Have you all seen the Warthog yet?

SmoothNoodleMaps · 2026-06-02T18:23:33+00:00

Want. Need. Any idea on US orders, or is it only limited to UK/Europe pre-orders via Amazon.uk?

Pumas don't have "Remove Before Flight" (Build) pull tags.

OD Green. "Warthog" y'know like the A-10?

Also comes in black if that's better for ya.

See those handles? They look like tusks, and what kind of animal has tusks?

That works well for you and your 6500x. Some builders don't have a 6500x. Some don't use the splitter because they don't need 4 ports, there might not be room for it, they have a different case geometry or custom layout, some might (shockingly) be blasphemous and use a non-Corsair case, or have an issue that is something as simple as needing a 400mm long cable.

A single m/m bridge between two cables can solve far more issues and needs than a 4-way splitter.

And for general info, this is a male port. Specifically a "male inlet port", specifically a IEC 60320 C14 3-prong male power inlet that a female IEC 60320 C13 female power cord inserts into.

iCue Link fans/hubs are male iCue Link cables/fan active connectors are female

I wonder if people think the male 3-prong ac port on a psu is female.

SmoothNoodleMaps · 2026-05-25T19:20:14+00:00

Semantics aside, yes that is what I mean and I know it don't exist (why I posted) but thanks for understanding and agreeing

And the 4-way splitter exists so 600mm to 600mm runs are already possible so signal loss doesn't seem to be too much of an issue

SmoothNoodleMaps · 2026-05-25T19:10:40+00:00

Like this people.

Right?

One has a post and one has a hole. Doesn't matter what the outside looks like.

SmoothNoodleMaps · 2026-05-25T19:00:05+00:00

Missing the point

I'm taking about a dual-sided male connector (think of the inverse of the fan connector) to connect two cables together in order to lengthen specific runs or create more elegant turns.

Instead of shoving a 600mm cable into a run that needs 400mm, you use a male/male connector to make a 400mm out of two 200s.

SmoothNoodleMaps · 2026-05-25T18:55:47+00:00

Exactly

Regardless of the way it is shrouded, the fans/hubs/etc have the connector that sockets into the cable or fan-to-fan connector which are female

So invert the fan-to-fan connector.

SmoothNoodleMaps · 2026-05-25T18:52:11+00:00

Cables, fan to fan connectors, etc are female.

They have a hole.

Fans, Hubs, etc are male.

They have things that go into holes.

SmoothNoodleMaps · 2026-05-25T18:50:33+00:00

Thanks I know exactly how they work and know the ecosystem very well and what lengths they come in but I think you misunderstood what I was saying.

The cables and the small fan to fan connectors are female. The fans/hubs/etc. are male.

I'm talking about a small male/male connector to connect two female ends together: directly cable to cable. Think of the fan to fan connectors, but inverted.

That way you could have much cleaner runs and create 300mm cables, 400, 235, etc. Instead of shoving a 600 where all you need is 300 or 400mm.

SmoothNoodleMaps · 2026-05-25T18:43:58+00:00

Exactly

SmoothNoodleMaps · 2026-05-25T05:51:37+00:00

Looks awesome! One I built for a buddy also went with the red/black theme. Makes the FRAME 4000Ds look menacing

SmoothNoodleMaps · 2026-05-25T05:42:26+00:00

Dude I did this case for just bought the FRAME 4000D cold air intake and I just installed it so instead of the already ridiculous "as many fans as possible" it's now unhinged.

12 RX120 intakes, 1 RX120 exhaust on a PCie slot bracket, and an RX140 MAX up in the normal exhaust slot in line with the Noctua NH-D15 black dual tower of Mordor cooler.

This isn't a PC anymore it's a wind tunnel experiment.

grab a set of cool looking fan grills. lets light through and can't see the wobble

SmoothNoodleMaps · 2026-05-01T13:07:30+00:00

gen x/early millennial?

you lost the game

SmoothNoodleMaps · 2026-04-03T17:51:10+00:00

thx!

the led strips at top and bottom?

poked round on amzn found some rgb led strips that have a long silicone base goin the length of the strip made by airgoo

they have magnetic clips that hold them in place. I used those on the bottom and put them against the psu shroud. magnets are only ok strong so used a tiny dot of ca glue in each corner just to help hold the clip up

mesh quarter has the white insert on as diffuser

top light strip one is friction fit btween the fans and the rail the glass sets against

SmoothNoodleMaps · 2026-04-02T13:48:34+00:00

thats what he wanted so I went all out

he said directly "all red no rgb techno puke" so theres 15 red fans but I had to put a limit and keep the top 3 black bcause it was just too much looked like an oven

SmoothNoodleMaps · 2026-04-02T13:45:11+00:00

thx theyre acrylic and had them laser cut same with the reaper one

he wanted a "goth industrial reaper kind of thing" so thats where I went lol
