thats handy
wonder if theres something else to prevent vinyl
from sticking to asus label
little dab of grease or something maybe?
though guess it might dry out but not sure if it dries
will that part of vinyl "blow"
guess your mate will know though

With a bit of heat it should be fine, just need something that's less Tacky than the asus label and it shouldn't pull the label off. Guess i'll find out :cry:
 
Quick drop of photos, board, fans and memory debut right here. Temporary 12700K in there while i wait for the replacement 13700K to arrive. Long story short i received a dud 13700K.

Kingston our new collab has sent us a set of DDR5 6400mhz 64gb CL32 2 dimm kit! Can't wait to test it properly when the new cpu arrives, lovely set of SK Hynix set so should be a monster clocker too.


Bitspower is busy with Computex right now but we're in the middle of confirming watercooling components for this build :D


And yes no RGB with this build, just pure class!













looks good mate. Thanks for the pics
 
Chonky heatsink, love seeing air coolers being used.

Boo AIO, yay HSF and hard-line loops

Not the largest heatsink in the world as it only supports 92mm fans BUT it's more than enough to keep a 12700K cool under full load while running R23 bench at around 72c. I was expecting far worse tbf :cry:

Still undecided whether i will hardline or soft tube this build.

Really? Looks bigger, maybe my brain exaggerates

1 vote for hard-line here! Would mirror the straight lines of the case

Haha think you underestimate how small the build actually is :cry:

Yeah that was the plan too, to mirror the case design but then i think some soft tubing would actually give it some contrast between the straight and wonky.
 
I would definitely use chromed or stainless steel tubing for the CPU block, vertical runs down to whatever to match the tubular frame. Connections to pump/res and radiator can be tucked away at the bottom with some EDPM.

But that's just me ;)

I thought about this, i know someone else did similar on here with their build and it looked nice doing it this way.
 
That's a camera :cry:
Other than that I have no idea lol

Bought myself a fancy camera to take photos
Of my stepsons wedding
It's sat on a shelf since :cry:
Had no clue how to use the ####### thing
Surprised the photos actually came out fine tbh

On a totally random subject lol
Have you seen new phanteks fittings?
Quick release/connect like pushfit plumbing fittings
But you can use both 16mm hard or 16mm soft tubing
No more needing separate fittings for soft tube and hard tube

It's not the best video and photography camera, however for mirrorless and at the price point i got it for brand new i cannot complain lol. Did some test footage and some standard shots and dang its good! just need a decent lens to go with it.

If you had your camera set to auto and point and shoot then you can't go wrong really lol


I haven't, gonna google them now! That sounds absolutely amazing! I was wondering when someone would actually come up with something like this. You got a link for them?

Edit: Ah i think i found it, the EZ Fit stuff?

Yeah that's it ez fit
Now it's definitely not the first "pushfit" style fitting
For hard tube at least
@Vidar Tried some don't remember who made those
But the ability to take both hard tube and soft
Seems to be new
The ones vidar tried he had problems with
Trying to remove hard tube in situ was one I think
Will be interested to see first reviews of these
From independent builders in an actual loop
Particularly whether you can remove hard tube
Without having to cut it
In some situations yes if there's room to move one component
Might not be a problem
But if both ends are immovable wonder how easy it is
Not sure I really explained that very well
But hopefully you understand the is it difficult to remove
