    just ordered the Dynamic today along with 3 extra Thermaltake Riing Plus 12 LED RGB and 2x NOCTUA NF-R8 REDUX-1800 PWM - 80MM. Gonna mod the case a little for the 80mm in the back.

    So the thermaltake floe riing rgb 360 tt premium edition will be set as side intake. The 3x Thermaltake Riing Plus 12 will be bottom intake and 2x thermaltake riing 14 will be top exhaust and the 2x Noctua will beck exhaust. That should give plenty of fresh air for the GPU.

    Really looking forward to building in that case

    I know that well, after spending some time a on a 34 inch monitor the normal 24/27 inch 16:9 looks like a 19 inch 4:3 monitor.

    Wow... This thread is still alive... And apparently, my Account is now a decade old too! xD

    I guess it's time to post some update on my PC's I guess?:

    Workstation:

    Still my fully water cooled X99 PC from back in 2015 Running GTX 980s in SLI.
    Some new peripheries like a G903, G810 and three HP Z32 4K Monitors replacing my old DELL U3014s.

    Gaming/Home Theatre PC :

    My even older X79 PC but at least with a still potent GTX 1080 TI FE I got when GPUs were still affordable... Playing in 4K on High-Ultra settings!
    Newest addition would be a SONY KD-77A1 TV replacing my SONY KD-75S9005B - Still lacking my beloved DIY Ambilight functionality ;(
    Though new LED-Strip Spools already at hand... Just need some wires to redo it again.

    Also still using a by now probably 12+ year old Desktop image on pretty much any device with a screen xD

    This is probably how it'll stay until Intel's next gen (plan to upgrade in a year or so, picked up some intermediate parts on the cheap last year to replace my aging i7 920).

    Intel Core i7 4820K@4.2GHz - Gigabyte GA-X79-UP4 - 16GB (2x8GB) - EVGA GTX1070 SC - Samsung 850 EVO 250GB - Crucial MX100 512GB - 2xWD VelociRaptor RAID0

    Got rid of the original single loop and went for air cooling since I'm not drastically overclocking anymore. Still impressed that the Gigabyte X58A-UD3R & i7 920 stayed at over 50% OC for almost a decade.

    1x AOC i2460Px & 2x HP E241i (3x16:10@6040x1200) - Lenovo Explorer WMR Headset - Logitech X56 Rhino HOTAS (o7 CMDRs) - SoundBlaster Z & Logitech Z906 Surround

    Build in progress

    So i started building my new build yesterday and im still playing around with it. Im waiting for the Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 16GB 2x8GB DDR4 3200MHz and i can't for the love of god get the waterblock to sync with the rest of the system. All the other RGB sync's fine, but the waterblock just wont light up, so now i have to test it with the normal control box and see if its broken or not.

    I allso need to install the lian li strimer rgb 8 pin cable. I really love the look of the 24 pin cable, so i hope the 8 pin cable looks just as good.

    Oh that's *nice.* Just the right amount of unicorn vomit!

    Also, that chip's nice. Not the best I've seen in the wild, but it's close. (Best I've seen did 5.2 at 1.3v.. Yeah)


    Edit: Only using 1 of the 8 pins for the MOBO? Might look better if you had both plugged in (Even if you won't use all the power)

    Looks cool but as a bit of a minimalist (i have all my lights off even on my 2080ti) are they not distracting during a gaming session?

    Nothing i can do about it. The sockets doesn't line up 100% with the case and the GPU is a little heavy in the end, but it is nothing i worry about and i have order a Backplate for the card

    Which backplate are you getting? A minimalist one, or another thing to make unicorn vomit coloured?

    A bit disappointed, considering everything else in your case lights up
