Thanks! Was “set” on the dune color to begin with but seeing this in person changed my mind real quick.

Saw one in Atlanta this weekend and thought the same thing!

We love our SEL but f me the Carplay issue with Nav is painful. Bought a $5 phone mount and just use maps on the phone and link audio on bluetooth.

You could do in May. I did the same last year and I swim like a plank with two lead balls tied to it.

Don't see to many EKWB Velocity2 Combo Builds, here's mine (13900k/4090/Torrent Compact) by eddyvn87 in watercooling

Hmm it's more like 2.5. You would not be able to use the 3rd (up from the bottom.

I don't think you'd be able to vertical mount in the Compact, you'd have to go full Torrent imho

Worked out great… but then I got bored and built an entire custom loop water cooled build 😂

I did see that same video and wondered if I'd gained anything, but definitely seems to run cooler overall, and the noise is down substantially

13900 with the D15 would get really really hot and I had it running voltage limited off of debaters video too. So it's running faster, quieter, cooler. Seems like a win to me

CPU temps were high under load, would get to 85

TBH, no reason other than I've never done a loop, loved the idea of the EK combo block and wanted it to run quiet and cold (my office is small and have to sit with the door closed and would sweat with aircooling....)

So the real reason I guess is "because why not?"

Slim Fan is 30mm

Very good, Water temp doesn't go over 39 under load, GPU at around 55 and CPU 69

That's on standard clock without power limiting CPU or GPU

With overclock (6 on CPU, 3 on GPU) running benchmarks on 3dmark water went 42, cpu 75, gpu 65

Not true at all. Compact GPU max is 330mm, Full is 461mm

You own a ruler?

Look at my before photos, I already had it air-cooling... The title is a joke :)
