Just checking, where it says Please note: these are V2 panels, and are fully backward compatible with the V1 chassis. However, the V2 top panel is not compatible with the V1 front panel. So this just means that I have to swap both the front and the top if I swap panels on my v1 chassis yeah?

So I reseated the cooler on my GTX780 eVGA FTW edition and got 90 degrees on furmark. Still it's clearly SLIGHTLY cooler and not throttling as bad as when it was hitting 94. I might just try some slim fans in the bottom to feed air or ducting it and leave it at that. It's not like I'll be using...

I wasn't sure on the thickness of the strips or the grill. I'm sneakily on the forums while at work so I can't just check my bits. Thanks Necere

Good point on the fan grille. Should I go FAN>BRACKET>GRILL>FILTER or FAN>GRILL>BRACKET>FILTER? My plan was to just glue an unfolded paperclip over the face to give the filter support XD I think I'll try reseating the cooler on my GPU because I tried running it with the panel off and it...

Just built mine after months and months of waiting. Now I have 2 issues, the demci filters rub on the GT fans over my CPU creating an audible sound. I think I have a fix though. The other issue is my EVGA 780 FTW edition is running at 93 degrees C. I tried removing the fans and shroud and...

Not related to modifications to the unit itself more for the campaign, Panel packs as a perk. PLEASE

Another vote for panel packs if a new run is done! I'd probably buy 2 whole sets of panels and try painting one set so I still would have a black or silver set to fall back on.

I haven't bought Demiflex's yet as my build isn't happening for 4-6 weeks. I really should get some soon though. Okwchin, you've convinced me I need a funky colour on the plastic of the filters. Maybe yellow for the asus mobo or green for the Nvidia GPU? Maybe red because I like red...

Thanks for that. I picked up the last 3 GT's my work had in stock so once I get my build moving (set back another month!) I'll probably do some testing and see how the temperatures compare and if I can hear any annoying noise. I usually play music though so I doubt it'll bother me. Not sure I'd...

Eep, how? I'm considering Gentle Typhoons (120mm 1850rpm) on mine. Okwchin, have you tested with these? If so how does the C14 perform with 1? With 2?

I thought both fans on the C14 were 140mm with 120mm mounting holes?

And Aussies (particularly East coast) wanna order together for Demciflex filters? Save postage and all.

I don't have the highest opinion of Asrock, I've seen 6 returns of their boards with bent pins out of the box in the last 2 days and (in Australia at least) their warranty policy is woeful.

I was thinking of waiting for the MSI Z87i-GAMING-AC as I have a 5.1 stereo and want to be able to plug it in properly, I want AC wireless and I DON'T want audible hiss over the audio lines (Impact + SS SFX PSU) The other option I'm looking at now is the GA-Z87N-WIFI and a Intel Dual Band...

2 more weeks of work and I should have the capital to get my build moving. In the mean time I tried to cast some replacement feet but in my haste/exhaustedness/derp I grabbed part A of one resin and part A of another, essentially ruining my mold. The mold was subpar anyway as it turns out these...
