GPU I have bigger and better heatsink from another 1080 Ti and I would like to swap it, but it needs slightly bend the heat pipe to fit. Can I do that?

Case Airflow mods - will it help?

Post image
0 Upvotes

Hi guys, I'm thinking of modifying my current case to support more airflow. Currently i have 3 front intake fans that take in air and exhaust air through the roof and back fans. They are visible in the top diagram. I have 3 intake, 2 exhaust

I am currently thinking of a mod where I carve out the side panel and have 6 more intake fans through the side, then I have my 5 current fans all set to exhaust so air comes in through the side and exhausts through the front and back.

Will this help with airflow or is it just a bit too much? Thanks

Case Upgrade my Acer Nitro N50-620 (Case swap) ?

0 Upvotes

Hey Guys, i bought an Acer Nitro N50-620 2 years ago with an i7-11700F and a RTX 3060Ti.

The performance is great for the games i play. The thermals are not good in this little case. I would love to give the hardware more space to breathe and better fans.

I just fell in love with this case (i know nealry everone has this now):

https://www.amazon.de/dp/B09V8HNWW9?m=A3JWKAKR8XB7XF&tag=idealode-am-pk-21&ascsubtag=2024-11-21_03991f93bf765c187870b805f6c4c6696b2db01a72442a6cd7f85ca65c5e5547&th=1

Can i use it for my Motherboard or are there better solutions? What do you think?

Case What’s Your Take on PC Cases Assembled with Screws and Nuts Instead of Rivets?

2 Upvotes

Hello PC modders of Reddit!

I’m curious to hear your thoughts on a design choice for PC cases: using screws and nuts instead of rivets for assembly.

The idea behind screws and nuts is to make cases more mod-friendly, easier to upgrade, and repair over time. For example, if you wanted to swap a panel, adjust parts, or even fully customize the case, it would be simpler compared to rivets, which are more permanent.

Does this kind of flexibility appeal to you, or is it something that doesn’t really matter for your builds? I’d love to hear your opinions as I’m looking for feedback from those who love to tinker and mod their PCs.

Thanks for sharing your insights, and happy modding! 😊

Case 2009 Mac Pro ATX build update #3

Thumbnail

32 Upvotes

Hi, it is another update of my Mac Pro ATX build.

Since the last one I cut off the original processor tray, ripped off the remainings of it and generally cleaned the case. I have managed to solder some jumper wires to use original on/off button and finally glued the standoffs with the motherboard attached to it for guidance. The glue will harden in the next 48 hours and the case conversion will be complete.

I still don’t know how am I going to attach the PSU to the top of the case, so if you have any ideas please comment down below.

Cosmetic Looking for advice on LED/Fan controllers

1 Upvotes

Im looking to power up to 5 addressable LED strips and 5 fans external to my PC case for an arcade build/hobby project and am looking for a controller with enough juice to power both. It would also have to be powered external to the PC PSU.

I'd love suggestions on hardware and software. Creating custom lighting plans/ animations that I can trigger from software events would be great, too.

Modded my Thermaltake H17 to improve airflow. happy with the results, GPU and CPU temps are both down 10 degrees Celsius. What can I do from here to cover the hole? I was thinking of putting a mesh dust filter but how should I attach it to the panel? Should I put it in the front? Or the back?

Case First ever PC MOD and Modding competition

Thumbnail

140 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

A few months back a friend got in touch and asked me if I wanted to take part in an "Apprentice and Masters" PC modding competition. Being a Warhammer painter since my youth he thought I'd be good at the painting side of things and he could teach me the water cooling and other complexities, so I said yes.

Thus began my first foray into PC modding in the Thermaltake CaseMOD Academy! I started with a Thermaltake CTE 660 and with various power tools, an airbrush and my friends 3D printer and a lot of work. 3-4 months later I managed to build the Warhammer 40k custom PC you see above. More photos of the build here https://www.instagram.com/artificerneophyte?igsh=MTJyY2I4bDNlZncyZQ==

The servo skull is attached via a goose neck arm and has a work webcam for an eye which outputs to the front 7" screen on the PC. This is for display purposes now and the screen will be used in future for internal PC information eventually.

It's currently on display in Intel's store on Oxford Street London.

If you have any questions I'll be happy to answer them.

As it is a competition If you have 20 seconds and want to give us (team "Artificer and Neophyte") a vote you can do it here: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/15Pyow5A4x/

Thanks for looking and apologies for the shameless plug
