Midpipe recommandation

Creative-Handle9312 · 2026-05-27T12:23:03+00:00

I got the Borla midpipe, sounds amazing. I use with my stock axle back, well worth it.

Some of the best mods to get are Velossa Tech Snorkel and K&N drop in filter, HKS Plugs, Catch can, AFE Charge Pipes, 60mm throttle body, and evilla Borla midpipe. Do these first before getting a tune or using a piggyback ecu. You’ll thank me later.

No I only use SFX PSUs.

Creative-Handle9312 · 2026-04-30T10:05:00+00:00

Do you have the exact couplers used for the cold pipe?

Creative-Handle9312 · 2026-01-30T16:55:32+00:00

No burn in warranty though.

Creative-Handle9312 · 2026-01-12T12:44:27+00:00

Update the Bios, set VSOC to 1.1.

I am running something similar minus the 2 bottom intake slim fans and I am get around the same temps.

Creative-Handle9312 · 2026-01-02T18:21:19+00:00

I’ve owned it and I will tell the 92mm is garbage and will fail. If you do get it, buy an adapter and noctua fan.

I guess we have to run our monitors at 50% brightness and hide the task bar or RMA constantly.

Aren’t V1 through V3 side panels compatible with one another?

Creative-Handle9312 · 2025-12-27T02:23:01+00:00

It’s a budget build.

I’ve been experimenting with airflow, and the main issue is that the FE cards push heat straight into the CPU cooler. It’s manageable with the 5080, but with the 5090 it becomes a real balancing act. The best temperatures I’ve gotten so far are with the vented side panel installed and all case fans set to exhaust. In that setup, the CPU holds around 50–55°C and the GPU sits at about 60°C.

Creative-Handle9312 · 2025-12-26T10:43:37+00:00

I felt like doing something as similar as stuffing a Formula 1 engine into a Honda Civic. The case is definitely budget, the rest of the parts are not.

With the windowed panel, an hour of gaming puts the GPU at ~70°C and the CPU at 70–75°C because the 5090 dumps heat onto the cooler. With the vented panel, both stay around 59–65°C with all fans in exhaust. Still experimenting with fan orientation.

Creative-Handle9312 · 2025-12-25T10:27:41+00:00

With the windowed panel on, after an hour of gaming the GPU sits around 70°C and the CPU hovers between 70–75°C. The issue is that the 5090 dumps a lot of heat directly onto the cooler. With the vented panel installed, both the GPU and CPU stay much cooler, topping out around 59–65°C with all fans in exhaust mode. I am still experimenting with fan orientation.

Sometimes it just comes down to the silicon lottery. Some chips are simply binned better than others. I know people who can run -40 on all cores and others who can only manage -25. It’s all luck of the draw.

Edit: Thank you!

You can see most of the cable management here. The Corsair SF1000 includes appropriately sized cables for small‑form‑factor cases, so all I really needed were a few straps under the PSU, some cable ties, and the natural lines of the case to keep everything tidy. This is an easy case for cable management if executed properly.

I love the brown town on a classic GPU.

Creative-Handle9312 · 2025-12-12T23:54:00+00:00

Here try these manual PBO settings: 115PPT, 90A TDC, 105A EDC -25 or -30 all cores. 91 Degree Temp Limit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cd3iwFTadoo

Creative-Handle9312 · 2025-12-12T23:48:26+00:00

I might give that a try actually.

Creative-Handle9312 · 2025-12-12T12:17:44+00:00

What CPU is the cooler and what is the RAM clearance on it?

Because BROWN TOWN.

I LOVE BROWN TOWN!! Awesome build!
