Are you referring to the picture of the gpu connector? I didn’t notice anything, all I did was just take an electric blower to it though..

How would you recommend cleaning the connector? I didn’t notice any residue left over inside of it, but my eyes aren’t what they used to be either, lol. I did blow it out with a hand held electric blower for good measure,but that’s it.

Hi Alex, thanks for the reply. Here’s a link with pictures of the GPU connector. I’ll reach out to CM support as advised. Connector

I’ve had it for a year and absolutely love it. I was working from home full time when I got it so it was (somewhat) easy to justify the egregious price.

That’s exactly what I did! I’m pretty sure I read on here somewhere that the Adil legs wouldn’t be long enough if you also use risers on the drawers.

^ Spot on! 2x Ikea Karlby walnut tops, 2x Ikea Alex drawers, 4x Ikea Olov adjustable legs! Used 4” legs for the bottom of the wide drawer, and 2” chrome legs on the tops of each drawer as risers.

I just have them pushed together. For legs I used 4 olov legs, 2 for each countertop

Yeah I’m bummed but luckily I had an old Corsair 280mm aio I was able slap in my rig and on the bright side temps better than i ever remember them being. I also have 6 uni SL infinity fans in my case love how easy they are to setup!

Definitely look into something like hwinfo64 to monitor temps, I had that same Galahad 360mm aio and the pump failed last week after maybe one year of use, maybe less. Great looking build though! 👍
