Just Amdother obNoctuas PC Build thread

I have been restoring my GTX 1080 Ti to the original state, putting the 2 extra NF-A12x25 fans to new use, and trying to take pictures of the result that are acceptable despite the terrible reflections of the glass.

Here goes:

Before, with 1080Ti modded

After, with RX6800XT


Yes that is a tent drying in the background. I felt I had to turn on the RADEON RGB logo, otherwise half the case was a black void. I think the bluish white works better than red here.

I added one of the fans to the CPU cooler, the NH-U12A, so ti now runs as it was originally intended, and added the other one as a front intake.

This may be interesting for @Bearhedge:


I was able to keep the 2x 140 mm fans in the front and add a 120mm fan. However, the 120mm was ‘too low’ to reach the 120mm mounting holes in the bottom positions, so I ended up keeping the bottom 140mm fan with just the top screws attached, and added the 120mm fan in the middle.

Now my PC is complete as intended:
Ryzen 5 5600X
Radeon RX 6800XT
Whole lotta beige Noctua
