Yes it states on the side of the box as well "M1 v6.1" for the newest. I don't have my v4 or v5 boxes anymore so can't confirm those.

I can't recall the site as I have been bouncing around (will update once I find it again) however they stated both 3080 and 3070 foundation cards will fit in stock configuration.

I agree with HWLabs radiator. They make some amazing radiators, have been using them for a very long time in other builds. On the topic has anyone compared a stand alone DDC vs pump/cpu block combo? I know the head pressure on the cpu/block combo will be less but wonder if anyone has tested it.

Side, rear or bottom mount you will want to use any chassis header. CPU header should really be used by just your CPU heatsink fans to allow it to adjust to temps.

Wait is that a bottom mounted RAD? I can't say that I have seen that before, really curious how it turns out.

When you get it done or as you progress make sure to post about it! I am actually curious about this configuration as well.

Was there no room to side mount the radiator along with the res? This was the main reason I held off from going this route is due to not being able to expand or replace components yet. Even replacing the res top with just a plexi you would either need additional aluminum fittings or run a...

Maybe it has been mentioned here and I just missed it but is anyone looking at the EK Fluids for a cheap side mount radiator kit? https://www.ekfluidgaming.com/ek-kit-a240g The only concerns I can see are with the GPU block (looks super wide) and the pump/res in trying to find a mounting...

I have the exact same board and power supply and I don't recall my exact lengths. If memory serves me I went with the same length as what Corsair provides but went shorter on the 24-pin and a little longer on the 8-pin just to make sure not to have a ton of excess.

I ordered mine back on 5/17/2016. Must be they ran out of stock sometime between then and now.

Odd, that is where I got mine and it was the NH-C14 version not the S variant.

Got mine from newegg.com

I did a search but couldn't find it and honestly don't think they make one for this motherboard but does anyone know or seen a water mono block for the ASUS Z170 Pro Gaming boards? I know they make them for the VIII impact board.

Cool, I was just curious because I have always used HW rads for my builds and when I decide to move from air to water on this little box just wanted to see rough numbers on what to expect. The slim fans are what have me trying to determine what wattage I will be able to dissipate considering I...

Chapeau I probably have scanned or searched over it but since you have changed to a HW radiator what are your temps looking like under load? I saw you mentioned they dropped but didn't happen to see a number to go with it.

I have been using my v5 for a while however today I had a need for my front USB only to find out that one of the ports isn't working. Has anyone else had one of their USB front ports die on their case? What was the fix (guessing re-wire it).

Yeah the NH-C14 isn't hard to find still. Newegg still carries them from time to time. NH-C14 - Newegg.com

When I sleeved a set for my SF600 I made my own pin out simply because I didn't want to trust internet information on something like that. Your fan shouldn't spin up all the time, at least mine doesn't. Just take your time writing down the pins and marking them, I used little 3M label on the...

I can't honestly recall ever hearing my SF600 either. It rarely spins up but that may be due to having extra head room so the components don't require cooling very often.

very cool, be interesting to see if anyone else does small pcb with 10 series

I have been playing around with my fan configurations on my v5 and wondering if anyone else noticed a difference on the Noctua NH-C14 using two 120mm on the side bracket rather than just the 140mm. I don't have any additional 120mm "good" fans to test with and just some super junky ones at the...

The biggest reason I went with the 600 over the 450 is because it gives me a little extra head room in the event I build or change something down the road which places stress on the 450. Granted I don't honestly foresee this happening but you never know.

I use the SFX600, no problems at all. The cables are stiff but that is about all. If you want to make cable routing a tad easier sleeve them or get some cablemod cables.

The last stress test which I did was MOBO - 34°C and CPU 51°C however keep in mind my system is in a basement which the ambient is 64°F (17°C). I am also waiting on a 1080 card so the test was done with my previous 780TI I had laying around.

I am running the same board and haven't had issues with temps on either motherboard or CPU. I am running a Noctua NH-C14 on my CPU which has been overclocked currently running with 1.20v. Are your temps being pulled from the bench utility? Have you tried any other temp monitoring tool?

Wow another Mac head, here I thought I was the only one. My mother worked for a news paper company as a graphic designer so we always had Mac's around the house. I think the earliest one we owned was the original Mac (with the whopping 128k RAM). After that her job provided her the latest...

Ah very cool, I didn't realize it fit. I saw some reports early on that it didn't. I am using the older version with just a 140mm on top and 120mm under it.

Don't have my GPU yet, still on the waiting list for my EVGA 1080 SC

If I am not mistaken the NH-C14S doesn't fit the M1, where as the NH-C14 does.

Any special reason you are choosing to go with 2200RPM fans on the bottom? Most of the flow they will provide will be blocked by your GPU. I personally went with some NF-A15 PWM mainly because they are quite and still provide a little airflow. Curious, does anyone else use high RPM fans in the...

I went with the ASUS Z170 Gaming Pro mainly because I have always had pretty good luck with their boards and wanted M.2 which sadly their Impact board does not have otherwise I would have went that direction. With most boards now in days if they have the features you are looking for you are...

Very nice, even your core temps and system sensors are pretty good. Yup I agree on the cable management. I think once that gets cleaned up the internal temps may drop a little (1-2°c possibly) not enough to make a huge difference but a little extra helps.

Yup I noted your post as well in the information I have been gathering. I have been pulling information people post on temps along with their configurations in a spreadsheet to give me a good "guesstimate" on temps when I have my final build. It is interesting to see how slight variations make...

Very cool, be interesting to see temps of the system in stress tests once you have all the panels back on. Congrats on the build.

I haven't yet ordered my card for the v5 build but I have been leaning towards blower just to keep the hot air out of the case. That being said I would like to see some temps of the 3rd party cards to see if the extra heat dump is even that large considering we have very few blower style options.

They do, you need to use their configure application. Configurator | CableMod Global Store

I would go with cablemod if you were just wanting to buy a set. If you wanted to save some money you can do it yourself for a fraction of the price. I use cable from mainframcustom when I do mine. Not hard to do, just takes a little time.

Nope, didn't have to sign for it. Probably different for everyone however because I know most of the delivery guys who drop stuff off to my house minus DHL. For whatever reason DHL has dropped stuff off in vehicles ranging from normal Yellow delivery truck to super shady white van that should...

Hard saying at this point, we will need to see some good benchmarks to really know what we are getting into. It seems interesting but I wouldn't jump the gun yet personally.

I am probably going to go the same path at least with a blower style. I did see that EVGA has a blower model which isn't founders. Rather have as much hot air out of the M1 as possible.
