Just rebuilding my system in a stupidly small case, now with 100% less cardboard.

 

Specs:

Delidded i7 6700K

Cryorig C7 Modified Nexus Low 7000

16GB DDR4 2400

512GB PCIE M.2 SSD

EVGA GTX 1080Ti

Corsair SF600

Fractal Design Node 202

 

Day 0: Finding a temporary CPU cooler

 

 


IMG_20170822_190947.jpg.d74a33cc9b82ce1006e91b7ada00bcfd.jpg

 

All shipping from california, but knowing my luck, I'll get the CPU cooler later. So I figured I'd see just how small of a cooler can cool an i7 6700K thats been delidded. And it turns out... Not much is needed.

See what slug based heatsinks and delidding can do? Take note, intel.

IMG_20170822_130926.thumb.jpg.55fe02c46eb3311cf39fb850837b9896.jpg

 

 

Complete!

Spoiler

Boy, what a ride this was.

IMG_20170823_135354.thumb.jpg.de6802a6d545c93748c415c1a095c44b.jpg

 

 

First thing I did was cram, and I mean CRAM everything in here.

IMG_20170823_151608.thumb.jpg.efd8b47fc2c529c46585233dac44208f.jpg

 

Intake fans are literally right up against the GPU. This GPU has a fanless BIOS, so it might actually stay fanless for a decent load.

IMG_20170823_152158.thumb.jpg.fc5676d2eab7366f00ef7f52df9e68e6.jpg

 

Putting the cryorig C7 in wasn't easy, I had to edit my old backplate since the supplied one hit the chassis...

 

It was also SO CLOSE to hitting the inductors on the board

IMG_20170823_154243.thumb.jpg.965e148ec24f5b611aceaa64dbc67fcf.jpg

 

So this is where I'm at right now:

IMG_20170823_154624.thumb.jpg.c56468511cb85a8206972c7d07e50b42.jpg

 

Time to button it up and stress test it!

IMG_20170823_160219.thumb.jpg.cb9ba5f9c1473bc6cc24a2ac05f42d54.jpg

IMG_20170823_160801.thumb.jpg.cfca2577d376f81ca3ca4a520d0c0816.jpg

 

 

It runs pretty toasty, and unfortunately that is because most of the GPU exhaust is EXITING the CPU intake.

IMG_20170823_160417.jpg.f798847016a9f13efbd60449093b99a4.jpg

 

Thats too hot for me, and its not even overclocked. Lets see what I can do about that. My old cooler, the nexus low 7000 was too tall for this case.

So in typical iamdarkyoshi fashion, I edited it.

IMG_20170823_173959.thumb.jpg.13d4bd38c401e421865446eea6b3de8f.jpg

 

It sits very low in the machine, and I had some clearance issues with the fan. Nothing the saw can't handle! Note that this is an EXHAUST now.

IMG_20170823_180536.thumb.jpg.3eb3a4d2241b1326a1eb79b83baf9fc3.jpg

 

I added some intakes on the TOP, so the CPU can inhale cool air as well as the GPU exhaust.

IMG_20170823_192704.thumb.jpg.2627972b122dac7b5a8f85c44a4190dc.jpg

 

Lets test those thermals again, but with a +500mhz overerclock :D

IMG_20170824_155948.thumb.jpg.e19162a11cb452514271f51b04754f91.jpg

 

MUUUUUCH better. Its quieter too.

 

Not much left to do but add some case badges and my trademark googly eye.

Hm, that last image of task manager has my attention... is your display ok?

Nice max level console build, though I am surprised that you aren't going with a Dr.  Zaber, Ncase M1 or Dancase with this calibre of components 

Want to custom loop?  Ask me more if you are curious

Oh, that sucks.  I wondered why it changed - btw, a Node 202 can fit a 3.5mm hdd under the gpu

lol I don't even use a 2.5in SSD

 

And with an EVGA GTX 1080Ti FTW3, I'm going to be hard pressed to find any extra room lol

There's no excuse for intel not soldering their dies. AMD does it and sells their CPUs at a lower price and still turns a profit. Other people respond with comments like "the die is too small to solder". Okay what about intel clarkdale? The dies were smaller than the 6700K and those were soldered. 

 

Sorry just pissed delidding is needed at all. 

Preach, mah dude. Even my Haswell Pentium feels the burn with a flippity floppin 280mm AIO.

I once did the unthinkable, back many headphones ago...

I split an audio split, again

Fan was originally above the heatsink, I made it go below

uhh... but... so the heatsink goes through the fan now?  How does that work...

It has four heatpipes that wrap around the side of the fan

Well done! very nicely put together. I was considering a similar build myself a while back with the same case ....

I am pretty sure he cut out the fins on the underside so the Heat pipes wrap around the fan.

Yeah that's what I thought :)

The upward fins on the base were held in by mounting screws. I replaced that block of metal with four nuts.

 

This is what was removed
