Hoping 7 stand offs are capable of holding an ATX mobo :D (I had to drill out 2 of the stand offs as the screws were stuck when I was trying to get my old motherboard out :P)

Looking at my signature are we now? Well too bad there's nothing here...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What? As I said, there seriously is nothing here :)

I have a Noctua NH-D15 installed on my Micro ATX mobo and I only have 3 screws holding in my mobo

 

I have an Anet A8 as my project printer and a i3 MK3 for when I want things to work. 

 

I extrude my own filament and haven't saved a penny yet.

I put a case fan on the outside of the case because my cooler is too big.

I have an Anet A8 as my project printer and a i3 MK3 for when I want things to work.

zipties on fan holes, had no screws

You pretty much have to ziptie a case fan onto a GPU heatsink if you feel like replacing the fans... I plan on putting nf-f12's on a windforce cooler eventually... Someday.

I sort of did that but with hard drives. I also had 6 fans running off one header (don't recommend it almost never worked they just looped)

Mounting my NH-D15 on a LGA 775 Micro ATX board, in a incompatible case, with a litteral millimeter of clearance for the Ace PSU in it and the sidepanel. Not that ghetto, but not very recommended.

Theory is when you know everything but nothing works. Practice is when everything works but you dont know why. In this computer, theory and practice are combined: Nothing works and i dont know why.

 

Atleast i can manage Some things, like my current OC personal best.

I did that with my NH-D15 but the fans push against the sidepanel making it hard to put on

My Ghetto setup because of my Noctua NH-D15.

 

Good Ole fan on outside of the case.

Trusty electrical tape is the only thing keeping my gpu from shorting out.

20160519_073148.jpg

 

Cooler ONLY takes up 90% of my Micro ATX Mobo

20160519_073126.jpg

 

Noctua said that the cooler didn't give the PCIE x16 slot clearance. I have no idea what they are talking about it looks perfect to me!

Sorry I took so long to get pictures :P
