White Manta Ryzen ITX Build

[Warchild]

Don't paint them. Use Vinyl. You can remove it later and keep the resale value should you choose to get rid of it. Also opens up to some interesting black/white designs as oppose to plain solid colouring.

I don't think you will even notice the southbridge red once its fitted vertically.

Wrap them in vinyl as it's reversible.

Looks good. I do have a soft spot for this case.

Hi Boys & Girls,

Job Done

Temps are a bit toasty on the GPU, instantly hitting 70s and throttling, gonna have to take the block apart and see whats going on.

Apart from that the DD pump is a bit noisy, set the motherboard to keep at 30% and ramp up when cpu hits 70c which keeps it quiet, max temp after 30 minute Cinebench R20 is 71c.

Some of the tubing is a bit wonky when you look closely, will defo have another go with some fresh tubing as this one was done with all @Warchild's offcuts

Also had to ditch the radiator in the roof, one I ordered was to fat !

Also,

On the motherboard I have only one 4 pin RGB header and I have it plugged in to a light strip in the roof. Is their some king of splitter for this header so I can plug in the GPU & CPU Block also ?

You can find those on Amazon. Something like this:

EDIT: tube looks pretty good actually, shame about the 2nd rad though, that hurts tons. Getting a slim replacement?

You don't really need to ramp up the pump speed when things get hot. If anything, ramp up the fans.

Ideally the best flow is when the pump does 1 gallon per liter. Mine is currently running now at 30%pwm and it reduces that noise DDC are known for. If you push the pump too hard at the moment, it will just suck air back through the system.

Those bends are much better than mine when i first tried. Damn good curves going on there.

Looks really good though!

When I did mine I just set it like the fans, 7v. I prefer the old school method. Mine is the high powered version too and I really can't hear it at all. Most important thing is getting it on anti vibration mounts.

Cheers, ordered one, should be here tomorrow.

Fixed my gpu temps, I used the wrong effin screws on the gpu block, max temps are around 51c , but now my cpu temps have risen by about 10c to .

Overall well chuffed with this build, thanks to you all for your help along the way, especially warchild for giving me a good deal on the fittings and the white fans.

Ill try to redo the tubing with white tubing in the in the future and get a rad in the top of the case.

Nice black and white wallpaper to match, love it!

 

[Warchild]

No need to thank me

Glad to see they went to good use. Outstanding build.

Here is a thought though. Had you thought about a PE in the front and SE in the top? Perhaps PE allowed you to do a push pull.

p.s. My company questioned the package sent. Had to tell them it was terminal testing for roaming scenarios in France international airport haha. The NZXT and ITX abbreviations seemed to trick them slightly

Glad you're happy. Does look nice.
