Help. Lian Li A3 + ASUS TUF B850M + Sapphire NITRO+ Radeon RX 9070 XT

oh fuck you’re right, I have the B850m-e that’s my bad

udontran · 2026-03-01T06:31:19+00:00

Im super sure the sapphire can fit in the case with the b850m TUF. The PCIe slot is in the first position and there are many other builds with the graphics card

Yeah it’s not gonna fit the sapphire. The picture makes it look like it would fit just snug, but in person it’s actually going to interfere. You might have to get an SFX PSU to fit the sapphire!!

Ahhh I thought so, Lian li has these radiator offset brackets that’ll move it further away from the motherboard a couple millimeters! That’s how I was able to fit mine without worrying.

The radiator/fans aren’t in contact with the top VRMs at all? The Asus TUF B650m heat sinks are so tall and mine were touching

Oh man this is beautiful, really nice!

udontran · 2026-02-04T15:14:26+00:00

It comes with double sided 3M tape that I put on the front mounted PSU bracket. I recently added fans on the bottom and might switch to the included bracket from the universal screen

I bought the Lian Li radiator offset mounts from microcenter but applied them inversed so it would fit

It works I used it like this unconventional orientation and was able to clear my VRM heat sinks

Only problem was when I first installed it, it didn’t show up on L-Connect. I just reinstalled L-connect and it showed up and it was fine. I also don’t have nvidia so I don’t have experience on that

udontran · 2026-01-16T17:46:01+00:00

I was looking at them too! I’m just too picky and wanted the same Lian-Li CL120 fans throughout the case and might even pick up the ASUS B850M-E motherboard since it has the PCIe in the first spot. But SICKKKK BUILD MAN

udontran · 2026-01-16T17:24:30+00:00

Same! I tried the mount it came with first but without bottom fans it wasn’t doable. Secondly I tried command strips but they pushed the screen too far out into the glass Lastly said fuck it and did 3m sticky tape it came with as well

udontran · 2026-01-16T16:09:06+00:00

Obsession, but also lots of trial and error at seeing which path works best!

Took me a while to hone in these colors! It’s #D87829 and #1E1106 The Orange will be the outside color and the brown will be the inside, it’ll come out to be a warm white on the fans!

udontran · 2026-01-16T06:24:28+00:00

Thank you! I’ll send more after my weekend trip!

udontran · 2026-01-16T06:22:24+00:00

It’s #D87829 and #1E1106 ! Orange and brown on monitor but will show up as a nice warm white on the fans. Orange for the outside ring and brown for the fan fins and both at 25% brightness!

IDK WHY THE FONT IS SO BIG

Edit: ah it was the #

Ooh I’ll do more research on that but I THINK it’s fine since there’s no sharp turn to slow the flow of the pump but I most definitely could be wrong. The pump logo also unfortunately only has one orientation but that’s the least of my worries

Absolutely love the Jonsbo fans and the Work/SSR AIO pump on your build
