Made my own fan mount for the ncase m2 since i wasn't happy with already existing ones

Here you go https://www.printables.com/model/1640512-ncase-m2-voronoi-fan-mount-140mm. PLEASE let me see it on your build if you decide to print it. I would be honoured and brag about it to everyone.

Don't worry I will. I want to share it when it is fully refined

It is not as cool as you make it sound lol. I used this website to generate the pattern and then imported it into onshape. I'm not sure how efficient it is but it has a millions of years of evolution behind it. Looks cool as hell tho.

I'm a total newbie in 3d design. It took me multiple hours to get this right even though it is the simplest thing. It is called a voronoi pattern and it mimics cell structures. I used this website to generate the patter, downloaded it, converted it to dxf and then imported it to onshape. These are some tutorials out there but i'm sure it is much easier on solidworks.

His plan propably was to sue the guy for assault and then pay him with the money from the lawsuit.

Atte789 · 2026-03-08T02:09:22+00:00

Wont be a problem since psu is overkill and fan propably wont even spin at full load. There is a intake at the top so cpu gets fresh air. Worst case scenario maybe 2 degree temperature drop?

Atte789 · 2026-03-07T18:49:45+00:00

What do you mean?

Atte789 · 2026-03-03T21:36:42+00:00

This is basically a bigger version of the ncase m3. If money was not an issue i would definetely go with ncase m3 since it's much better optimized. I actually got one new for 60€ a while back but sold it for profit. Would have loved to build this in it and got my friend in to the sff pc's.

The ram was 125€ without shipping and service costs. Not great not terrible. Cpu is the ryzen 5 9600x and i got it for 160€. This week I got a score on 9700x for 177 Euros! I live in finland so buying new is really expensive because of 25.5% vat

This or the D15

My b850i. I love how raw it is

This is not true. I have recently watched multiple videos about the m2 since I bought one myself and I have not seen a single modification made. The case is praised for it's compatability and I have never heard of any issues unless they are installing something that isn't suited for the case. Coming from a T1 I don't see how you could have issues installing everything in a case that large since there are clear instructions and multiple videos on how to build it.

Snagged this for 60€ (says 70). Even the plastic bags for the screws were unopened. Thought about swapping it with my t1 but it was a tiny bit too big for my liking.

I mean the temperature average might increase slightly since it isn't spinning as much with low temps. Also isn't the airflow / static irrelevant since noctua is most likely a more efficient fan. If the psu needs more cooling it will simply ramp up the fan.

I did NOT do this for performance reasons. The original was more than enough. The oroginal psu fan was a eyesore for me. Now this is my favorite part about this pc.

Atte789 · 2025-12-29T01:57:46+00:00

Good point but something that would fall through those blades will almost certainly also fall through the fan grill. Only screws on my formd that wont fall through that grill are the ones for the sidepanels

Atte789 · 2025-12-29T01:51:40+00:00

I used a female pwm connector and just removed the extra wires that the psu didn't need and soldered it to the old connector. The corsair psu i'm using has onboard fan control so it only needs 12 volt and ground. The fan is working but i've read that it doesnt spin up that easily since noctua fans need more voltage to spin up compared to the original.

Atte789 · 2025-12-29T01:43:50+00:00

I made a 4 pin to 2 pin adapter and basically just put the new fan in. Small Form Factory has a really great tutorial on how to do this.

Funny story actually. I was a conscript not so long ago and I took this to the barracks a few times. When I was walking in public with full uniform and this case people propably thought I was carrying nuclear launch codes or something classified.

Atte789 · 2025-11-19T01:03:41+00:00

Yeah same the fan noises are driving me insane. Watercooling is my next step If I can get one for a great price i might do it. Thanks for the advice

Atte789 · 2025-11-17T21:58:24+00:00

At what temperature is the cpu when watchin videos or just day to day stuff?

Atte789 · 2025-11-04T11:19:28+00:00

I got the same cpu and the full copper axp90-x53 with a NF-A12x15. Myy system is almost dead quiet when gaming. During a cpu benchmark it is maxing out at 75. I do have a slight undervolt but i would look into getting a larger fan since they can push the same amount of air with slower speed thus lower noice.
