im about to migrate into a new case

I only know for sure I will have a 360mm rad at the top with 3 120s exhausting

I can mount a 140 in the back
and in the front I can mount a single 200 or 2 140s

also should I use a fan controller

>>52298307
Are you the owner? If so you really overpaid on some of those parts. The board could be had for half that, the watercooling is two cheap shitty AIOs with a bigger rad added, the graphics card is over 2 years old and can be had for less than that, and I can't tell what case it is but it doesn't look like something that should cost that much.

There's nowhere to hide the cables unless you're using a long GPU and put them behind it like I'm doing, or if you for some reason use an ATX Psu you can hide them between it and the front wall of the case like in pic related.

I'm a silence fiend so my temps aren't the best, right now CPU/GPU idle around 40C, and max around 75/80.
That's with a Cryorig C7, no case fans, and the Reference cooler on the 980. If you use a better cooler and let the fans spin faster you can get perfectly reasonable temps. In fact, you can fit a 980ti hybrid + 120mm CPU AIO in the case at the same time, or dual 240mm rads if you go with a custom loop.

It's made of holes so it won't be quiet if your fans aren't, but by no means is silence unattainable. When I had a U9B-SE2 and a passively cooled 750ti my build was as close to silent as you can get at idle AND at load.

I'd say to roughly plan how you're going to build in it beforehand if you don't have much experience with mITX, and be prepared for some tight fits.
Be prepared to finish the build and realize something can be placed better for aesthetics/ function and feel the need to move it
Maybe get a bag to carry it in? I'm using the "Cabelas Trail-Camera Backpack"

>>52298443

>>52297973

>>52298421
The case is a 700D that I bought new shortly after they came out.

The board I paid a little over half price for, the 780 I picked up for $250 probably about a year ago.

Radiator, fittings, and reservoir aren't free but I didn't pay retail either.

I simply had to replace it with a quieter one. The sink gets hot to the touch but I hope it won't be a problem.

I liked mine a lot, but there's a newer version out, the U9S, or you could look at the Cryorig M9i/a.

It is, actually! It's a quite spendy if you want to buy instead of DIY though.
https://www.hexagonpc.com/product/ncase-m1-custom-power-supply-cables/

Personally if I decided to shorten my cables I'd just cut down and re-crimp the cables that came with my SX500LG.

Alternative: https://www.hexagonpc.com/product/silverstone-sfx-modular-psu-cables/

and then just get custom length/ short extensions for what you feel needs to be shorter. Though I think this kit only works with the SFX PSUs, not the SFX-L since it's so close to the back of the GPU as is.

Picture is Lavins' (owner of that shop) build using his Ncase Kit

That seems like a pretty weak score for two 980s. I'm the guy with 290s just above, if I overclocked a bit more I could probably match you (my 4790k is stock as well).

>>52299300
Still, my 290s are only overclocked by 13% (~+125MHz). I dunno, considering they're more 970 tier I expected a larger jump from 980s.

>>52299379
The other day someone posted their score with a 970 and it was only ~500pts away from my score with a 980.

I think their 970 was OC'd a little from the factory, but still.

Just kind of proves how small the difference is between the 970 & 980.

The ultimate in my-friend-has-no-money-for-his-PC build.

>>52303846

specs:

2x xeon X5345 @ 2.3ghz
6GB EEC Ram
random Intel server board (lulz)
expansion card for PCIe port (lulz)
cheap ATI video card
2x cheap 500GB sata drives (raid mirror)
greenwatts psu I got by RMA'ing one a customer threw out

all of these parts except the PCIe expansion card were free/leftovers from upgrades. even the case was free. expansion card was $20.

gave it to a friend to run his business books off of (pirated win7 running quickbooks). he locked it in a cabinet with no ventilation because "it was too loud" and it fucking overheated.

>>52303862

Turned out quite nice.

Love this one. It's like what my 11 year old self would think a computer from the future would look like while I was playing Doom.

Really want to get those nice braided cables but it seems like such a hassle and unecessary expense. Probably will get another 256gig SSD next.

We got an X99 asrock board but the satas were in the way of the 290X triX. Had to move it slots. we also ended up throwing an X1 in an X16 slot because of that LMAO.

My roommate upgraded his pc this month and I was considering buying the leftover parts to finally build myself a desktop. He said he'd sell the parts at 75% their going rate.

>i5@2500
>Amd 6960
>Asus Z97

I think he might of meant a 6970 rather than the 6960. And I'm not 100% on which mother board he's got, but I'm pretty sure it's the Z97. Think it's a good place to start for my first tower?

>>52306540
>i5-2500
>Z97

u wot.

You shouldn't buy a CPU and mobo that aren't compatible. Do your research on the parts again before you make a stupid purchase.

If it's an i5-xxxxK, get it.
If it's a Zxx that's compatible with the CPU, get it.

>>52306807
He didn't actually tell me which motherboard he had, but it's obviously compatible since he was using them in conjunction. I thought it was a Z97 because I saw a box in our garage, which is probably from our other roommate.

Sorry about the confusion. I'll look a bit deeper before purchasing.

>>52301354
Are they just extensions? Either way, does UPC just sell a full set or was it a custom order?

I just got an EVGA 980 ti FTW to replace my 950 SSC.

this is for 1440p gaming so I hope my i5-4590 doesnt cuck me.

ill say that 950 was good for what it was but really about the only thing you can play on 1440p with it are MOABS or whatever the fuck they are called.

I whipped up this build today for a co-worker. And yes I know the 24pin isn't routed behind the mobo. The tall case and 24pin position made it so I couldn't route it behind the motherboard. They'll order a 24pin extension and then it'll be prime.

It's a blower-style 970. They all perform the same, more or less. Only differences between the various designs are in noise and temps. The fan note on the ASUS Turbo is more 'grindy' sounding than the reference Nvidia 970, which produces more of a 'woosh'. Neither design is loud, but I prefer the sound of the reference fan.

Temps are similar even though the Turbo has dual-intake fans. I think this is because the reference card has integrated backplates. Avoid the PNY blower 970 with its flimsy plastic shroud. I bought that model first, and it vibrates like a motherfucker. It could be heard two rooms away.

Pictured is my reference 970 SLI machine.

The ones not marked are either sitting on the desk or boxes behind the monitors.

Why is there a PCI slot cover on top of your GT 720 ?

That's what is preventing the 720 from pressing into the fans of the 280x above it. Its a really tight fit.

It's a soundcard, Razer AC-1.

You can plug your monitor into it and see sounds

>>52323091
Are you fucking kidding me... see sounds...

>>52323134
Yeah I am.

My buddy has one with the Razer headset bundle. He loves it because BASSBASSBASSBASS.

Razer could sell retards dogshit filled headphones if it had a rumble motor in it.

>>52322578
>>52323091
Yep, AC-1. Speccy already told you exactly what it was. I don't even remember what retail was on it, I think around $100-150 but I paid around $20-30 for it a few years back. The software is decent but not perfect. Still well worth what I paid for the upgrade over the AC97 I was using at the time and the standard HD audio now.

I'm pretty sure there's matching headphones to go with it but I never bought them. After reading a around I picked up some ugly Asus headphones that were supposed to be great. While not terrible, they're certainly not great either.

>>52323196
Hahahahahahahaha... But seriously I found that funny.

I don't use razer stuff, and I don't think its quality or would I ever recommend it, but as a business they aren't bad, they are good with RMA's and when they make coupon mistakes they honored it. Better than most companies.

You dont work for a living either I'm sure.

>GPU cables are extensions cause that's the only way to make things work in an Ncase
Why is that?

>good guy to work with honestly.
I can attest to this. I e-mailed them after you mentioned UPC and the guy responded within like 5 minutes.

Huh, removing the sticker from the stock heatsink makes it looks just a little less shit. Just a little.

Maybe because of the layout of the plugs on the PSU?

Looking at it I don't understand why it's a problem though...

>>52323611
not op, but it's probably a Fury X, 16gb ram and a FX chip, so probably a 8350

I actually did it well before Linus, in fact I think I even moved back to single socket before that video came out. I don't remember seeing many other dual socket builds before I did mine.

Using a website to build a PC because I'll cry if I fuck anything up. A bit sad that the NZXT H440 case doesn't allow for H100 cooler, guess I'll have to stick with the H80 (only care about it for aesthetic reasons) or is that just this sites configurator being a faggot.
