Sorry for the slight derail but thought I would help out a potential owner of a Ghost S1 with a free original Nh-L12. I upgraded to the L12s when it was released for my M1 and with the original no longer being produced it will become rare and over priced the same way the C14 did for us M1 users...

Wow that's a nice combo package, one I purchased was just this one.

Upgraded version of the pcq10. This one certainly has some real potential for 240+120 custom loop.

Well the h100i with a artic cooler for the gpu should be an extremely powerful combo. Should allow your 7700k to push into the 4.8-5ghz territory. For dual 120 aios, I think the recommended setup is a h60 or other similar aio that does not have the tubbing come out directly from the cpu block...

I would recommend a hybrid aio for the 1080ti and air cool the cpu vs double aio. But it really depends what your OC goal is with the 7700k. The U9s is the top performing tower cooler for the M1.

That 60mm air cpu cooler height restriction. :( Maybe the community can compile a theoretical min/max configuration with 60mm coolers. Dan mentioned the C1 in passive mode but that would be 61mm and would require a lot of testing since that seems to be very unlikely to function well with a GPU...

The endeavor of creating a personal custom short set is no easy task but the reward is so worth it in my opinion. I created my set in one weekend, time is really the deciding factor since cost of materials is relatively small amount compared to what we invest in these builds. I too had issue...

Of all the amazing watercooling I have seen in M1's thus far, that link takes to cake for my favorite thus far. Something about it's simplicity makes me want to do the exact same thing in my build.

Cooler fit just fine it's an error on Lian Li's part. Case can fit up to 160mm coolers from the research I did before purchasing it and the U12S fit perfectly.

Received my Lian Li PC-Q10 today, was planning on swapping my M1 build into it because of the window panel. Having second thoughts though because the overall build quality just doesn't compare to the M1. For instance the non-windowed side panel bulges out on one side, like the frame is tweaked...

This weekend I decided to redo my PSU cables in order to be able to flip my SFX-L onto the correct side. Before I had the fan on the inside but because directly in front of it was the hybrid radiator in push/exhaust in the back of my mind I figured it was being starved for air since it was...

boltdepot is where I purchase all my metric hardware online. All 12.9 too, I replaced all the stock hardware since the lian li hardware is very soft from the factory.

Have you considered removing the heat spreader on the left side of the cpu socket? I am assuming that is what's getting in the way correct? I had to remove it on my Stinger MB in order to get the L12 to fit too. Month in and have yet to notice any issues. Guess because the fan is still blowing...

Anyone have some first hand knowledge on pcie risers for their M1? Trying to figure out if there are any other "good" options besides a 3M twin axial. Not sure I want to purchase it just yet because the shortest size is 250mm. Would be great for 3M to make some custom sizes like say 150mm.

Dondan, did you get in contact with 3M in order to create a custom length twin axial from them? I noticed the 300m the case comes with is not the standard size one can purchased from say Digikey. Can you share the minimum order amount to get a custom product from 3M? A 150mm twin axial riser is...
