  1. Looking for the best mini ITX case that supports a corsair H105 cooler. I understand the options will be somewhat large for an ITX, but unfortunately NCase M1 is out of my budget. Currently i'm looking at the Define Nano S, Phanteks Evolv ITX, and Corsair 250D. Any suggestions would be great, thanks.
  2. wow banned... anyways its difficult to find either the 1060 or 480 for under 300 right now bc of demand, but i'll be on the lookout for deals thx
  3. Mainly driver support and compatibility/optimization with future games
  4. Best graphics card under $300. Probably between the RX480 and the GTX1060, but i want the one that will be the most future proof. Current setup is: i5 6600k GTX 660 16GB RAM ITX ASUS z170 Pro Gaming LGA1151 mobo
  5. Is it worth it to get the Corsair K70 non RGB for $90 on Amazon? Their's a sale today only
  6. So I've heard that the K70 2016 vs the K70 Standard are the same except for the logo, which means that you can get the K70 Standard for $90. But there are also a few new keyboards coming out soon, including the Asus Claymore RGB, which looks awesome. I don't care too much about RGB (just something extra thats nice to have), but I do like the movable number pad on the Asus Claymore. My question is: what is everyone's thoughts on the K70 for $90? Good value? Should I pull the trigger and get it? I don't know the expected price of the Asus Claymore, so idk how to compare the value. I currently have an MX Blue CM Storm Quickfire TK with MX Browns, but i've always wanted a MX Blue keyboard as well.
  7. Is noise really that bad on Cryorig's coolers? Just ordered a Cryorig M9i for my first ITX gaming build.
  8. I will be overclocking my 6600k with the Cryorig M9i in my first Mini ITX gaming build. Parts list: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/gleggie/saved/kDfWGX Is it worth it to buy my own thermal paste? If so, recommendations? I will be using pea method and would like something under $10
  9. This article http://www.tweaktown.com/reviews/7426/cryorig-m9i-cpu-cooler-review/index6.html showed that temps were within about 1 degree C of the NH-U9S and about 1 decibel louder. These results seem too good to be true tbh lol but i'll do a little bit more research. I do like how the cryorig coolers look though. I wish Noctua made better looking fans lol. Thanks a bunch for the advice!
  10. Is difference significant? Like in thermals and noise? Because on Amazon the M9i is $26 while the U9S is $60.
  11. Thanks, I was looking at that, but I can't decide between the Noctua's NH-U9S and Cryorig's M9i/a
  12. I live in the US and I bought mine on ebay, but yea Lian Li cases are always difficult to find in the US. The case is all about looks lol but it definitely is not the easiest mini ITX case to work in. I got this case as a cheaper alternative to the NCase M1
  13. Thanks for the recommendation, and i'll fix the PC part picker.
  14. That is the PC-Q33, my case is the PC-Q10
  15. I'd prefer to stay on air, but thanks anyways. In my experience, radiators have been a bit noisy and i'm a bit concerned about leakage in the long term. So far the Noctua NH-C14 is looking like the best performing air cooler under 140mm
