SD-01A + the spacers is what I am using. http://www.performance-pcs.com/lian-li-case-feet-casters

Yeah it's nice when it only takes 40 seconds to change something out. Yeah I kept the C14 from my original build. And while the case paint definitely chips pretty easy, this is after some pretty rough and numerous builds, tried all watercooling configs, big air, little air, etc over two years...

Done with my custom loop for now. Back to air.

Very interesting layout. Look forward to seeing some testing.

They're the Black Ice GTS w/ 16 FPI. I would definitely recommend a reservoir for your build but that's me. As for the MCP35X you can easily handle 2 block and 2 rads. Although the bottom rad in the NCASE doesn't get the best airflow. I wen't with 5/8" because of some of the tight bends.

I've used HWL rads in both of my NCASE builds. https://pcpartpicker.com/b/qCsJ7P https://pcpartpicker.com/b/W68Ycf You can expect even lower temps running just an i5 and lower TDP 1080.

So I fixed the link. To start not all rads are created equal and the thickness of one rad doesn't automatically mean it cools better than a slimmer one. Most thick rads require higher fans speeds to cool as well as slim rads. You can actually see here that the 38mm EK-PE performs worst than...

Do you already own the EK-PE rad? My first build was actually with the Apogee and EK-PE radiator. The 90 degree fitting from Bitspower would touch the front of the fan so I could only use them as intake. Using a 240 GTS from HWL saves 8mm and it's actually a better rad cooling wise. Here are...

This pump/res combo from Phanteks looks great depending on it's height..

Why red? :(

Zotac announced two mini 1080 Ti cards. One with a water block! It looks a little bit over ref size so it's not a sure thing yet but this would be great. Have size cards allow for a D5 down below. https://videocardz.com/69781/zotac-introduces-a-pair-of-geforce-gtx-1080-ti-mini-cards

Look perfect for bottom rads. Hope they perform well.

I did run just a 240 for a bit but when adding the 120mm to the bottom I went from a 1080 to a 1080 Ti. The difference is negligible. I've done pretty much all the possible radiator configs you can do in the NCASE and the bottom rad just doesn't do enough. If you have one laying around though it...

Upgraded some parts of my build and redid the loop. Let me know what you guys think. http://imgur.com/a/F6W6M

What CPU cooler do you have? Open air cards work great if you have a way of getting the air they put out, out of the case.

I've never actually used it. Looks like it sort of just clips on though. I know Gelid sells an adapter to that will let you plug your fans into the GPU. You can also of course just use SpeedFan.

Is it this card? http://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=08G-P4-5173-KR? If so they use the ref PCB and you should be all set. For the Accelero you remove the shroud that has the 3 92mm fans and use your preferred fans at the bottom of the case.

As long as its a reference PCB, you should be all good.

What fittings did you need to connect the GPU to the res? Looks like a 90 -> tubing -> snake fittinng (90? 45?) and then I can't see anymore :) Also, thinking of rad setups for the bottom of the NCASE. Keep the fact that it has very restrictive airflow in mind.. Would a 120mm rad with a 25mm...

I've definitely noticed that pulling air through the rads into the case has a "hot boxing" effect. So I've had my side rad as exhaust for awhile. I'll try push exhaust again and see what happens. I feel like the slim fans would struggle pulling air through the bottom rad if they were in a...

Question for the dual rad NCASE boys. Fans for the bottom rad - Push or pull, intake or exhaust? I've tried both but my attempt with using pull was when I had a EK SE on the bottom so any temp difference (which was like 10 °C) I would chalk up to switching to a HWL GTS. Wondering if anyone did...

What is the Lian-Li part # for the side panel clips and is ncases.com the easiest way to get some replacements?

PM if that works out. There are a few other alternatives but that is easily the best one.

Yeah that is a perfect setup. Where did you get the Aquacover DDC top from btw? I've been searching for awhile.

1. About 45mm. You basically need a DDC top that has In/Out on the sides. 2. 1080, only a reference PCB card will fit in the NCASE with a waterblock on it. 3. EK but I know Bitspower and Watercool blocks also fit.

Do you monitor your water temps at all? If so, what is your max water temp? Also, how are those fans?

Never seen anyone fit the the res between the CPU and the rad before. Nicely done, what pump are you using?

The FTW probably is going to fit either tbh but yeah you're right. The QDC just makes things slightly easier but aren't needed at all. If you want to swap out a part just drain, disconnect the part, etc.

StrawKite Don't try to watercool the strix in the Ncase. It's not gonna fit. Don't get the EK-CoolStream PE 240. It will fit but it will only fit one way and it is crammed in. See me doing that here - http://i.imgur.com/aFaF0hw.jpg The rad to get for the NCASE imo is the Black Ice Nemesis...

Finally dude.. Did you end up picking hardware?

Those slims fans have been in the works before the NCASE was even a thing so don't hold your breath with Noctua. That said the max temps on most CPU coolers aren't that different between 1 fan to 2. It's mostly the noise level you can maintain with both fans running slower. If anyone is looking...

I even switched the both rads to HWL GTS and saw no real change. Swapped out the case feet to be a bit higher and still don't think any real air gets to those fans to push through the rad.

Anyone who runs dual 240mm rads mind posting their temps at idle/load? The temp difference of adding the second rad for me was almost unnoticeable. I know it's a slim rad with slim fans but I thought I would see a bigger drop.

What 1080 water blocks fit a ref PCB in the NCASE?

Are these the Lian-Li stack able case feet?

Mixed feelings really. They're expensive, somewhat bulky, have shitty QC (had two bad fittings out of the four I originally bought). They look great though, are convenient, making taking the rad out easy and make filling and draining the loop so much easier as well. If you've got $100 to blow...

Do you have pics of your rig?

53C max on the CPU and 43C max on the GPU playing Overwatch for a couple of hours.

Finally done with my build. More pics here - Black and Chrome NCASE M1

That block makes me want to move to X99 right now. What are your GPU temps? Do you not have a res? I've seen people use 92mm rads before on the side.
