You can see in this image, the power connectors on SFX-L will push down on larger graphic cards causing them to sag.
Are they any L shape power connector that we could use? In order to avoid the push down.
Can we use this PSU with a Noctua C14?

Was getting the same thing, if you click on the Imgur in the upper left corner it will take you to the Imgur page.
Yes. Only the length of SFX-L power supplies is greater than SFX ones, so it is no closer to the motherboard or the CPU cooler in the M1 case.
qrash... "Are they any L shape power connector that we could use? In order to avoid the push down..."
This is what I would like to know also, as this Silverstone SX700-LPT PSU really appeals to me as a possible substitute for the Corsair SF450 or 600 in my upcoming M1 build.
I do not know if there are L-shaped power connectors. The power sockets on the SX700-LPT appear to extend outwards from the power supply surface a few millimeters less than they did on the SX500-LG, so there should be less pressure on to long GPUs. Compare the photos on the Silverstone website. I think when the SX500-LG came out someone trimmed the plastic of the power cable connectors to make them shorter. The forum's Search engine should be able to help finding those posts, unless I'm mistaken. Another option is to remove the backplate from your GPU to gain a couple more millimeters. If you do that, I would cover the rear of the GPU card with an insulating surface because the power supply wires may still contact the card. Finally, a little GPU sag is not that bad, though I understand why you'd want to minimize it. Good luck!
What do you guys think is a good GTX 1070 for a set up using an NH-U9S to cool an i7?
I'm planning on the founder's edition though this is my first build in years so i have no idea what I'm doing.
Got my GTX 1070 today and finally done with my build
Here are some pics:

For an easier install/setup and piece of mind for my M1 build, I think I'll just go with the Corsair SF600...
I have friends at other forums that think I should cancel the M1 order and go with a larger/easier to set up Mini-ITX case... like the Phanteks Evolv... not as funky as the M1, but an easy build.
Another mounting option from a year and a half ago is to mount an SFX-L power supply at the front of the case using an ATX-SFX adapter. In that post the power connectors and cables clear the end of the reference length Geforce card. The SX600-G came with an ATX-SFX adapter place, but I don't think the later modesl from Silverstone do. They do sell the PP08 plate now though.
Many thanks.
So just to be cristal clé at, the pp08 plate allo me to install the sfx-l on the front office the NCASE. Thus the câble management will be easy.
Is that it?
I will go with à gtx 1080 customized with à arctic accéléro III and à ssd nvme directly on the MB plus à nocturne nhc 14.
I should be ok with this configuration no?
( CPU 5820k or 6700K)

I would think the SFX-L PSU would still have issues with a full-length GPU, even when mounted to the front (like an ATX PSU); as is stated clearly on the Ncase M1 website (Compatability tab), SFX-L PSUs WILL interfere with full-length GPUs…!
That looks just like my build, just with less fans.
How is the Corsair SFX PSU? Are the leads long enough or do you find yourself limited by the short lengths?

I could never get the holes on the PP08 to align with the ATX bracket that came with Ncase.
I guess you can chalk me up to another unhappy frozenq customer. Orders been pending for nearly a week now, contacting them gets you nowhere. They also dont have a phone contact. Maybe this will be my motivation to 3d model one that can be 3d printed....
EDIT: Yet they respond very very quickly to paypal disputes. What a joke.

As someone who has been exhaustively researching builds whilst waiting for their M1 to arrive, I'd like to offer some suggestions based off of my observations:Hi, I'm planning to build my first PC and was hoping to use the Ncase M1. I had a few questions I was hoping to get some help with:
Hi, I'm planning to build my first PC and was hoping to use the Ncase M1. I had a few questions I was hoping to get some help with:
tl'dr version: I'm a noob. Would MSI GTX 1060 Gaming fit? Recommendation for Z170 motherboard? NH-C14 is the cooler to go for?
1) Is it possible to fit the MSI GTX 1060 Gaming in the Ncase M1? Reason I'm keen on this card is I would like a very quiet system under load and this seems to be the quietest 1060. Would prefer to avoid water cooling and would be nice to be able to use a stock cooler. I see that the MSI Gaming GTX 1070 and 1080 are listed as 'probably won't fit'. However, I see that there seem to be a number of people who have fit MSI GTX 970 Gaming cards in the Ncase M1 seemingly without needing to mod the case (someone posted a pic in the google doc showing how the heat pipes on the 970 touched the case panels but it did fit). The dimensions on the MSI website seem reasonably close to me:
1060: 277 x 140 x 39 mm
970: 277 x 140 x 35 mm
1080 X: 279 x 140 x 42 mm
There only seems to be a few mm between the 1060, 970 and 1080. Thickness seems to be the main difference but from what I understand the real issue is height and power connection location. I know that dimensions don't tell the full story - but I'm too much of a noob to figure this out. The main difference in shapes that I can see are that the 1080/70 boards seem to be a 'full rectangle' while the 970 board had a bit cut-off in the top left corner while the 1060 has no cut out in the top left corner but has a smaller cutout in the top right corner. I'm guessing the answer is that the cut out in the top left of the 970 is what lets it fit and that the MSI 1060 Gaming won't fit but I'm hoping the answer is I could squeeze the 1060 in there :-P
2) Was hoping to get some help picking a motherboard. The two I have narrowed things down to are Asus Z170i Pro Gaming and Asrock Fatal1ty Z170 Gaming-ITX/ac. I was leaning towards the Asrock because it has a USB C port, but that's not a deal breaker. I'm inclined towards a Z170 mobo as I like the idea of having the option to overclock even though realistically I don't plan to overclock (as I'm guessing will prevent me from having a quiet system). I would like M.2 2280 support which seemed to leave just these two and two Gigabyte boards, and I skipped the Gigabyte boards as I heard their fan control options aren't as easy to tweak (I would want to tweak fan settings to reduce noise). If there is a non-Z170 mobo that would be a much better choice I would be open to that. Does the layout of any of these motherboards cause an issue?
3) CPU cooler recommendation? Noise is the key concern. I saw that NH-C14 was recommended as a good choice so picked that, but I don't really have any idea if that is the best choice or if it would cause any fit issues with other parts.
Parts I was thinking of below. I know the quantity of RAM is silly but if anything else is problematic please let me know.

CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-C14 CPU Cooler ($89.99 @ Memory Express)

Thanks
So it s coming on august 2!
Nouvelle GeForce Titan X: GP102, 11 Tflops, 480 Go/s - Cartes Graphiques - HardWare.fr
The question is.... Will it fit?
Five more days until the next shipment! I'm excited! How long did it take for it to reach state side?

Wow... Are you on the West coast? I'm in Rhode Island.I got my case 6 days after it shipped.

The M1 and the Evolv are 2 very different cases. Every post I've seen that mentions the Evolv, fails to mention the Evolv is almost triple the size of the M1.
Besides...what's the fun in easy? You'll appreciate the M1 more if you go that route and finish the build. This thread is 500+ pages and is not heavy on complaints
