Sorry for the late reply: I used rubber fan mounts as I found that the heads of the normal fan screws were too narrow to sit nicely in the slots in my M1 (v2). I prefer the rubber mounts in any event, but I did have to trim them down so that they didn't foul the GPU.thanks for the advice, just ordered the 2 Noctua 120s. Do they screw directly into the bottom plate of the M1?
FWIW I went from a blower-style 660Ti to a non-blower 2070, and whilst to a large extent that's not a fair comparison, I have to say that the blower was really very noisy at full bore whereas the 2070 is extremely quiet until the fans get up to maybe 60%. But they very rarely need to do that, and even more so now I've added two intakes on the case floor. Sure, at 100% it's damn loud but I've never, ever seen even close to that unless I manually set the fans to do it for a laugh.Same here, I would like a comparison showing non-blower are better and more silent.
I have a 660 Ti blower in one PC and a 1080 Ti blower in the other one. I don't hear any as I control the fans speed with a curve, it's a must or you'll end up with noise. I guess the same need to be done with dual/triple fans cards to better manage noise but like everyone know, at least with blower no worry about heat.FWIW I went from a blower-style 660Ti to a non-blower 2070, and whilst to a large extent that's not a fair comparison, I have to say that the blower was really very noisy at full bore whereas the 2070 is extremely quiet until the fans get up to maybe 60%.
Indeed, but my point was that two fans should be able to run slower, and thus quieter, than a single fan in order to move the same amount of air.I have a 660 Ti blower in one PC and a 1080 Ti blower in the other one.

Depends of configuration, the blower push air in a closed space with heatsink in it way, no escape. While 2 fans blows air on a large surface but I know what you mean.Indeed, but my point was that two fans should be able to run slower, and thus quieter, than a single fan in order to move the same amount of air.
One possibility is that when blower revs fast, it's like a vaccum, sucking surrounding air and can interefere with case air flow. I wish it would be possible to add a duct to the blower intake so all fresh air in and all hot air hot without interfering with case airflow at all.And I didn't find that the blower was 100% effective in getting rid of all of the heat - temperatures elsewhere in the case would increase notably when the GPU was running under load.
I experimented with a duct between the case floor and the blower fan, to see if it made any difference, but it did not. I think that's in part because the ventilation on the floor of the M1 isn't great and the stock feet don't give much clearance which again hampers airflow. It does feel like you really need some sort of intake on the case floor to actively draw cool air into the case but I tried that with my blower and didn't find that effective either.Depends of configuration, the blower push air in a closed space with heatsink in it way, no escape.

Interesting, do you have a picture how you made it? I wanted to do the same initially when I was planning my build but in the end I only ducted the exit of U9S to outside of case. I wasn't sure how to properly fit/attach a duct on blower hole and on bottom of case.I experimented with a duct between the case floor and the blower fan, to see if it made any difference, but it did not.

True, some have a blower but are not sealed on the sides... kinda stupid design if you ask me.Also of note, a lot of blowers actually have vents that exhaust a fair amount of heat back into the case. For every blower I've had, it was always the vent opening for the CF/SLI/NVlink fingers.
I don't have a picture, I'm afraid. But rest assured it was as ghetto as it comes - I cut a circular section out of a plastic drinks bottle, cut it down to the required height and used tape to seal it at each end!Interesting, do you have a picture how you made it?

had to remove the realy small screw at the bottom so the plug would go a bit deeper maybe it would have worked with the screw in it , the plug would be at an angle and not realy deep

hi , thanks for the idea , i just wanted to menttion it for maybe a future v6.5 or so and maybe its only my odd becuase its needs a adapter and no one else will have this "problem" what it is not because the 2 screws left hold it realy well
I have some tweaks in mind for the SFX bracket in the next minor revision that should keep the PSU in place better. Won't be adding a screw at the front of the case, though.Import tax in Germany where the usually 19%.... Had to pay 40 Euro,
Anyway i transferred my build from v3 to v6 and there are some points
- more space for my aio, movement left to right is cool so I could move the aio far left and have more space for 2ssd back to back
- the bracket for the sfx psu feels a little flimsy compared to the v3, a screw to the front of the case would have made it a lot more stable
-I mounted a odd on the front bracket had to left out the screw on the low left side because it would have hinder the mounting of the adapter for power and sata cabel
Will upload some pictures later
I see, seems like the slim SATA adapter is the culprit. Not sure what else I could do about that. As you've observed though it does still work fine with only two screws holding the drive.had to remove the realy small screw at the bottom so the plug would go a bit deeper maybe it would have worked with the screw in it , the plug would be at an angle and not realy deep

Yeah, I would've added another screw hole there but I needed that part of the flange for the screw that secures the ODD bracket to the chassis.In the first photo the drives threaded hole is visible so it's not covered by the ODD tray's small black metal fold. Oh well. At least it's being held tight enough.
Not that I'm aware of.is there any 3d print stl or mod available for a front IOless panel? want to try and make my own instead of waiting for the official kit.
Hi everyone,
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I'm struggling to find an answer.
I'm trying to find the GPU compatibility list for the M1 V5. I assume there was a change in the compatible dimensions between V5 and V6, based off the change log:
- Enlarged chassis front GPU passthrough to facilitate GPU installation and provide more room for oversized GPUs
- Removed four panel mounting clips from side flanges to reduce incidence of oversized GPU conflicts
Was there a change in the supported dimensions and if so, can anyone point me to where the supported GPU's list is?
I've searched for a while and haven't found clear answers.
Thanks heaps

Looks like a very tidy build. Are you using the original power supply cables or custom cables? Also, what are the components of the system?
Thanks! After rebuilding my v5 dozens of times over the past year, I feel like I was well prepared for my v6 rebuild, haha. PSU cables are unsleeved custom lengths. Main specs are 9900k + 2080 Ti.
While the board itself fits in the case, it's 244mm deep, and even with the PSU mounted flush to the front, there's only 241mm available. So there's going to be 3mm of overlap. The PSU is offset to the left a bit so it'll clear the board's PCB, but the 24 pin ATX connector is right on the edge and will very likely be a problem.It's really cool that there is now a premium 2-slot MicroATX board that fits in the M1, the ASUS Maximus XI Gene. It would have been great if they'd given it 4 DIMMs though. ASRock should make a TR4 board in that form factor.
