Hi guys. Which CPU Cooler a best(perform and quite) for m1 v4?
Noctua NH-C14 / Corsair H100i(GTX) / Phanteks ph-tc14cs or another cooler?
Dark Rock TF fit in M1?
i7-4790k (delidded) (gonna be 4.2-4.5)
Impact VII
Kingston HyperX Savage x2
SX-500LG
I`m running Noctua nh-u9s dual fan for my delidded 4790k. Temps are much better than my expectation. 60C-70c running BF4. Stress test around 75-79C.
Does anyone know the thread size for the screws that hold the feet onto the case? My case is a little warped, and doesn't sit flat. I've shimmed one of the feet, but the screws are pretty short and I'm not left with much thread. I'd like to replace it with a longer screw to make sure it's attached securely.
Not out yet but do you guys think it will fit? Seems a bit long.

Have you checked the tips from post #1 regarding this issue? ...Just in case you missed it.
It probably fits lengthwise, but the pump at the end is pretty thick and will offset the rad relative to the mounting holes on the bracket, so it may not be possible to mount it.Hey guys,
I know the below has already been shown that the 295mm width will be a tight fit in the M1 for the EKWB Predator 240, but is there anyone willing to make up a mock-up cardboard version and see if it'd be possible? With 303mm available space, it *might* be able to be done? Maybe slipped in behind the case edges rather than on the radiator/fan mount?
There's only room for three 120mm fans, since the CPU cooler is tall enough that it blocks the rear half of the fan bracket.Do y'all see any problems with this build?

Alright, thanks I'll remove one of the fans. I was curious about that so I figured I would get four and if I couldn't use it I would just use it in another build.There's only room for three 120mm fans, since the CPU cooler is tall enough that it blocks the rear half of the fan bracket.
It would be the first one you linked...the reference model.
This one could work as well...Just found out about the Cryorig M9, looks like it could be cool for the Ncase.

anyway the U9S should perform better within roughly the same dimension because more metal is more better. 524g (U9S) vs. 345g (M9). Don't know about pricing though, but it would need to be significantly cheaper to make sense.
IIRC, its not exactly the same. Some of the lengths are slightly different.

The SFX bracket (and the other accessories) should be back up on the website sometime next month.I have the SX-500LG (SFX PSU from Silverstone) and was wondering if there's a chance they will be selling the SFX accessory for v2 owners?

What's everyone's thoughts on ASUS GTX960 MINI or the ASUS GTX960 STRIX? This is to go in with the NOCTUA NH-C14 air cooler...
Not at all. Due to the small cooler and reduced power layout (???) they don't do well with extreme overclocking, but within the standard design and typical power and temperature targets they perform as good as the larger cards. They are just louder under heavy loads, but not annoyingly loud. Therefore the mini-cards are a serious option for ITX-builders.I haven't really looked these little cards but... are they stripped down as far as performance is concerned?
If you plan to use an ATX-PSU, no luck with the GTX960 Strix and probably not the NOCTUA NH-C14 either (depends on the orientation). And with an SFX-PSU you could use full-size GPU instead and probably an 120mm AiO water-cooler if you can say good-bye to 3.5'' HHDs or switch to a blower-style GPU that won't interfere with a 3.5'' HDD in the bottom.
We need to know more about the planned hardware because the mainboard, PSU and HDDs have a say too in what will fit into the case. The GTX970 Mini will be no problem no matter what you do. The Noctua might conflict with the 3.5'' HDD-mount or an ATX-PSU if it cannot be mounted with the heat pipes facing to the front of the case (which is possible on the popular daugtherbord-designs from ASUS like the ROG Impact).
The ASUS GTX960 STRIX kinda makes no sense. It is already large enough to severly limit your options (only good thing is the extra space for cable management), and I would only accept these limitations (like SFX-PSU only) for a build that transfers the available space into performance.
Good points. My current plan is:
motherboard: Gigabyte Z170N-WIFI
cpu: i5 6600K
cooler: Noctua NH-C14
psu: SilverStone 500W SFX-L
For drives I'm just going to use the space inside the front panel for 2.5" SSD so no need for HDDs on the side panel (so C14 cooler will be fine).
I was thinking of the 960 mini along with a 120mm fan on the bottom-front bringing air into the case without being inhibited by the gfx card. The Strix is about the same price, bit better performance compared to the mini but I'm probably more concerned about the temps generated by the 2, especially with the air circulating through to the cpu cooler.
Was hoping there were some people out there using the ASUS 960 mini with the kinda half/half blower fan to gauge what kinda temps and noise it produces.
Cheers,
Steve.
- Shorter cards does make the issue of hot air traps much less of a problem, and i really see the benefit of going with a short one for that. However with a 960 overclocking headroom might be relevant fairly soon, so I'd consider a beefier version for that reason.
- Don't really see how an open air card makes cable management any harder than with a blower.

That's actually a good question. The placement of the connector is not particularly well suited for larger CPU coolers, that's for sure, especially since the USB 3.x connectors are usually rather fat/bulky.
I think it should be possible to find at least one position where the connector can be used or it might be enough to bend it carefully, as good as possible.
However, if you have the space for it the NH-D9L or NH-U9S models are probably less troublesome in this regard.
Kind regards,

Have you considered the placement of the USB3.x header on that board? I emailed Noctua and asked about that and got this in response:
Right now I planned on using the Noctua NF-F12 which will do great performance wise, but are so ugly. Any alternatives?
