No, it is like the LP-53. Take off the fan, put on a slim fan - please read the whole post

Very few people in Denmark trusts paypal for payments between private persons - because the seller is almost fully fucked. It has happened alot, and almost every time they get scammed by buyer who gets the items and say they dont. We use something else called mobilepay (easier to get the police involved etc.) and bankdrafts. We are a small country, so very few trust buyers from outside DK, especially outside the EU.
EDIT: He is a member of 7 years of a Danish hardware forum, and is well known, so no need to worry
Thanks for showing that the top fan fits there.
So this edge I mentioned earlier in the thread didn't get in the way of the top fan or did you bend/cut it? It's a bit dark there but from the pics it looks like you cut the whole side of the PSU bracket.
If you did bend/cut it it's probably better to just drill couple of holes and lower the whole PSU bracket like I described here:
How did you mount the fan?
Could you test how much of a difference it makes?

So you're willing to vouch for him? I guess I'll try

Yes, the bar was removed.
It is not needed for the strength or rigidity for mounting the PSU. With it in place, a 12mm fan fit no problem, but the ridge creates noise.
Not sure how much of a difference, but if you place your hand over it you can feel the heat being pumped out, so I would assume its doing something!
Link to standoffs?

this is after an hour of stress tests, the 960 pro went upto 72°C but as you can see it didn't affect the speeds too much. maybe ill try it with the riser cable on the gpu side if i can be bothered to do that again.
high rez pic here
Yeah, I would've bought it if I didn't already own one
It finally arrived, and I live in Europe
Handling fee was €70, so total ended up with €300.
I lost track of this thread over 50 pages ago so as I am still missing something I wonder if someone kindly can give me and update.
i. For the least amount of noise possible, especially when idle, what cpu cooler is currently spoken about? I spoted silverstone something somewhere, but no idea if that works. (4690k, not oveclocked)
ii. I expect not to draw more than 300W, but I would prefer if the psu fan didn't spin, or make much noise, so I guess I should look at oversizing with a SF600?
iii. Are there any places to get custom cables, or maybe somewhere a kit and explanation on how to do it?

i. Noctua NH-L9i
ii. Some say the SF450 is better, other say the SF600 is better. Ich think the SD450 would be more quiet.

1. Either the L9i (easy, quiet, but high temps if gaming), or LP53 with the Noctua 92mm A9x14 slim fan attached too it (pain in the butt to mount, expensive, but better temps).
2. You should be fine with the SF450
3. Cablemod.com
dan, a suggestion: in the future, have your cases shipped directly to customers from Lian-Li via TW Air. Send your risers to Lian-Li too. It's a little embarrassing that I placed an order for an ncase AND received it in less time than it took to process a dan case in Germany via DHL.

Does your USPS page look like this still?

It looks like the Arctic Freezer 11 LP has a similar design to the Noctua L9i. They both have a copper block that contacts the CPU top that has a pyramidal cross-section. They both use two heat pipes that touch the side of the copper block and move the heat to higher outside fins. The fins are made of aluminium for both coolers.
The fan for the Freezer 11 LP clips on. This means that users would have to find a way to attach a new slim fan. The screws in the corners are to engage little plastic feet that use Intel-style push-pins. These plastic feet cause clearance issues with crowed sockets. That is what they say in the bit-tech review "make sure your motherboard has plenty of free room round the CPU socket, and keep your receipts just in case".
https://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/cooling/2012/07/02/arctic-freezer-11-lp-review/1
The slim fan will not be free. The Noctua NF-A9x14 slim fan costs around $16 and the Freezer 11 LP cooler costs about $17. This $33 total is getting close to the $38 price of the L9i cooler and fan combination.
If you buy it, please let us know if it works for you.
Yeah, I am thinking about it, but aren't fully prepared to move into the a4 sfx yet, as I am still waiting to purchase delid tool. I have the C7 and the LP52+a9x14, but may or may not try the 11-LP out..

Hey guys, a quick note regarding the AXP-100 Full copper from Thermalright.
It seems like I will be having a Skype conversation with them in the next few days hopefully.
Before doing so, I wanted to get any feedback from the community that might be worth passing on. Those who have modded their AXP-100s - any comments etc?

It sounds like you have a couple of the suggested coolers already.
Looking carefully at the construction and mounting system of the Arctic Freezer 11 LP, I think you should not buy the cooler. The fan frame also holds the screws for mounting the cooler to the plastic push-pin feet. Once you remove the fan, you will have no way to get your cooler to say on the socket. We both agree that the default fan can not be used, as it is too thick.

I only modded the normal version.
Only comment I can give is that it is extremly easy to do and I have actually ordered a new one (MORE HEATSINKS) which should arrive tomorrow. Dan voiced concerns about a potential reduction of the cooling performance if you bend the heatpipes, provided I get the heatsink tomorrow I will test both in my old PC without side panel (open air) to see if the performace stays constant.
Sadly I can't give you any more feedback as I did not do any testing yet, I will start this weekend with the first few heatsinks.
i'm the only one who modded it i think, my only comment is
why you having a skype with them anyways?

Thanks guys, I'll make sure to pass on your comments. The conversation is really just to see what they can do to help, if anything. Just came out some emails that were being sent back and forward.

I live in Atlanta and I still haven't received mine. Still hasn't updated and says Germany on tracking. Looks like location of states doesn't matter that much.
From my readings, the AXP-100 is the original model. Lower height and the tan and brown fan.
From there, there are three applicable suffixes, R, H, and Muscle
H refers to the a taller model that is a few mm taller. 65mm vs 58 (with fan)
R refers to a design styled for the Republic of Gamers. This means a black and red fan.
Muscle is also a fan colour change with the black and white fan.
Naturally you wont see R and Muscle together if their both fan colour changes, but you will see shorter and taller options in both R and Muscle designations. (Red or white fan)
muscle is cheaper as they say on their website :
FAQ 1
Question : I saw this model at your website which is very similar in look to your AXP-100 model. What are the differences between the two models?
Answer : AXP-100 Muscle is a budgetary version of AXP-100 that gives similar cooling performance yet at a more affordable price. The differences are:
– AXP-100 heat-sink uses a copper base while the Muscle version has an aluminum base instead.
– AXP-100 heat-sink does include an Enhanced Fan Mount to accommodate a 120mm fan while the Muscle version does not
– AXP-100 has certain cosmetic attributes that are not absent from the Muscle version such as the heatpipe caps, nickel plating, etc..
– Lastly, the AXP-100 comes with a Yellow&Green fan while the Muscle version has Black&White fan

Good catch. I almost bought a muscle to fit in with the x99e-itx before dan anuounced his hslpxgjtop-48
hmmmm, this is a lil bit alarming. the operating temp for the 960 should be limited to 70c deg only according to the specs. i am very concerned about the ssd's life span... i suppose having it mounted on top (with other mobo with front mount M.2) would probably have the same temp since it would be right beside the cpu...

Having lived in Southern California all my life...the US Post Office at Bells Gardens is notoriously known for being the "black hole." If the package isn't lost completely, there's a good chance it will be stuck here for at least a few days. I sigh heavily when I track a package and see it stop at this location.

What did you succeed using the backplate with Z270I?
When I tried to use it, in several different ways it conflicted with components mounted on the motherboard so I couldn't fit it properly !?
