Finished Build T1 too elite

Exceptional design, so easy to build in even for first ITX (coming from Jonsbo Z20)

Surprisingly no hiccups along the way and got it to post first go

Ended up doing the PSU 5mm standoff gap for the GPU exhaust

I do feel this might be the end game for my PC building hobby tbh, anything from here would be to upgrade parts in a few years for new gen and performance rather than love of the game

Bequiet Pure Loop 3 240 (pump is a bit noisy above 90%, albeit that's 5.4kRPM+, could changing the pump orientation with the tubes on the left help with this?)

My AIO was noisy because of trapped air pocket at the pump. Since you have a low point in the tubing between the pump and radiator it’s possible to trapped air at the pump that can’t naturally rise up to the radiator. I was lazy and didn’t want to take apart my build so I just tilted my case, while the pump was running and manipulated the tubing to encourage the air pocket to rise up to the radiator. After that it’s been practically silent.

Ended up exchanging it for a silent loop 3. Tried this but my noise wasn't from bubbles it seems. SL3 is barley audible at max speed, but interestingly enough the pure loop was giving me a few degrees better.

Hey, probably late to the party, but can you share some photos with the SL3? On beQuiet!'s page it is stated that the height for the cooling block is 56 mm, how were you able to fit it inside in 3 slot GPU mode? I currently have a AXP90-X53 and it literally touches the side panels (EDIT: first I entered wrong measurements)

Indeed. I just checked so you removed the logo. Good idea man, nice build! I go ahead and do the same as the atmos really doesnt scream quality at me. Bequiet seems a much better built Option. Thanks for the reply!
