ronantoon Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 (edited) looks the part to me dude... all working ok? The only problem is the second commander pro is not showing up anywhere. Also at what temp does the AX1600i power supply fan come on? Edited April 1, 2019 by ronantoon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zotty Posted April 1, 2019 Author Share Posted April 1, 2019 Try the Copro on a Different usb header? and the PSU fan should kick around 50c iirc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronantoon Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Its plugged into the other commander pro. Im out of headers on mother board. The compro headers seen to have 6 pins, is there a special way to plug it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salsiccia Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Its plugged into the other commander pro. Im out of headers on mother board. The compro headers seen to have 6 pins, is there a special way to plug it in. Been following this thread with huge interest as I've just bought a selection of Corsair CoPro, ML RGB fan packs and upgraded my aged H100i 1st gen cooler to an RGB Platinum and am also out of USB headers on my mobo. I found a device from "somebody else" that is effectively a mobo USB header "power board" - it turns one mobo USB header into 3 more. I'm planning to use it to connect some combination of my CoPro, NoPro, H100i cooler into. I looked for PCIEx card to do this, but couldn't find one readily available down here in Australia ! A USB header device like this might help get you over the hump ronantoon, if you can find one near you - just food for thought. Loving this thread zotty and extremely jealous of your case and build !!! Thanks to you and all on here who provide excellent advice so willingly - really helps amateurs like me take that next step.

Salsiccia Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 A teacher of mine once said "There's no such thing as a dumb question, only dumb answers". Every answer I've seen on here has been far from dumb - very helpful and knowledgeable community. I do like your diagram Zotty and I must confess I have unashamedly stolen that principle to map out what I want to do and its been very helpful :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngryButters Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I'm pretty sure Zotty wouldn't mind. It is a pretty awesome diagram. It is also going to help me when I map out mine in a few months time too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LexGoyle Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 This is certainly an impressive build no doubt. I am actually looking into buying this case to replace my Antec Eleven Hundred which I picked up like 7 years ago. Time for an upgrade and the dual system aspect does interest me. Anywho, I'm still in the planning phase, particularly when it comes to the fans. If two of the 3x140mm trays would fit on the front that'd pretty much settle it for me but alas that does not seem to be the case. The question I'd like to ask you is what would you recommend for a front fan configuration? For context the H115 Pro Plat I picked up will be top mounted and I do not plan on a custom loop for this any time soon if at all. Basically I cannot decide if I should go 3x140 or 8x120. Got any suggestions? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zotty Posted April 11, 2019 Author Share Posted April 11, 2019 Hi bud... imho... 8x120mm would be the better option.. it's an awful long way from the front of the case to the back lol and you have no choice will cooler going up top as it wont reach to the front.. and can confirm.. can't get 2 3x140mm trays in the front or the top.

Thanks for the confirmation on the trays there. You do raise a good point. I decided to add up the CFM of the 8 LL series fans I'm eyeing vs 3 of the 140mms and yeah it's more than double going with the 8. I also hadn't considered the sheer volume of the innards of that case. lol Probably explains why I've had a hard time finding examples online of the 1000D being used with a 3x140mm on the front configuration. Never thought I'd see the day where I'd be spending over $400 just in fans for a case. R.I.P. my bank account. lol Thank you again for your input. ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zotty Posted April 11, 2019 Author Share Posted April 11, 2019 No worrys man.. happy to help! And its something i dont discuse with the wife..the amount spent on fans lol.

Zotty Posted April 12, 2019 Author Share Posted April 12, 2019 well... lol.. its not like a need to run the fans at silly speeds.. but yes... lots of fans does equal a bit more wind noise than normal. as for dust. all my intakes are filtered. i only have the 2 rears as exhaust. so dust is at a minimum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
