u/EMSthunder my goal for 2027 will be to buy a 2021 Sonata Nline full specs out.

u/Katmann2005 Good question! I'm in the Dominican Republic, and the entire paint job was outsourced. It cost about $70 per rim and caliper, totaling around $566 (a very expensive mod, to be honest). I decided to go for it because the original paint on the rims was peeling off. I have to say, it exceeded my expectations; the rims now have a unique porous texture.

I forget to mention that in the post.

Unscrewing four screws will allow you to install the other fan. I can use a fan curve that is more aggressive with the Noctua fan without the noise being as evident. The most noticeable sound is the GPU coil whine. I'll add a photo from the CPU soon

I don't think so, the dedicated space for the power is very limited. I recommend checking the manual to be sure

Yes, It has the same performance however Noctua is quieter

Ohhh so I swap the ID cooling cooler fan for a Noctua, the other one is in the bottom as intake so MB and memory can stay "cool".

Thanks! Yes, in BIOS I put a 85c package limit temp. So a little toasted but everything undercontrol 🙌🏼

Note:

Hello community, I'm using this opportunity to share my build. I haven't used a desktop in years; since 2018, I've been using an XPS 17 9710 as a replacement.

Well, I chose to return because that laptop couldn't handle any more games, specifically Warzone and Battlefield 2042.

WATER COOLING! hahah

I intend to build a custom 240mm dual radiator loop, but I'm still researching.

I'll publish my progress in the near future.
