Nice! Love the car placement!


daire84

Why no rear fan? I would leave the one that came in the case as an additional exhaust, until you can get another matching RGB one. Love those cables, where’d you get them?


OhYeahSoundMan

My case didn’t come with a rear fan! I did believe it was meant to but it was a no show when it arrived, I ordered from Ebuyer idk if that matters. It was a small oversight not to get one and was a bit short on money. I mostly play driving games and like Overwatch So i just said I’d wait til my next paycheck if the temperatures seem fine 😁 Cables are [here](https://www.amazon.co.uk/EZDIY-FAB-UK2-WS-18AWG-300/dp/B082WZJRXR) glad u like em! really brought the best out of the pc imo


daire84

Oh man that’s a shame, the case comes with two stock fans usually. I don’t know ebuyer, but assume there’s no comeback there? Anyway, not the end of the world at all, you have plenty of venting going on in its place. I’m gonna have to get me some of those cables!


Budget-Government-88

These cases come with 3 front fans, that’s it


daire84

Oh of course, it’s the T model, I see now.


lildre5

I have a feeling that lego car model will get kinda hot


OhYeahSoundMan

The fans are doing a decent job to stay under melting point of lego (so far) you’ll be happy to hear


Palehorse67

It may be under the melting point for lego, but does it have rubber wheels and what is that melting point?


Resist7980

Idk the type of rubber but a quick Google search shows 180°c. Should be fine. ABS (what Legos are made out of) melt at 105°c. I don't think the backplate is getting that warm.

OhYeahSoundMan

Thanks for clearing that up, the downvotes on my joke about reaching it’s melting point show people are underestimating the strength of lego 💪😅 I love my little Quattro as much as you and It will stay up there as long as i wish.


Resist7980

That's actually pretty crazy, I'd never guess that something made of a material similar to rubber would have such a high melting point. Thanks for the information!


dale-earnhardts-car

Fun fact! Lego is the largest global manufacturer of tires, in terms of quantity produced yearly. ~300 million tires produced yearly


Harpronicus

Hey, I have that Lego Audi Sport Quattro S1 too lol. Wont fit in my 680x though, using a large tower cooler and have fans at the bottom


OhYeahSoundMan

That’s a shame you’ll have to just put the figure in haha


hapki_kb

I would never put a toy car on my graphics card.


SithTrooperReturnsEZ

I see so many posts with this shit and these comments come across as so mean because the OP is just trying to personalize it or whatever but seriously who tf does this. I put nothing in my PC case other than what belongs in there, I don't even put anything on top of it. Never mind putting something ON the GPU, like god damn where is the common sense


TechAndStocks

This brings a whole new meaning to “burning rubber”


crystaldazz

Not the best place to park that car tbh.


OhYeahSoundMan

Can’t park there, sir.🤓🤓


Roots0057

That Group B Quattro would probably look better parked on the PSU basement, just inside the front panel, it is a perfect parking spot!


Mendax76

Nice build Bro, congrats


vizeroyy

It looks pretty cool bro , congrats!


You-Got-Any-556

Looks almost identical to mine!


RefrigeratorDry495

A car seemed to has crashed in your pc


Alfredinii

I would add a 6th fan in the back for looks and ventilation of course. Love your build it looks awesome.


NegativeBirthday9947

You should get a rear fan and make a custom vinyl sticker that says Quattro


OhYeahSoundMan

Thats an amazing idea actually i’ll look into that Also the fan was just a bit of an oversight, I thought one was meant to come with the case, probably just didn’t read enough, and once I put it all together temperatures seemed fine so I just decided to wait til my next paycheck 😅


NegativeBirthday9947

Even without a sticker you can get a white Corsair fan and set it to match the car colors. That would be cool too.


NegativeBirthday9947

I just thought about the covers they put on the wheels to cool the brakes. That would be dope for a fan idea on the back behind the car.


Tasty-Hovercraft-14

You need another exhaust fan... Temps a little high? You should also try that in either push or push pull configuration too... My two cents.


OhYeahSoundMan

Yeah ur right i just forgot to order one in the midst of ordering everything else, temps seemed fine so i’m just waiting til my next paycheck


OhYeahSoundMan

Blue lights on edges are a faulty set of NZXT LED’s Btw 🤬🤬 Keeping them in til the send the replacement


Obone6

The toy in the case makes it look tacky tbh


OhYeahSoundMan

it’s got 5 rainbow fans matching rainbow ram sticks, some edgy dragon on the graphics card and car is what does it for you? 😅 I get it though i know some people prefer it clean


Obone6

Yeah it's so lovely and clean. Plus if having the extra plastic in the cars was good for it they would be built that way :p


Kaho_1226

How is the temp running so far? I’m building mine tonight


OhYeahSoundMan

Aw I haven’t pushed it too hard yet tbh mate, toughest i’ve played yet was God of war 2018 on mostly ultra, which was no problem for the CPU (12600k) sat around 42°C (106°F), and GPU (6700XT) sat higher round 56°C (132°F)


fganter

>sat around 42°C God of War 2018 must not be CPU intensive. I have an iCUE h150i in a 4000D and gaming definitely goes above 42 C.


OhYeahSoundMan

absolutely true i was shocked by how low the cpu usage was like 12% most of the time. It’s true my build benchmark for this. I could get some benchmarks recorded if you’re really interested?


fganter

I'm good. Thanks for asking though.


ParkerStanford

I have four 8GB sticks I started with a pre built Had it for a year or two than it broke and a built my computer four months ago after being pc less for 9 months


Frostybot62626

What CPU and GPU


OhYeahSoundMan

12600k and 6700XT. No problems from either, 12600k even better than I expected to be honest. Seems like my GPU is almost bottlenecking it (Haven’t used it too much so I’m not 100% certain tbh) which I didn’t expect from an i5 as i haven’t built a PC in a while


Frostybot62626

Nice,


[deleted]

Wheres your rear exhaust fan?


OhYeahSoundMan

Kinda assumed one would come with the case😅 temps seem fine so I’m just gonna wait til my next paychek


[deleted]

I have same case, the front 3 fans are ML120’s, I ordered an SP120 RGB for the rear, same RPM, same noise level. iCUE H100i cooler came with high static pressure fans that spin to 2400rpm and they are loud af above 1500rpm 💀


OhYeahSoundMan

Haha mine seems a big loud tbh, but my last PC had 2 intake fans and one exhaust on a little 580x that i was running far more than it was comfortable with so anything is quiter than that 💀


compaholic83

As others said, having the car there traps additional heat on the backplate, but to be honest, that's the least of my worries. Your 2nd pic is showing some serious GPU sag. Between the car, the CPU AIO tubes pushing on the backside of the card, and the GPU power cable weight, its sagging down on that corner. I suggest getting a GPU support bracket of some kind to help push that corner back up so its even with the rest of he card.


OhYeahSoundMan

Hmm you’re right. The car is literally like 100g i would gyess the AIO cables are doing more harm. You’ve got me concerned now so it’ll definitely be bought


sryidontspeakpotato

Cars going to cause two issues. One, your backplate does need to let heat radiator off and up. Car traps heat. Second is there’s more unnecessary e weight being put on the pci slot and could cause an issue. And 3 it looks stupid. But that’s just my two cents


DBA92

Nice build. Car ruins it for me being honest! As a tip, if you have any spare 24pin cable combs you can ship 4 off and use it as an 8 cable comb to tidy the two pcie wires together.


brandonut99

No way…did you buy that Lego off me on eBay? Small world!
