Thermaltake TT Gaming Riser Cable 200mm PCI-E 3.0 X16

is the one you want.

This riser cable should work with the new Coolermaster H500p?

Reality|Bites · 4 Oct 2017 at 17:42

I don't know, All I know is TT and review sites recommended that you use the TT riser cable for compatibility.

What i ordered was one of these - http://www.thermaltake.com/Chassis/...T_Premium_PCI_E_3_0_Extender_300mm/Design.htm

Reality|Bites · 4 Oct 2017 at 18:29

looks about right, but I'm not paying that for a cable lol

atomic7431 · 4 Oct 2017 at 18:48

I coughed i must admit.

@atomic7431....will you be posting the pics and build log here in my thread or creating a new one...??...if you do create a new one please post a link here in my thread would like to check it out....and by the way guys who is the 'scam' shop in question and why are you being vague regarding it's name....!!!

Reality|Bites · 5 Oct 2017 at 09:32

Grrr the case isn't due till the 17th November.

I'm going for the RGB one at £200 as I can use the 3 140mm fans on my top rad then just buy 3 or 6 120mm fans for the front 360 rad.

The case has arrived, just waiting for other bits to come. I will create a new thread and put link in here.
As i say i wont have my fans light up how i want yet as not got enough pennies for the halo rgbs as well. Want to keep my Vardars for my rads you see.

mrsim · 6 Oct 2017 at 00:20

thanks for the replies guys...still didn't get the other question answered regarding the 'scam shop' though...LOL

Reality|Bites · 6 Oct 2017 at 00:40

change m to n......they don't have stock anymore though if they ever did. 17th November is their next due date.

Glanza · 6 Oct 2017 at 10:09

Shame the stock levels seem to be allover the place between vendors, making the new Coolermaster C700P look more appealing even with it being closer to £100 more expensive.

Reality|Bites · 6 Oct 2017 at 20:05

THe one thing that has me worried about this case is the fact you have to use force to pull off the front and top panel to build in it.
For the price they're asking you would think they would be on slide rails or something.
What happens if you pull it off and snap something?

Cods-Nostril · 6 Oct 2017 at 21:56

Yeah must admit that raised a eyebrow with me the other day.
Must have had good testing but still seems a bit of a suspect method.

hmmm it seems you can only fit a 36-45mm(at a push) thick rad up top....

I think i'll wait for other people to try and fit a 60mm rad up top before I buy lol

You can fit a 60mm at the top with a 60mm at the front, there's a build video on youtube where he uses TT 60mm rads.

Reality|Bites · 9 Oct 2017 at 10:37

Maybe the guy in the review put the fans under the bracket if he can't fit anything bigger than 40mm in then?

Glanza · 9 Oct 2017 at 10:50

Video I saw fans are mounted above the radiator in the void at the top, not directly to the rad.

Reality|Bites · 9 Oct 2017 at 10:58

Yeah just watched that one, The white build.
I was meaning the review I linked to, he must have put the fans under the bracket directly onto the rad?

With the side panels having an open gap in them, what happens if a fly or bug gets in there?

atomic7431 · 9 Oct 2017 at 16:38

I will upload my build over the next few days and i have 2 360 rads, 1 in top 1 in front which are 60mm.
The shop in question as i stated earlier in the thread did have stock as mine is sat here all up and running now.

Not had chance yet as i was at the frontier expo in london on saturday
