Your PC ATM

Wanted something bigger then my old Phanteks P300, so got myself P600S, a lot of more room and better airflow then before.
Probably going to change the D15 fans to chromax black at some point..

well it took a year and a half but finally got around to buy some noctua chromax fans and covers

Very bad photo. Test run of this O11 Air Mini, I am seeing 55C CPU and 50C GPU in game, the temperatures are fantastic (and side panel on) The only fans connected are the videocard, the heatsink, one of the side fans, and the rear fan. I still need to connect one of the 120mm and the six 140mm fans but I am waiting on the PWM hubs. The case is easy to build in as long as you remove the top and bottom fans. If the fans (or a radiator I suppose) is left installed, it is extremely hard to fit the motherboard and the wiring. Once I get the hubs and a few more accessories installed I'll get a better picture.

You know I was surprised it even booted with all the RAM kits in it and even no CMOS battery. I was just curious what it looked like while I waited for the second CPU to arrive. It didn't show the extra RAM from CPU2. But because the Crucial's have true blinkenlight LEDs, based on electrical activity, not just software, the underglow LEDs were powered.

Wow, a mobo that boots with no CMOS battery & could you get into the bios on screen?

Added some lights, just realized that my parts are black and silver/white color theme. Too bad the cheap lights are not fully white.
I also need to buy some decent power extension cables, it looks annoying

everything looks good before cables take over it

Depends how one defines 'boot'.

I had a couple of old Pentium 4 systems that ran fine without a battery, the time and date were always wrong and it ran at default settings though.

Fair enough. Allow me to rephrase;
A CMOS battery is not required to post and boot into an OS.

Wasn't too disastrous for a first loop. It isn't done, still need to put the GPU under water. But from here on out there should be minimal modification necessary to the loop itself.

Installed a 2TB 970 Evo Plus

Dam dude, what a beast!

If you were not looking I would touch that unit inappropriately.. I think I would do it even if you were looking.. but I would ask if I could touch it first, because consent is everything

 

[tabascosauz]

The block arrived about 6 days before I was able to start on the loop, so you know exactly what sort of frisky business I was up to for that week.........

A successful boot is when the system passes POST process.

 

[HammerON]

Alright folks, enough of the CMOS battery discussion. Take that to PM or create a thread to continue the discussion.
Carry on~

Sorry,, I am slipping

After updating the bios on my Z590 system, I just ran Intel's Performance Maximiser for 11th Generation core processors ( version: 1.4.10100.2645 ). After running a series of tests before OS loads, it informs me I successfully gained another 100Mhz on Turbo boost!
Never ran anything like that before, interesting that it creates another partition on 1 of my M.2 drives (7Gb)

 

[freeagent]

Not my finest work.. but it is so nice not having to hear my fans drone on and on.. ahhhh.

Lol.. my case has sound deadening material in it & when I game, use headphones anyway. What with 7x140mm fans & 3 others between gpu & psu... NEED that case!

At the top of my case where the fans go, I have the sound deadener panels from my Define R4.. but with 3x iPPC 3K , 2x 140s and a 120 these things get pretty dang rowdy lol

They still do, I now have my CPU fan curve set to a low of 30% and a high of 70%. Running WCG and the CPU is running with PBO @ 4600MHz and the fan is sitting at 1600 revs, The Noctuas should be spinning at around 1200 revs or 1800.. one or the other lol.. you can still hear it, just not through out the house.. sounds like 1800 though

Furnace just kicked in.. normally if I let the fans do what they want they are louder. The furnace is 8 feet behind me with no wall

Well i got the I7 12700k and Asus Rog Strix z690-A wifi D4. Had to reinstall windows 11 which was fun in itself as it refused to remember my key that it was previously activated on so ended up using a win 7 key to activate which also bumped me to pro version from home. Aida64 does not work properly on z600/alder lake so lots of the sensors don't show up.

I haven't got my new case yet so done a tremendous bodge so i can use the new board and CPU, you will love it

Basically until i get the lian li o11 dynamic XL next week, i have shoe horned it into the Matx case, so the board is sticking out of the side.

Well time for pics i guess.

My PC again, but now with a new RTX 3080 card. Sorry image are a bit blurry, my camera sucks.

Want to se more, then you can se more in my project build thread: https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/...-in-1-case-all-air-cooled.283169/post-4660400

That is an awesome build bro!!!!!!

I checked out your build thread and I didn't see what system case that is?

Hell, I'd love to have a case that would hold dual systems!!!!!

I am fairly happy with it. It runs great.

If you simply tjeck my system spec, you can see what case i use.

But to make it easy, the case is a Phanteks Enthoo 719 (the case can alao be under the name "LUXE 2").
