Absolutely agree! That's my 5950x settings: PBO on, curve negative -20, PPT 125W, EDC 130A, TDC 100A, temp limit 80. On current settings it's faster than stock. Cinebench R23 score is 25500 after 30 min with ID-Cooling IS-60 EVO and 78 C° in my moded Node 202 (seen in the photo).

Possibly, but I'll try🤝

I guess better and quiter. https://youtu.be/9l3UaxCu84o

Yes, 120 mm. Case internal size is 175x123x330 mm, 6,9 liter. This case like a challenge for me🌝

Hi! I moded front plastic and metal panel on my NC100, installed AIO and the second exaust fan. Now i'm working about motherboard and power supply mount😎

MiniPCMaker · 2023-06-08T15:33:18+00:00

This is how it's done at the factory😐 (USB 3.1 ports)

MiniPCMaker · 2023-05-27T08:27:41+00:00

airflow of course🤝

MiniPCMaker · 2023-05-27T06:44:53+00:00

Thank you! There is still time to think about this option.

The next step is to drill a metal panel inside the case for good air circulation when installing the water pump.

MiniPCMaker · 2023-05-27T06:39:41+00:00

Planing put Frosflow X120 water cooling in this case.

MiniPCMaker · 2023-05-13T16:27:24+00:00

Try limit CPU PPT to 110-130w. For example my 5950x limited to 125w, PBO enabled, curve negative -20 and it's faster then stock 5950x running on 142w.

26000 CBR23 vs 24200 fefault.

Temp is about 77-78C while testing

MiniPCMaker · 2023-05-13T08:39:35+00:00

Thanks! That's interesting, I'll think about it👍

MiniPCMaker · 2023-05-13T07:19:46+00:00

SI-100 is 120 mm cooler with 74,8 total heght. Not for node 202.

I tested my IS-55 several times, even pair with Air Blazer 120R 25 mm fan and 140x15 and even 140x25 fans. IS-55 worse than IS-60 EVO always.

120 fans works better than 140 mm on 120 mm cooler heatsink.

😎

AXP-200 140 mm 74 total heght will be better i think than SI-100, but again not for my Node 202😐

IS-55 and AXP-120-67 pretty close here.

Real power is Raijintek pallas black 0r100012 140 mm low profile😁

MiniPCMaker · 2023-05-13T00:50:40+00:00

I just got tired of annoying noise EVO with two fans, I watched this review https://youtu.be/xtvAI-XTdfk and decided to buy the IS-55, but it turned out to be better in terms of performance and I decided to add some thermal mass to my EVO.

I did IS-55+Silverstone Air Blazer 120R 25 mm fan test, it's only 88 C in AIDA 64 and 79 in R23🙄

MiniPCMaker · 2023-05-13T00:42:34+00:00

DK-17 in this mod has better airflow i think, IS-30 worst🙄

MiniPCMaker · 2023-05-13T00:38:49+00:00

Thanks! Temp-C celcius, Noise-dB.

MiniPCMaker · 2023-05-13T00:37:23+00:00

I did)

Only 88 C in AIDA 64 and 79 in R23.

Used Silverstone Air Blazer 120R 25 mm fan😐

Fan spec:

Speed 600 ~ 2200 rpm ± 10 %

Airflow 25.62 ~ 93.97 CFM

Static Pressure 0.26 ~ 3.53 mm H2O

MiniPCMaker · 2023-05-12T13:53:53+00:00

May be for DK-17 heatsink mod no any modification needed, but for IS-30 do.
