i´ve gotten this Case and I think its great. My 4080 fits perfectly ecept for the power connector. but i just moved it to the site and it fits exactly. Dust is a bit of a problem but if you clean you pc every few weeks it should be fine.

Dual 280mm rads in series for cpu and gpu in line with fans on exhaust, that’s what it needs. Than the psu at the top - cut the top plate to give it intake fan of PCU the breathing room with exact to the side

Great video! was stoked to see it as I have this case/TUF 4090/Lian Li SP 850 waiting for me at my house when i finish this job in a few weeks..... but now I have no idea what to do about the PSU. I don't understand why it isn't compatible and I guess I will have to return it. Is the Cooler Master v850 sfx compatible? Looking to replace my Corsair SF750.

@LastSecBloomer Жыл бұрын

Placing the PSU on the bottom and horizontally like in standard cases, with the rest of the setup on top of it, would have made the case lower. Or keep the same height and use the space on top for storage or exhaust. As it is, it's a bit inefficient use of space...

@Fincher123 Жыл бұрын

For me this needs Full Air Cooler like Noctua D15S or the big one without Fan. OR Custom Water Cooling with extern Radiator =P

@sebastianwedemann3718 Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the video! I think I am always open for new design ideas. But this one just does not catch me. There is no way to get control of the cables and seeing the back of the radiator is not that sexy... 🤷‍♂

@Scuba_Bro Жыл бұрын

I wonder if this makes it more of a dust magnet being so open? I guess a regular case just traps and holds dust and maybe this might be easier to clean periodically 🤔

@expertnewbie Жыл бұрын

The components will get a thin layer of dust on everything surface facing upwards, similar to how a desk gets dusty over time. Anything more than that will get blown away by the fans. It won't build up like how it tends to in a standard case. The fans also spin slower on account of having less heat to handle, but this is offset by not having any filters to trap dust. Overall, it will be more dusty than an enclosed case, but not significantly more so.

It should have been made as a "mATX" but able to support both atx and itx motherboards with some expected limitations that comes with each. The case's slogan can be "ONE MODEL THAT SUPPORTS THEM ALL".

That's not true I have a XTIA L with a 7900XTX. There is far less dust with this vs a closed case. Also it sits under by 65" TV stand

@SpreadTheLoveNotSTDs Жыл бұрын

Yeah but closed cases have that issue too, especially with negative pressure

@rolliseventeen 11 ай бұрын

You never had a open one, right? The dust will be the same, always. Forget about all discussions. The benefit of a open case is you can clean it in minutes and you don’t need that armada of case fans. Downside is you see the dust maybe better. I will never go back to a case. After all I still test to much and want direct plug drives to the board.

You can easily buy a blower for removing dust. The temps of the hardware should be great with this!

@sebinasia Жыл бұрын

I wonder if the noise levels would be more or less than an enclosure?

@MarigoldAW 11 ай бұрын

Audibly more noise since no pannels do dampen the sound of PSU fan, CPU fan cooler, and GPU fans especially when gaming. However temps run much cooler. I have an open air case and rarely go over 55c when playing Destiny 2 on High settings

@sebinasia 11 ай бұрын

@@MarigoldAW Thanks for your reply - I bought one of these since posting that question and with noctua fans cooling my CPU and GPU it is inaudible until it gets put under load. And it looks absolutely awesome!
