boah

i didnt even get pinged i just strolled through build showcase which i barely ever do

looks very cool

[hot portal]

Wow 5090 as well this is crazy

[restive sable]

The plastic piece shattered lmao

I think my gpu is too big

There was 0 way to get it in without bending the plastic and that shit popped

I can order a replacement but I dont think it fits

Just too big

[regal snow]

Warranty maybe?

[restive sable]

i mean

i broke it

lol

[regal snow]

Usually companies are generous as long as you have proof of purchase

[restive sable]

i sent in a question asking if i can buy just the plastic piece since i accidentally broke it, maybe they will say

[regal snow]

Yeah it depends on what you want, they will more than likely be happy to warranty it. Otherwise finding those pieces is tough and they might try to charge you a ton despite costing them like $1 to make them

[restive sable]

honestly not even sure it fits so

[cold warren]

Yooooo congrats on the build

🔥🔥🔥🔥

@restive sable

[restive sable]

@cold warren let me know how ur bottom fan installation goes lol

i could NOT get that shit to fit

[regal snow]

Take the gpu out before installing the fans, I presume you must have done so but if not its recommended and with give your screw driver the clearance it needs.

[restive sable]

gpu was the very last thing i installed

problem is getting it into the vgpu mount with the pump and plastic guide

its an incredibly tight fit

[outer mesa]

What plastic did you break ?

[cold warren]

Yoooo your making me nervous

Should I get smaller fans?

[cold warren]

This is what I am planning on buying https://a.co/d/2WAod6V

@restive sable

[restive sable]

fans have nothing to do with it

[restive sable]

the plastic piece that goes above the bottom fans to direct airflow from side intake into gpu

[restive sable]

ur forced to use 140mms on the bottom

[cold warren]

🫩

[restive sable]

the only thing that affects how it fits is gpu width + pump size

and my gpu is as fat as an astral

[cold warren]

Dang

[restive sable]

i think its possible i just wasnt careful enough

[cold warren]

I hope my card fits properly

[cold warren]

So will these fans not work?

[restive sable]

not on the bottom

[cold warren]

https://a.co/d/hgVVUsq

[restive sable]

those will work

[cold warren]

Alright imma order 3 packs of this

[restive sable]

if i had to go back and change something i would have gotten wireless fans

managing 22 fan cables was fucked

beyond belief

[cold warren]

😭

[restive sable]

if ur not doing rgb fans it will be a lot easier

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lj51hrHJnnM&t

great video btw

[cold warren]

Yeah I’m doing no rgb

The only rgb I have is my graphics card

[cold warren]

Bet thanks

[cold warren]

Does the AIO have to be 140mm as well?

[restive sable]

no

it will look better though

u will have a lot of empty space with 120s

Maximum Amount: 11

Top: 3 x 120 / 3 x 140 mm

Right: 3 x 120 / 3 x 140 mm

Bottom: 3 x 140 mm

Rear: 2 x 120 / 2 x 140 mm (Thickness Up to 30 mm)

[cold warren]

Ok bet the AIO I was thinking of getting is 360MM

[restive sable]

yeah it will fit u will just have big gaps on the top/bottom of wherever u put it

[cold warren]

Ok

So 140mm is the optimal size for it to look good?

[restive sable]

yeah 420mm

heres how it looks with a 360mm top mount

not bad by any means just a little small

[cold warren]

Yeah ngl I hate how the gap looks

[restive sable]

as opposed to mine

[cold warren]
