amorphous_carbon posted a topic in New Builds and Planning

I just finished my build in the Fractal Design Ridge SFF Case, and my GPU is easily the loudest component, despite having an overkill cooler on it. Its an ASUS DUAL-RTX2060-A6G 2.7 Slot dual Fan GPU (https://www.asus.com/media/global/products/mkUmAkjRoeTnVDtP/P_setting_000_1_90_end_500.png) In my old system i have never seen Temperatures over 65°C, or fan Speeds above 60% (Bequiet Pure Base 500 Case, 1 140mm Exhaust, 1 140mm relatively restricted Intake). In the new System my GPU easily reaches 83°C, while also having the fans run at 2100rpm. For the GPU to fit i had to remove the 2 included 140mm fans, i would guess i have about 23mm from GPU fan to the Side Panel. So I thought it might be a good idea to remove the small 87mm x 12mm original fans fro the GPU and use the 2 140mm fans instead. Could a setup with about 10mm spacing between GPU heatsink and fan work? Would i be better off with smaller fans that more closely match the dimensions of the GPU heatsink? I also have space for 3 80mm fans on the top of the case, they would sit directly on the side of the GPU heatsink, could this improve temps/noise? Other ideas would also be appreciated. Thanks for your help!

Budget (including currency): N/A (components already purchased) Country: UK Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: 1080p / 4K gaming (60Hz) as a HTPC Other details: Intel Core i5-11400 2.6 GHz 6-Core Processor / Corsair H60 (2018) 57.2 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler / MSI MPG B560I GAMING EDGE WIFI Mini ITX LGA1200 Motherboard / Crucial Ballistix 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 CL16 Memory / Western Digital SN750 2 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive / NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti 8 GB Founders Edition Video Card / Silverstone SG13 Mini ITX Tower Case / Corsair SF 750 W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully Modular SFX Power Supply Hello everyone, first time poster looking for a bit of guidance if possible please. I've been slowly purchasing various components over the past year or two, with a view to building a gaming HTPC. I'd already identified building in a Silverstone SG13b, and up until this morning had bought all the parts except the graphics card. I had always intended to buy a 3060ti, as I felt that was the best fit for me. However, I managed to get a 3070ti FE this morning at RRP / MSRP...I just couldn't pass up the opportunity! I'm now a bit concerned that I've bought a GPU that is basically too powerful and will cause issues with temparatures / thermals, etc. I'm also conscious that one of the 3070ti FE's fans seem to push hot air back into the case, which is very small to begin with. This is also my first ever build, so I'm really not very knowledgable on PC building in general. There's a link to the PC Partpicker parts list below. https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/user/Legrange1977/saved/NmzJyc Any advice / guidance would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance

I have this PC that I slowly upgraded over time. I started with the Mainboard which came with one stick of PC4 Ram in a crappy SFF case. The whole build was filled with stone dust as I it free from the Ottawa LRT tunnel Group RTG for free. I have since transplanted the good components to a Corsair Carbide Series 4 case. I was lazy and did not reorient the CPU Heatsink nor did I put too much effort in the cable management. I purchased the PSU, GPU, RAM, Storage and Case. I want to find a nice Small Form Factor case that would allow me to replace the CPU Fam with an AIO, I also want to vertically mount the GPU for enhanced aesthetics. Better cable management should be on the list too to make it look good. I have reoriented the CPU fan and replaced the thermal compound since taking the attached photo. This case is too big the Mainboard but it was the most affordable at the time that would accommodate the then future GPU and the PSU. The old case was infuriated to use and look at. The Specs are here. I only spent $400 on this thing for the upgraded components aforementioned, The rest were acquired for free.

This is my first build. the main takeaway from my experience is don't answer the door for your family member, especially if they are prone to freaking out about the littlest issues. Anyways this is my build Case: nr200 MOBO: msi z690i unify CPU: i7 12700k GPU: msi rtx 3080 12gb z trio RAM: g.skill ripjaws s5 5200 cl36 [32GB] PSU: sf750 Cooler: u12a Storage: 2tb 980 pro m.2 nvme, 4tb pny m.2 nvme gen 3. 64c on 12700k while gaming 72c @90% fan speed on the 3080 Sorry for the wires and poor photo this was taken awhile ago when I first powered on my pc.

Hello all, I am looking into building a thin mini-ITX build for a lighting computer (stage lighting) that needs to render some 3d models for effects. Currently, what I have to work with is a Sandy Bridge Celeron with an HD 5450. So, anything I get these days is going to be a massive improvement. But, if I go into a 3d rendering of my stage on my i3-6100 (HD 530) i'm only getting around 10fps when I start to render my lighting scenes. While preferably I would get something with a gtx 1050, I can't really find a case that is small enough for the space requirements. So, it's integrated GPUs only and I can't really decide between an Intel and an AMD chip. I know that Intel is always going to win hands down when it comes to CPUs, but what about when I'm just going to be maxing out the iGPU instead of the CPU? So far, this is where I'm at in my build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/YQ6PQV Rationale: It needs to be very small, i'm currently looking at the Silverstone PT13 to house my motherboard and case and I would get the one with the included power supply. I want the boost in graphical power that you would get from going to an AMD APU, however; my heart is not set on it because... it's AMD and way less efficient than a Skylake chip. Looks like that ECS motherboard is the only slim mini-ITX that supports the fm2+ socket so that's my only option if I go the AMD route. And finally, the CPU is the 7860k because I can't really go above a 65w TDP and it seems to be the highest performing APU in the TDP range. Problem: I can't seem to find an FM2 cooler that is below the maximum height clearance for the case (which has to be at most 30mm). I've gotten close, https://www.quietpc.com/rv-vanxie, but I can't seem to get to where I need to on this. Questions: Any idea if I could to squeeze that cooler in to that case? Should I just forget this and get a NUC? Should I just build a skylake thin mini-ITX build and not worry about the differences in graphical performance? Should I do something else entirely?

So here’s the skinny. Lian Li Tu-100 6700k 270 Gaming 5 itx H60 AIO RX580 V1 (shortbus version) Custom loop with fuel line from Lowe’s Swiftech Micro Rez 2 Noctua 120x15mm x2 Silverstone 450 sff psu Gskill 32gb (2x16gb) 1 very janky cable from China that converts m.2 to pcie x1 with power from 4 pin molex for the WiFi and Bluetooth card fenvi t919 (hackintosh special) i built this little guy to see what all I could cram into this handled case. Lian Li hit a real homer in with this design. I see people singing it’s praises nowadays but a couple years ago TU-100 was a bit of a black sheep. Theres more then a few people who found it necessary to Frankenstein this case for the sake of air flow. All I did was punch a whole in the bottom with circle saw and remove the front end internal scaffolding. Hope y’all like it TClark

Hiya all! I'm planning a computer build and I am trying to decide between two different, similar cases. What are the merits, in your opinion of the Silverstone ML08B-H vs. the Fractal Design Node 202? I prefer the aesthetics of the Node 202 and the less cluttered interior, but I've heard the ML08B-H has better airflow (even without fans) and it is over 15 bucks cheaper since the Node 202 jumped in price on Amazon. In short, should I stick with my plan of the Node 202, and just wait for the price to go back down in a day or two, or should I get the ML08B-H? (Fortunately, since I am ordering some parts on Newegg with Newegg Premier, I can wait an extra day to figure this out.) Thanks a lot.

I'm looking to build a mini-itx build based on the Intel QM-77 chipset. I have a spare i7 3630QM that I am going to be using but I need help finding a board for it. preferably something under $150 but I'm having a hard time locating one! I have everything that I need laying around I'm just stuck on tracking down a board. Bonus points for an onboard Msata slot! <3 any help is appreciated, once I find it I will be doing a build log and everything!
