That turbulence issue isn't a fan fault at all.

Maybe it would be sleeker if you put a tiny led between the power button and the USB-C connector

Hey, Dondan! I think your semipassive scheme isn't feasible because A) air always chooses path with lowest resistance. That means air will flow through the open spaces which are plenty in there, not through the heatsink. B) You can force air to move through the heatsink by some kind of ducts...

C4-NOW (not only water)

But there is a gap between the fan's blades and the fins, isn't it? If so, the air will leak through it at least partially

Actually, I think you did worse. The air now can useless escape through new cuts instead of blowing through the radiator.

It would be nice if there is such a shiny edge at the bottom as well

It's 4 mm

I'm sorry that I have to contradict you but Dondan in the referenced post said he used a Scythe SY1012SL12M fan with this cooler. If there was a cooler that could cool a cpu passively I think there would not be the need for a special cooler Dondan is developing now.

What a bummer the cooler looks so promising and performs so bad.

Did somebody try a PH-TC12LS CPU Cooler? It's exactly 48 height and has a gap between the heat transfer plate and the fins. I just wonder if there's enough space to squeeze a fan there?

(20 +19) * 43 + 20 = 1697 on the side.

I think that is a 40d but I am not sure. That is not my camera. An colleague's of mine. Most of my photos were taken with a IPhone 4, and some with a Panasonic FZ2000. You are right, the lens in the photo is a 70-200L, and it was mine a couple of years ago. I sold it to my work mate while doing...

You've got almost 10 degrees already. And you can't know exactly what the temperature on the C7 would be with the CPU no throttling. And there also are different fan speeds? The result is not relevant. I think that you at least are touching your goal if not have reached it already.

Yes, 94. There is no mistake. That is why I eventually ended up using GPU and CPU sensor combined as a source for PSU control, because of the 75 degrees threshold in Asus MB fan control. I've stuck the sensor toughly in between the heatsink and that little black thingie in the very middle...

That is pretty cold temperature you got there. I've got 94 degrees on that heatsink (though at the very bottom of it), 50-60 on the top of the largest capacitor next to the HS and 40 degrees just in the air inside the PSU. Those values have been measured in the idle, with the fan turned off...

The bottom ones are the exhaust for the hot air blowing out from the bottom of the GPU. In case there were no vents that hot air would be headed somewhere else in the case.

Can you please also add some holes to zip-tie cables between the front cover and the inner frame wall along the edges? It's really hard to keep them in place overthere.

That's an interesting fact to know. Thank you for clarification!

How did you get that? I have three 14mm Noctuas and none of them is able to spin at more than 2000 RMP (that actually becomes 1950 when installed on a heatsink). a 2500 transcends Noctua's specification of this fan which is 2200RPM(+-10%).

I have to add that it really depends on what motherboard you've got. I have an Asus z270i where the airflow of an LP53 is almost utterly restricted by the VRM heatsink and the memory module. It actually performs surprisingly well considering that. If you have another motherboard than the LP53...

With my anti-turbulence solution no, it is not.

Nope. There also is "+no VRM HS + no IO shield". I don't remember if there was a test of the C7 with such conditions, so it was not a fair comparison. And in equal conditions the C7 is ~3 degrees cooler though it has some turbulence noise of course.

I have a 5 GHz WI-FI. I can tell that with no antenna it works better than with an Asus antenna. And with my makeshift antenna (a 15mm piece of wire sticking out of the socket) it works even better. Download speeds from Steam are 11, 8 and 15 MB/sec respectively.

And I'd like to get another set of external panels only. Just because I want to change color sometimes. Dan, what about that option?

Hey, everyone! These are holes I made to be able to change the CPU cooler without taking apart the whole PC.

In my experience the c7 is about 3 Celsius better. I think it was because of that on an Asus z270i you can place a LP53 only in a position with the fins horizontal and the airflow fully blocked by the memory on one side and significantly blocked by the VRM heatsink on the other side. I've seen...

5+5 is not 10. It's 9 at best. That's how HDD mathematics works.

About the wobbling power button. I think I have found a way to fix it. I've noticed that the switch itself is not that wobbly. The bare power switch actually gives you a really good confident pushing clicking sensation. Just like any other PC case in the world. But you loose this sensation with...

Hello everyone! I've put a few pictures in the build thread https://hardforum.com/threads/dan-a4-sfx-post-your-build-here-thread.1924512/

No of course there is not. One could always bend their own bracket or just use wire straps, no big deal:cool:

I don't think such brackets is a good idea cause even you have a smaller fan, you still have to have free space on the motherboard where those brackets would be in order to put them there. That way you sort of disconcert the goal of using a smaller fan.

Yes, please, that would be very nice of you!

In that case, could we please get the files for a laser printer?

I'd like to have those too. Even without rising frame. I like them look much more and I think they give you better cooling efficiency due to increased vent area. Actually, I'd prefer to just get files so I could print them somewhere by myself. Would not he may be like to share those files pretty...

I get the filters at a local radio store. Here they are http://www.evercool.com.tw/categories/global/accessory/fingerguard&filter.php . I used 90mm grey one for the CPU and 120mm black one for the PSU. I've cut out a circle and glued inside. PSU fan is controlled by the motherboard. I choose...
