** GIBBO's BLACK FRIDAY DEALS ARE NOW LIVE!! **
- Thread starter Gibbo
- Start date
As I said on previous page we over-sold, we will honour orders but of course there is a delay whilst more parts arrive.
Only 80 bundles were allocated, as its a loss leader, we sold 150 and everyone who ordered will get one.
I am not sure if a bundle is modifiable but call us and ask to speak with Sam the sales manager because if anyone can sort this he can, whoever answer say Gibbo gave the contact details.

Anyone got any tips for a aio noob?
I want to put mine together later on, but avoiding any gotchas if I can!

What case do you have?
Soldato
Nice case, perfectly set up for a 240 AIO. I usually try different combinations to see what configuration gives the best results (temperatures can vary greatly depending on the case / configuration). I'd probably start trying the fans mounted at the top of the case pushing fresh air over the radiator, which can then be exhausted straight out the back.

Gibbo any Black Friday laptop deals ?
Soldato
Wasn't sure how to do that, so this is the way I currently have it setup:
That looks alright? tbh I didn't even bother swapping out the default thermal paste yet, I just used the one it came with. May swap it later as I have some AS5, it came with some thermal grizzly stuff too.
Yes I do realise that the fan cables are in a bad place too!
Soldato
Wow that MSI 1070 has shot up in price
Soldato
they are probably oem mate and bought in bulk, that stuff tends to come with minimal packaging and its an ocuk only kit so probably not worth while making fancy packaging

What he suggested is have the fans blowing air in from outside. Eg Top of Case/fans blowing in/radiator. The combo you have would mean hot air coming straight off the GPU added to hot air circulating the case would go straight through the radiator and also be fighting with the rear case fan. Wherever possible pushing cool air from outside over the radiator 99% of time is the best solution.

Might have to turn mine around, temps were good however. I had mine in the other orientation... pic incoming!Ignore how I was halfway through and the potato quality, had my finger over the lens doh
Need a new PSU and some cable extensions

Hyburnate did yours come with the longer radiator screws?
Mine didn't seem to come with any of them.

Yes mate, they go straight through the fans and then go ever so slightly into the rad. I'm sure Gibbo or one of the other guys will sort you out, I'm shocked I managed to fit it all in to the 650D might see if push pull is possible...
