I've done a bit of a rebuild and into a Silverstone Fara R1. I've moved on my Ryzen setup and now have an i7 10700k in there

The Fara R1 is a lot better than I expected, quite compact and the additional airflow from the upwards blowing fan under the 2080ti is proving to be a nice little addition.

I was looking at this until I saw GamerNexus review on it....! How is the cooling on it? I still want one or the TT S100 snow, but nobody has any stock!

I was looking at this until I saw GamerNexus review on it....! How is the cooling on it? I still want one or the TT S100 snow, but nobody has any stock!

So it's interesting as I watched the review as well, did seem like it would be quite restrictive and also scored down on the price point as you'd have to buy x amount of fans also.

My spec as you'll see in the sig is an i7 10700k which I've got clocked at 5Ghz currently with a 2080ti founders.

My setup has 2xCorsair LL RGB fans at the front with 1xNoctua NF-P12 REDUX below them all as intake, this is then complimented by an upward facing LL RGB fan onto the 2080ti where I have that clocked with 88c limits and it hits a max of 83c on this setup so sitting nicely at a 2010 boost constantly now, it wasn't in previous cases I had before.

The 10700k does run fairly hot in general terms from all the reviews I've seen but with the AIO on top with the fans being used as exhaust over the rad (2xNoctua NF-P12 REDUX) it's topping out at 75c on load at 99% usage. One LL RGB as a rear exhaust also to add to the look in the end.

All in all everything runs nice and silent/quiet during typical use and only ramping up during gaming but never to a crazy volume to keep things cool. I think if you utilise the fan placement well then the case performs just as well as others I've used recently, I'm actually surprised at how well it cools despite the mixed reviews I've seen.

Just about finished Project "Mouse's Ear".

Absolute PITA, but I've squeezed a full loop into a Jonsbo W2. I opted for soft tubing because I'm not a complete sadist.
Couple of finishing touches (adaptor for CPU lighting), but 98% there.

Where did you manage to find a W2 case? I have the silver version but wanting the black version, because I have upgraded my monitor now and it doesn't match anymore

Hi, I've had it for the past five years, after we put all our media bits into IKEA Besta units - it was the only ATX case I could find that fit.
Bought it from that place that specialises in Low Noise rigs, since at the time they were the only UK based seller of Jonsbo cases. I had the choice of either colour, but I had mainly black components.

I'm actually looking to get a different case in the near future (Meshify S2 or O11D - cliché, but now dual-chamber has become more common, my options are far wider) so keep an eye out on the Member's Market (or I can send you a trust when I list it).

Yeah cool, I'll buy it off you when you get another case, because theres no atx cases as small as the W2 case on the market, Its the perfect size case for me, as it fits all my hardware inside without stacks of unnecessary room left over and I love the minimal look of the case.

Update to my M1 build. 5700 XT Nitro+ and Jonsbo CR-1400 added.

Need to to a better job with the cables. But I should have an NR200P coming soon to test out, so I didn't put much effort in to making them neat this time. Tempted to order a CableMod SFF cable kit once I've decided which case I'm keeping.

Hello, I should have an Akasa Turing case coming this week, anyone want to see it, or should I put in the small form factor area?

 

[Wrightyuk]

Let's see it

 

[Euphoria]

Turing is an awesome case, here is mine and it runs at such low temps its unreal. The thing popping up is the wifi / bluetooth aerial required for my keyboard/ mouse.

Did you also buy a heatsink for the hdd as they get real hot in this case

 

[Wrightyuk]

Very nice

Unfortunately its stuck with the couriers! Will post some pics when it arrives.

Are you using SATA or a NVM drive?

Damn! What a monitor. I can't even imagine what it's like sitting in front of it. Look at the size of the taskbar. It's longer than most runways.

When I first saw this for the first second, I thought this person has a massive graphics card or a very tiny case.

Here's my fairly recent Lian Li Dynamic xl custom watercooled build.

NVM with a heatsink, i also purchased some antenna so my bluetooth and wifi work (as i use one set of mice and keyboard for 3 computers via bluetooth). temps atm in the machine are awesome and it is silent. The good thing is when you look at reviews etc the case looks massive and when it arrives in a tiny box you ask yourself if thats it. main issue i have my 3 year old lost a screw

Thanks - quite enjoyed building it tbh.

Got it, I have the antenna kit coming and the unit is still stuck with Parcel force!

My plan for temps might involve a slow speed USB fan sitting on the top depending on what the drives report, I plan both NVM and SATA

I'd love one of them but new born baby not got time or money

Thats a sexy build that. That velocity block is clean but that price though!
