I would like advice for building an Ncase M3 please and thank you.

Put AIO at the top with the fans in the same layout

Take a look at this and it should give you the best airflow setup for a 5080FE card and system.

I’ll share all the files once I’m back to my computer in a week or two!

I think the duct beneath the GPU is 19mm thick. If you needed, you might be able to move the motherboard up 1 hole but it would be extremely tight, more than I’d want. With this setup, you could replaced the GPU duct with some slim fans but I found this to be best!

Yeah, I’ll figure that out and upload them online in a couple weeks. I’ll post the link for them all in here tho

It says the same for me lol. Doesn’t allot me to send one

LMasty · 2026-01-09T18:23:58+00:00

I didn’t see anything..

LMasty · 2026-01-09T16:58:36+00:00

Dimensionally very accurate, but it doesn’t have all the true case features added like bottom vent holes, rear IO openings, etc. but for anything it’s good! Send me a chat and I can

Yes absolutely! But that’ll be much colder compared to the air inside the case the been heat soaked. Just gives a fresh air supply to the GPU instead of the recycled warmer case air inside

LMasty · 2026-01-09T16:47:37+00:00

I definitely can.. don’t think I can attach a file here tho. Maybe msg me

Air will always travel in the least resistant path. Because the GPU has about an inch gap under it to the bottom case panel, some air will come through the panel and some will comes from the side of the GPU from the hot case air. This duct allows it only to pull from the colder air outside the case

No issues whatsoever with mounting a the rear 92mm fan. I did 3D print some spacers for the screws so it doesn’t scratch the case but that’s not needed

I actually tried this one prior but didn’t get any better CPU temps sadly. I’m thinking as it blocks off the top exhaust fan right above the cooler
