For MB purchasers: what case are you getting?

I’ve just ordered the Jonsbo TK-0, which at 14 liters is a lot more room than needed but it’s a good look on the desktop. I’m a bit concerned that it’ll look a bit empty without a GPU board as in the photo, but hopefully that’ll add to the “clean” look.

On the plus side for a larger case, that means a few more (large, but quiet) fans to increase the airflow. I’ll likely put a 140 in the bottom and top panels, though I’m considering omitting the top fan for noise reasons and putting two 90’s in the back as forced exhaust.

I was shopping around, my desktop lives in its cardboard box for now. I think I’m going to 3d print a case, I haven’t been completely happy with any of the options.

Been trying to find a good case, and I think you just showed me what to get. Cheers!

On the WiFi/Bluetooth card is there a certain ‘Key’ connection we need to be aware of? As in either Key A or Key E? Thank you.

I have built several machines in the this case and really love it. Planning to put this motherboard in one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kxbhnZR8hag

I went with the LZmod A24-V5 and a 500W HDPlex GaN PSU.

I’d love to get a case with only a single card slot between 200mm and 210mm wide so I could fit two in a rack side by side..

Captain case v9 should have better ventilation due to 3x 80mm fans in the front.

I went with Enhance ENP-8345L 450W. Let’s see what it’s gonna be at the end.

Finally had the chance to assemble my machine over my Christmas break. Nearly done. Just finishing up my PCIe x4 to x16 adapter to get the dGPU working. Everything works great just without the dGPU for now.

Put mine in an OG kickstarter Ncase M1 from 2013. This case is kind of absurd for this, but the case looks just as good today as it did 13 years ago. FYI the 140mm round noctuas with 120mm mounting holes work great. Max temp Ive seen on this thing is 80C with a sustained full GPU load and it’s whisper quiet.
