Solid.

[KAC]

Thanks

[Silent-Runner]

not enough case fans, i'm sure you could fit another 10 in there, but the lighting is nice.

[KAC]

Lian li has standard option to include 10 fans.

Walk me through them, which are intake and which are exhaust.

[logical]

Colors are ugly, all intake.

[Mangler]

3 intake, 7 exhaust is what kac is running.

[acroig]

Thanks

[Evileh]

Ignore jay hes been really cranky lately like hes on his period. I love it. I want to do something like that i just have to convert my main hard drives to ssds and then ill be ok

[Nunz]

Fans make sense since the case is open.

[Hapatingjaky]

Gays. Apparently the Lian Li cables are toast. So will install the regular cables tomorrow. Also hands down the worst case to build in due to such limited space in the back for cables. Was a nightmare. Should’ve gone with XL.

The XL's cable management ain't any better....

[shrike126]

Okay, I finally got around to doing some cable management you guys were crying about.









I don't know what to do about the keyboard and mouse cables though. Those might just always be a problem.

You could bundle em together in some type of sleeve's/tube's, just so it's more slick. Or you could cut open a little drop hole that is covered with some type of cover.

Looks good MouSe-2005.

Beware the video card sag police on this forum.

Hey thanks!


In regards to the sag, it bugs the crap out of me too! I'm trying to figure out the best way to address it...without using a Funko in my case.

JayzTwoCents proposed a solution using your chassis' PCI-E slot dummy brackets and stacking them like shims. Maybe something you might want to try:

I remember seeing that. I do have a metric ton of them from various builds so it would be easily done.

I'm tempted to punch a hole in the middle of the desk and go that route. It's a relatively cheap Ikea tabletop (Linnmon or whatever that I've had around for a few years), so no risk of ruining the desk is low at least.

Hole is cleanest way if you don't care about the desktop that much. Just be sure to put a grommet in so you don't wear the cables.

Oh good call on using a grommet. That and I need to figure out a circle bit to use that won't chew up the surface too badly.

A hole saw is the best thing to use, and then you'll be able to use a standard size grommet too. I just used a standard "big" drill bit on my desk to mount my monitor arm though, and didn't have any issues. My desk is a veneer on top of either pressboard or plywood.

Tape the area your cutting out and score the cut first to help prevent any tearing or roughness when you do the drilling/sawing.

I got a hole in my desk with a grommet, but it ain't for cables.

He could take a piece of string and tie it to the PCIe power connector and place a lego Indiana Jones dangling from it to hold the card straight..

This weekend I will install this humble hardware in my humble current rig to create a new humble computer (with all the parts already replaced last year). I will post humble pictures of this humble moment after I complete the installation.




Core i9 12900K

ROG AIO compatible with socket 1700

Congrats! Post benchmarks and overclocks.

Will for sure, I'm really excited, I hope it can run Crysis.

my current rig, yields these results:

I forgot to upload these, this is my daughter's new laptop for "school"







I'm surprised about it's performance. It's almost as fast as my old Ci9 9900K+Radeon VII

I had the PC on a table. Decided against it. The C1 was reflecting in the side panel. Very distracting. I'm also used to having it near the floor. It's sitting on two pieces of black granite from my old house.

The cables from the computer are bundled together with some slack. That allows me to raise and lower the desk as needed.

Still need to hang the 5 pieces of sound absorption panels sitting next to the closet. Not sure where the best spots for them are quite yet.

[lmchv]

Nice!, I would love to have a dedicated space for my equipment (computers, TVs, sound), maybe when my kids leave the nest...

I completed the upgrade, I reused everything but the mainboard, processor, memory and AIO.

The main actors:




Initial testing:




Final result:




Since I have the computer on my left, I have inverted the case, works fine.

It posted on the first try, however, when I enabled XMP it just started failing. Had to update to the latest bios and now it's working fine. Another thing to notice is that a lot of components were not recognized by Windows, had to use the utility that came with the MB.

I will format it this weekend for a clean start!

[lmchv]

I have so many cables coming out of the AIO I can't find a way of concealing them

I will change the orientation of the video card power cables, but thats it, dont know how to improve the cable management. This case is huge, and the cables are not long enough

[Megaman]

You could try wrap them around the board or screws etc..

[logical]

Yeah great parts but it looks messy as hell

[lmchv]

Will try to do that, have a lot of velcro

[AdamK47]

Attached a keyboard tray to the bottom of the desk to give a little more distance from the C1. My eyeballs are 3' 8" From the screen while I'm seated.
