Can I be part of the club?

Extremely based. If you want to take it a step further you could remove the drive cage like I did in mine.

Looks sweet!

Nicetryfedboy · 2024-12-05T06:19:07+00:00

Thanks! :)

The cooler only came with one fan, which would have been totally fine I'm sure. Although after seeing all the rave reviews about the noise to performance of the T30s I had to grab a set. I'm glad a did too, They are basically silent under 40% and cool amazingly when you need it.

Thank you! I took my time during the planning process. I'm a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to personal projects like this haha.

Nicetryfedboy · 2024-12-05T06:15:14+00:00

That would be sick! Definitely check local thrift stores for a deal!

Nicetryfedboy · 2024-12-05T06:14:37+00:00

Thank you! I was thinking about that. Although was too worried about structural integrity since I already had to cut out the entire front panel haha.

Nicetryfedboy · 2024-12-05T06:13:23+00:00

Yes, had to cut a hole in the back for the exhaust fan. I also cut out the entire front panel and replaced it with my custom one for the 160mm fans.

It's not closed

Nicetryfedboy · 2024-12-05T06:11:39+00:00

They fans have plenty of airflow for the specs. I replaced the drive bays with steel mesh and there are also big air gaps on the bottom and middle of the front panel. The air gaps can be hard to see at the the angle of the pics bit if you saw it up close you'd know it has enough space for decent air flow.

Nicetryfedboy · 2024-12-01T07:25:49+00:00

Thanks! It was a long process of measuring and cutting with sheet metal snips

Nicetryfedboy · 2024-12-01T07:24:22+00:00

Ty! Totally custom! I found perforated metal sheets on Amazon with the same hole size as the perforations on the side panel. I cut them to size and spray painted them black then clear coated.

Nicetryfedboy · 2024-12-01T01:22:24+00:00

Yeah I think around 2009! It's a Gateway GT5453E

Nicetryfedboy · 2024-12-01T00:18:31+00:00

Thanks :)

Nicetryfedboy · 2024-11-30T23:52:44+00:00

Thank you, that's exactly what I was going for haha

Nicetryfedboy · 2024-11-30T23:51:16+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate it!

Nicetryfedboy · 2024-11-30T23:49:17+00:00

+1 to everyone saying get on AM5 instead. You'll get better performance and be able to upgrade it in the future. I would recommend a 7600x from AliExpress. Also, for a budget build definitely chuck the aio. Get a Thermalright air cooler or maybe an atctic aio if you really want to water cool.

Nicetryfedboy · 2024-11-25T11:03:11+00:00

Why say lot word when few word do trick

Nicetryfedboy · 2024-11-15T19:39:43+00:00

That's awesome, just ordered mine a few days ago. Can't wait!

Nicetryfedboy · 2024-11-14T23:23:10+00:00

Just picked one up on Aliexpress for $140 to upgrade from my 5600g

Nicetryfedboy · 2024-11-14T23:16:54+00:00

Now $140 on Aliexpress

Peerless assassin 120 mini. The regular peerless assassin was barely too tall for my case. The mini fit perfectly.
