    NCASE M1: a crowdfunded Mini-ITX case (updates in first post)

    For sure, fans on the floor must be intake, never opposite to GPU fans of the 2070XC. I would go for standard 25mm, no problem they are near the GPU, it will push air through the GPU and help GPU fans. Slim fans only if your GPU is > 2 slots Bigger fan = higher static pressure = more flow for...

    NCASE M1: a crowdfunded Mini-ITX case (updates in first post)

    They are intakes. Yes they help air circulation in the case, as they are wider than the GPU, I've got better temps when activated, you can feel the air flow even if they are close to the GPU. I do not make them spining very fast (max 1200), else they get noisy because of restriction. But No they...

    GHOST S1 - When both size & performance matters

    I'm not sure to understand your sentence ! the metal clip that retain the fan is taller than the heatsink once modded, I have to bend it not to touch the side panel.

    GHOST S1 - When both size & performance matters

    thanks Yes i know it would have been great to get a video but I didn't make one. this is a simple sanding machine like this http://s1.lmcdn.fr/multimedia/761400141567/produits/ponceuse-a-bande-filaire-aeg-powertools-bbse-1100-1100-w.jpg me too, i was really surprised, but i've taken a lot of...

    GHOST S1 - When both size & performance matters

    hi ! everyone I've made my modification of a Noctua NH-L12S rad to make it compatible with the Ghost S1 I wanted to share the results with you. I removed -4mm to go from 70mm->66mm The modification has been done manually with a "belt sander" hand machine (french, not sure about the right word)...

    GHOST S1 - When both size & performance matters

    yes i know, that's why I've made benchmark before in order to evaluate the performance decrease after mod. Can anyone answer ? is the heatsink height limit 66mm (specs on louque website) or 68mm (from heatsink test PDF) ?

    GHOST S1 - When both size & performance matters

    Noctua NH-L12S slim fan is fitting perfect with standard Corsair LP RAM moduls https://i.imgur.com/FvaYNCk.jpg http://www.corsair.com/~/media/corsair/product photos/dram/vengeance-lp/black/large/veng_lp_k_x2b.png are you sure you would be able to fit a full size 25mm 120 fan ? would not it...

    GHOST S1 - When both size & performance matters

    The "old" standard Noctua L12 has only a 90mm fan under whereas the L12S has a slim 120mm fan which I think is far better. RPM dB/A m³/h mm H2O NF-A9 PWM 92x92x25 2000 22,8 78,9 2,28 4-pin PWM NF-A9...

    GHOST S1 - When both size & performance matters

    Hello, I'm à french backer for this fantastic case ! I plan to use à Noctua NH-L12S in this case. it is 70mm height so i will reduce it with an electric wire cutting machine (very precise, no damages) My question is : what CPU heatsink height does the case accept ? in the specs I see 66mm CPU...

    NCASE M1: a crowdfunded Mini-ITX case (updates in first post)

    well, difficult to answer ! I can compare only what i have tested, i did not test the one you are looking to. Air Noctua NH-C14 is very good in temps and noise, perfecly adaptated to the ncase, but you have to change the 140mm fans by 120mm as i've done if you want to push pull and also to put...

    NCASE M1: a crowdfunded Mini-ITX case (updates in first post)

    My CPU temps are OK with delidded i7-6700k @ 4.5GHz - 1.25V => idlle 25°C - game 45-50°C - bench 60°C, it could be colder with higher speeds but i like silence so temps are ok for me. Here are my measurment just afer delid (theese are internal cores temps not packet ;) ) My GPU is 65°C max...

    NCASE M1: a crowdfunded Mini-ITX case (updates in first post)

    I can't tell you that slim fans improved temps as I didn't test without them. I'm not sure about positive or negative pressure impact on temps. In my case the only intakes are the slim fans in the bottom of the case, previously they were standard, not slim but with the strix, no choice. The...

    Hi everybody I've just subscribed on the forum but I've been following the thread since a very long time (maybe from start !) It is the most documented I've seen,! thanks to everybody. I've had the V3 version, with different configurations over the years. I've always used the M1 with lateral...
