Ah yes, I see now. Welll I guess someone should try it out that can place a temperature probe in their PSU.

The build can be found here for reference.
What's the advantage of putting an internal reservoir in the M1? It's not visible from the outside so it's not an aesthetic feature, and there's no room to position it at the top of the loop so it doesn't double as a fillport.
Why not just not use a reservoir?
Why would the GTX 780 Ti be "low heat" ? If it generates 300W worth of heat, it will generate the same amount of heat as any other card generating 300W worth of heat.
In a case this small, made entirely of aluminium and by keeping the noise in check, you are bound to run into "hot zones". Mine is the top panel, because the radiator exhausts through there.
Man, I have an order for a black in, but I keep getting the urge to switch it to silver instead. It's just so...sleek, and won't show dust/fingerprints nearly as bad. Urgh decisions. D:
Ah yes, like that. I have to agree with you, the reference coolers on the AMD R9 290-series cards are bad, that's why I put a waterblock on mine. Expensive but now it is a lot more silentI thought the meaning of "low heat" in the context (in-case temperature) was obvious enough to be left unexplained. The GTX 780 Ti reference cooler dumps most of the heat outside of the case. The 290X Tri-X dumps all of it inside, indirectly heating the cpu through my large air cooler, forcing the poor little fan in the 450W sfx to spin itself to death, and pushing my ssd up to 55C (which may not be a problem at all, but I don't like it). In comparison, the 780 Ti is the "low heat" solution.
I had a 290X with the reference cooler installed a couple of months as well, which of course also was "low heat" in this context, but the noise was unbearable. The 780 Ti reference cooler is a lot more silent.

So that miniature reservoir... It should be able to fit inside the M1 right(Dimensions (LxWxH): 60 x 70 x 35mm)? under a water cooled graphics card, The only 2 problems I can see are the tubing going around the outside of the graphics card but that's been done before anyway, and then it being on the bottom of the case so attaching a fill line.
since I was looking for reservoirs that might be able to fit inside the M1 for some time (I even thought about sending a product suggestion to EK) another one that could fit is the Tecnofront Micro Trap Reservoir Measures outside (L x B x H): 105mm x 68mm x 41mm
any other ones that would fit internally?

Just did that, best of both worlds! Now if only they could combine the orders. :/
Is anyone else having trouble with payment through paypal?
I have tried two different cards, Visa and Mastercard and I only get an error.

Is the Noctua NH-C12P SE14 the best cpu cooler that allow to put a HDD?
Should I receive e-mail confirmation after ordering M1 (apart from payment confirmation)?

Not sure if it's the best, but it fits perfectly on my ASUS board. Just double checked my temps again yesterday, and I'm getting low-30's at idle and 40 to 50C during normal usage. With Prime95, most tests get me to low 70's and small FFTs gets me to 90C max. This is on a stock 4770k and only using a 120mm F12 fan with ~15mm gap (mounted on side rack).. should be slightly better using the included 140mm fan mounted direct to the heatsink.
If it's justified by the demand, I don't see why not. It's more w360's call though, since he has to do most of the work of managing orders, shipping, and customer support.Also, Necere are you considering a third run ?
I'm assuming you're talking about the H220x which was shown back in January? If so, don't expect it to fit in the M1. The pump/res hanging off the side of the radiator will never fit inside.Swiftech has an improved H220 coming out in the very near future, I saw it up for order on NCIX.

The original H220/Glacer 240L and the upcoming Fractal Design Kelvin are still your best bet for expandable AIO watercooling in the M1.
Back on the nano reservoir, I guess it would be possible to place it (and a 35X pump) straight above the full cover block for the impact (using a couple of 90º) and the top reservoir port could be routed up as a fill/drain port.
Yes I can see, but the first v1 was supposed to come with black feet, and they got shipped out with silver, just want to know if that is fixed in the v2.

@aceman, can you list the specs?
Cheers.
