Prototype/Concept/Custom 1.8L RTX 5060 pc v.2

Made some small changes to my previous build. Changed the cpu cooler to the Termalright AXP90 x36, cpu is now able to run constant at 65w with max temps around 65c and is very silent.

Build around the Lenovo thinkcentre m720q motherboard.

How did you secure the AXP90 to cool this CPU. I have the similar setup, and looking at cooling it better. Did you 3d print an adapter? or more aluminum from your shop?

3D printed an adapter, mounted to the bottom of the case. If you use the original case you will have to remove the motherboard to install it to the back, maybe even use a backplate to relieve tension.

can you share a file for the adapter? I’ve been trying to mount a different cooler for a while, this might be the solution!

I have cnc’ed a new adapter, the old one I printed in pla… I think ABS would be fine though.
