The lack of air conditioning explains it. I keep my room between 20-25C but temps are always under 40C for my GPU.
I'm not running 4K yet. I want to change my triple 1440P monitors to 4K. There are really any IPS, HDR1400, 240Hz panels out yet that I want with the new display port or HDMI...
Why would EK make the backplate Black on a nickel plated /Plexi block?? It should be silver to match the aesthetics. This isn’t to mention they changed the design from the beautiful 3090 FE block from the other year. That one has the best styling overall which if I recall, won an award too. It...
Cheaper materials are more prone to fail as I've experienced with certain brands. EK, for example doesn't always use the best quality arcylic because I've had some crack over time with no stress added from the fittings. Cast vs Extreuded and the thickness of each makes a difference. Price...
Nothing is excessive if you desire to have the best. I'm an engineer and when I build a PC it's down correctly without compromise. Material quality is key as well, you can buy cheaper ones but you risk problems. I have a $700 X570 motherboard (Aorus Xtreme) , does it make sense, nope but it...
Distro plates aren't cheap. I build 2 systems one for my wife and one for me in Lian Li cases. If you do you loops correctly and don't cut corners. I spent $400 on my distro plate and $250 on my wife's and the price of mine doesn't include the 2x Aquacomputer D5 Next pumps.
Sure you can do...
Caselabs went out of business for other reasons like their razor thin margins and having prices increase for their raw materials. There was a lot of discussion about their closure on here for reference. Don't spread inaccurate information when there's a lot more to the story than what was...
Thermaltake makes The Tower 900 which can house 2x 560mm radiators. I own one and there's plenty of room if you want to go big.
Edit: The P8 can easily handle more than 1 420mm radiator, it looks like you can fit 2 maybe 3 deoeni on the thickness of each. Top/bottom/ front or side
There are tiny gaps on the sides of the front panel for front intake, same goes for the top. Side intake is also open via mesh slots in the case. It's pretty easy to see but not the best for airflow. I'd rather run it as an open frame chassis and powder coat in white
EK is taking away the WHOLE front radiator space which mind you holds dual 480mm Rads for this distro plate. They're literally saying screw cooling which means only a top radiator and rear exhaust (top supports a 420mm rad). I have the 1000D and it sucks even with dual frontal 480mm rads due to...
