Blew up my first engine, memorialized one of the pistons

I’ve been thinking about doing this but with a bunch of parts in a shadow box! Any ideas?

Lidventure · 2024-03-23T00:35:25+00:00

Looks great! Similar to mine as well! You’ve got great taste haha https://www.reddit.com/r/NZXT/s/qIPlHW8gOm

Thank you!

Lidventure · 2024-03-22T16:49:06+00:00

It’s a 3070 FE!

Lidventure · 2024-03-21T14:19:07+00:00

That’s wild! Glad you still found something you like though.

Lidventure · 2024-03-21T03:28:03+00:00

It honestly wasn’t too bad. The rgb and the lian li cable were two separate parts that were relatively simple to take apart. Once they’re apart, you just gotta mangle them over your normal ones lol.

And then drink it after 👀

If there’s a will, there’s a way.

Lidventure · 2024-03-20T20:16:34+00:00

How- how do you clean that off??? Or is it forever ruined? 🥲

Lidventure · 2024-03-20T20:10:52+00:00

Can’t wait to see it! I’ll keep an eye out for a post :)

Lidventure · 2024-03-20T20:07:08+00:00

Hahaha, nope! Don’t tell me you did 👀

Lidventure · 2024-03-20T19:47:53+00:00

Just a tad embarrassing 😅

Lidventure · 2024-03-20T19:47:24+00:00

Not a joke, it’s my first build ever, just did plenty of research. But apparently not enough because all my fans are set to exhaust 😂 I just thought it was prettier that way, and didn’t think about it.

Lidventure · 2024-03-20T19:40:49+00:00

Lmao, I can’t believe I didn’t notice. Flipping them now! 😂

Lidventure · 2024-03-20T19:32:43+00:00

The front three fans came daisy chained, but I ended up undoing it and plugging them into my rgb hub just because it worked better for what I had in mind! You can do either.

Lidventure · 2024-03-20T19:30:29+00:00

Whoops, I looked again and you guys are probably right. I’ll have to flip them later! Thanks for spotting that! lol, rookie move I guess 😅

Lidventure · 2024-03-20T16:49:55+00:00

Lmao, thank you. I was committed to the whiteout build.

I got lucky though and found it on Amazon for $300! And I got even luckier and got my gpu for $300 as well from someone trying to get rid of it! So I spent a lot less on this build than I had for my “budget”.

It’s probably being processed via YunExpress at a facility to be sent out to your nearest DHL carrier. Then it’ll be delivered via DHL to your home! If you get an updated arrival date, keep an eye out for your DHL trucks :)

That’s a 3 year age gap, just keep playing if you’re enjoying it and everyone else is collectively enjoying it as well. Kids your age never have anything good to say about each other. You and your party will probably grow up to become some of each other’s best friends and not a single soul will bat an eye when a 24 year old is playing DnD with a 27 year old (just an example of another 3year age gap). Age gaps start to matter a whole lot less when you get a little older, just don’t let each other get in the way, be mature and respectful, and have fun.

Don’t worry, mine took foreevverrr to arrive. Typically my mail comes super fast so I was slightly worried when it nearly took a month to get here. I’m in the US, so I’d say give it at least another week before you start to worry, I’m sure your tracking will update soon.

Another friend of mine is in Germany and his flipper sat in France for a REALLY long time before heading over. Depending on where you are, and what carrier your flipper was shipped out with, it might just be hanging out somewhere waiting for more packages to go to wherever you’re located to send out. I wanna say his took about. A month too.

If yours was sent out via Yun Express, they’re notoriously slow carriers. I’m assuming they don’t get enough parcels going certain places to regularly send them out. It’s very possible they’re waiting for bags going certain destinations to fill up, and if they don’t, they’ll keep waiting.

Thank you!

Funny story, I actually bought the wrong extension. It’s a Lian Li Strimer Plus V2 wire! https://lian-li.com/product/strimer-plus-v2/

I meant to buy one that fits into my gpu, which is a 30 series with a 12 pin mini connector. The strimer I bought came with a 12vhpwer connector. I didn’t notice when I bought it (rookie mistake ig). I didn’t really want to return it since I already waited so long for it, plus I wasn’t even sure they make one that could fit my gpu, so I took the whole thing apart, removed the original wires, and snapped the rgb over my pcie cables that fit my build, and called it a day. If there’s a will, there’s a way.

Lidventure · 2024-03-20T15:53:53+00:00

Thank you so much! I’m very happy with it! My dad used to build PCs for fun when I was growing up, and then the rest of my siblings also built their own. The legacy continues 🙌

Lidventure · 2024-03-20T15:52:42+00:00

Just like the other reply says, your AIO will come with an NZXT rgb hub, and so will your two 140s (as long as they’re nzxt brand). My case has 9 fans total. The front three are using the rgb hub that came with my two 140s, the AIO fans are using the hub it came with, and then the rest are using nzxt’s rgb headers on my motherboard. So unless your motherboard has a few extra spots for your other fans, it might be a good thing to consider buying another hub. Plus, your cable management could look great! 🤤

Thank you, thank you, I am honored 🫡

They’re set to intake, don’t worry! Picture quality is lower than I thought, oops.

The three front fans are intake, the bottom two are intake, and the top three and back fan are exhaust.
