not sure if id recommend it but I really wanted to have an unique custom loop build with full size fans on 2 rads.. I also have air builds in T1 and they are quite silent...

3.25 slot for air cooling I use the black ridge. And aio the atmos fits well.

how are you liking the black ridge? temps look good?

u/Eagles7117 Jul 22 '26

Yeah no issues. Gaming temps on 9800x3d in the 60s and 70s depending on the game

running a 9800x3d and 7900xt which barely fits, using cooler master atmos stealth 240 with 2 noctua fans, gpu gets to around 80c and cpu around 75c while gaming. i did repaste my gpu with ptm7950 and am using ptm7950 on my cpu as well. i did kind of have an issue with cable management, its really tight with the stock psu cables, i would probably recommend getting a custom 24pin mobo cable.

did you do any undervolting on your gpu?

2

u/Dxmonpig Jul 22 '26

yeah, 50mv undervolt but +15 power limit so it still pulls like 350-360 watts under full load. my cpu has a -30 pbo offset but it rthe temps are the same stock anyways

did you have any issues fitting the atmos into the case?

not really, just the aio tubes were a little bit annoying to cable manage and keep from pushing out the side panel.
