970 for one of the short...
Yup saw that Asetek patent sadly. Wasn't aware of the pump failure rate. Might just go full custom loop, I just liked how compact the h220 setup was considering it could do GPU as well since we are working with a rather small case.
Anxiously awaiting my M1, as I gather the parts for the build. I haven't been able to find the Swiftech H220 anywhere. Attempting to rad as much as I can I was bummed to see that it looks like the H220x won't fit. Amazon still has the Cooler Master Glacier 240L, it is the same exact setup right...
