i see you went for an O11? How’s the cooling? also how much did you have to pay for the fans

@robust grotto also, which aio is that?
thanks

[robust grotto]

The cooling is wonderful, sits idle at 29c and peaks at 38c in most games

The fans costed me 400$ Canadian

And the aio is the phanteks 240mm

[modern summit]

thanks a lot @robust grotto
was contemplating to get an O11 case and i appreciate you filling me in on your experience.

[modern summit]

oh i see i see

sucks that uni fans are super expensive

[robust grotto]

Breakdown of the case, very asthetic, amazing experience to build in like super easy, it tells you where everything is, how to install things and more, is customizable, and has good cooling

[modern summit]

is that an O11 mini? or the regular one

[robust grotto]

Build quality is also awesome it's a heavy one

O11 in general

[modern summit]

oh okay couldn’t tell

[robust grotto]

The regular ones the same as the mini just bigger by slightly

[modern summit]

oh alright

thanks again

[robust grotto]

Basically the only difference between the mini and regular is one fan extra in height

[modern summit]

oh i see

[robust grotto]

Again though super easy and beginner friendly, this was my first build with zero prior experience with computer building

[modern summit]

also why’d you mount the aio like that, but not facing the top?

[modern summit]

that’s perfect lol i’ve got no experience as well.

[robust grotto]

Confused by your question

You mean in the back of the case the radiator?

[modern summit]

hold on lemme get an example

https://youtu.be/KU6vIDpNaxw

see how the aio is on top

[robust grotto]

Yes, the reason why is because having it in the top doesn't give it any preformance boost

It cools just as well

[modern summit]

was wondering why you out case fans there instead

ohh

[robust grotto]

And the cutout in the back is a designated aio spot

Meaning the aio is meant to go there

[modern summit]

thought that was the best place to insert it

ah i see i see

[robust grotto]

Typically it is in builds with no fans in the back of the case

[modern summit]

okay got it

[robust grotto]

Most have the fans at the front of the case, as this one has them on the bottom instead, it also has back Fan cutouts too

The fans would also stick out from the top more and would look janky

[modern summit]

ohhhhhhhhh

i’m visualizing it now

okay that’s understandable

this is too overkill isn’t it https://youtu.be/QCMoD3teOno
