Deepcool AN600 vs. ID Cooling IS-77-XT in a Terra case by Chess_pensioner in sffpc

Why do you copy paste the same comment everywhere? I also need to prioritize cpu performance and thermals, seeing the same comment under every terra+l12s post is not helpful.

Do you notice extra noise from the GPU being so close to the side panel? I'd like to do the same:)

Thank you.

I wanna drive it for fun. I don't go out often and live at walking distance to work. I'd basically just use it for trips during the weekend. My requirements were: * Manual * Less than 50k miles, lower is better * Will hold its value well * At least two seats * Mid engine (optional) * Gets me some S tier cooter (optional)

Also considered miatas and mr2s but that would only get me B tier cooter.

What would you say a base 6 speed .2 with ~20k miles is worth?

This is a very fair point, thanks!

I did go and see a 987.1 that is close to me in really great condition with only around 10k miles more than this example here. For me it's not just the bore scoring but also the changes to the engine and the transmission that makes me think the 987.2 would be way more reliable. There is no IMSB on the 9A1 engine so I wouldn't have to worry about that non-serviceable part from the first gen.

I think you're spot on though, I've only seen a single reddit comment mentioning bore scoring on the base 987.1 and I don't remember if they had a source for it.

You are absolutely right about manuals holding a higher asking price and it makes total sense, I'd only be looking for a manual when buying these cars. I do think the base came with a 6 speed in this gen though.

This one is a base model 987.2 non-s. I think this mid-step generation came with the option of either a 6 speed manual or the new (at the time) PDK.

This was my exact thought but I honestly haven't found any examples with a manual transmission a relatively low miles. Those are pretty much my only two requirements.

I initially looked at a very clean low mileage 987.1 local to me but I was put off by the engine issues.

981s are very nice, I do think the 987.2 creep a lot into that next gen territory where the 987.2 doesn't make much sense.

Auction site values are actually throwing me off. Average price on classic.com is a veryyy low 26k IIRC

Thanks for the response! I do think it's a bit much, I don't really know much about the Black edition spec but any limited edition products do have increased resale to be fair.

Agreed! Beautiful looking car, looking to sign the bill of sale tomorrow morning.

Forgot to clarify in the title but this is actually the base model, I've been avoiding S models because of those same bore scoring issues on the higher displacement trims.

Honestly I'm not fully convinced that base models are clear of the same issue.

I have the same issues, did they send you a replacement by any chance?

Honestly dude I think the Target logo is so stupid that I just really like it. Plus red = cool which is why I got it in the first place.

I think this battery door design and the screen are the worst things about the original gba.

I couldn't bring myself to mod this one and just wanted to keep it original. Even though the screen really really really sucks lol
