haha yeah was just gonna write exactly the same thing

Every time I unplug it live, I hear that sizzle that says "you have a 0.1% chance of getting electrocuted every time you try this." Oh, I didn't know that you can hold the power button for 10 seconds.
But, if you want a strong graphics card like a GTX680 or titan, you are looking at 10.5" or so. Such a card will need a psu capable of 38a. Per EVGA recommendations. can find no sfx or modular units capable of 38a that are <140mm long. I don't know if I am comfortable with one of the Silverstone sfx 450w units. They advertise 37a, and that might do, but the psu may need to run at max and be noisy.
Guys does anyone think this might fit with slight modding of the case? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...a&cm_sp=&AID=10440897&PID=3891137&SID=rewrite
It has the width of basically an ITX board and a length of 8.9 inches, with new mounting holes in the case it might work?
I am not looking to turn this into a debate that the NCASE should be for mATX, as I am buying this for an ITX build myself - but I thought it might be interesting to pose the question with this board.
Thanks!
No doubt there are ways around the inconvenience. If you do not have a os running, as when booting from a dvd, then you need a manual eject option. My take is why not eliminate whatever issues when you can?
What is the most gpu a SFX unit can drive? Could it push a oc'd 690? 7990? That's the only thing holding me up on deciding if I will do another itx build...
The eject button is not in a standard location across different slim drives. As was mentioned, software eject will be the primary method.1. How does one eject the dvd from the drive? Certainly removing the top panel is possible, but not really practical. If the position of the eject button is standard on slim drives, we need something there.
I'd think so - better than a regular 5.25" ODD does, even. Slim drives are designed for notebooks, which get tossed around and have to operate in all kinds of conditions a desktop wouldn't be subject to. There are also already desktops with vertical slim drives (e.g. Falcon NW Tiki).Does a slim dvd drive operate properly in a vertical position?
And ruin the looks? Never!Perhaps the best solution would be to have an opening wide enough to accommodate either a slot loading or tray loading drive.
~200mm.How long can a graphics card be that will not impact a psu that is > 140mm long?
As others have said, the SilverStone 450W SFX PSUs can handle pretty much anything short of a dual GPU card. Your options if you want more and need to use an ATX PSU are 1.) mod the cables, 2.) stuff the cables and learn to live with it, 3.) mini-DTX with 2nd slot PCIe x16 (not great options currently).if you want a strong graphics card like a GTX680 or titan, you are looking at 10.5" or so.

Something very similar was brought up a while back with some ASUS boards. It's really borderline whether it would fit.Guys does anyone think this might fit with slight modding of the case? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...a&cm_sp=&AID=10440897&PID=3891137&SID=rewrite

No, that sizzle is just a small arc created from the gap that initially forms when the contacts inside the plug separate. There is exactly zero chance of you being electrocuted by pulling the plug out of the computer and that sizzle is 100% harmless and NOT a cause of any damage or concern what so ever.
The motherboard standoffs are 8mm, so I think it should fit.I'm not sure if it has been asked, but would a msata drive on the back of the motherboard fit okay in the case. IE: does it look like there would be problems mounting a msata drive on the underside of an Asrock Z77E-ITX? Furthermore, would the slightly thicker than normal msata 480GB msata drive from Mushkin fit?
Well, the renders aren't really a good guideline at this point. The reservoir (Tecnofront Nano) is no longer available, and the pump/waterblock (Swiftech Apogee Drive II) isn't likely to be tested for fitment.Hey guys, been looking at this sweet case for some time and plan to rock this thing with a Titan and an OC CPU. However I was wondering if you are able to tell me what the reservoir/pump was you used in the photos thanks.

What you might consider instead is the Swiftech H220 all-in-one, which I have tested and confirmed that it does fit in the case. It's not a sealed unit, unlike the CLCs from Corsair etc., so it's possible to expand the loop for GPU cooling.
Is it possible to cool a Radon 7970 (or Nvidia equal) or is that too much heat for it to handle?
Possible to add a radiator more? (both in cabinet and can the pump handle it?)
Necere, do you think you could give me the distance from the fan mount to the SFX PSU plate? Trying to see what kind of AIO watercooling would fit in the 2nd fan slot.
Distance from the fan bracket to the SFX PSU is 85mm
Here you go
6) The Silverstone ST45SF-G will be enough to power any single GPU setup, excluding the Titan, and have plenty of overclocking headroom.
@WiSK: Perhaps I should have been more clear, I meant that a 450W PSU would be enough to power any overclocked single card, but not an overclocked Titan. A stock Titan will be fine (I was actually thinking of forum members here when I wrote that). Hence point 5.
right now i have a 680 FTW+ 4gb, h80i, 3770k, and a 450w sfx.
when i switch into this case i will be selling the 680 for a titan (any takers?) and will probably have to change out the h80i.
I was interesting in what you guys would think would be the best replacement for it. my main concern is silence. I was thinking a swiftech 220 or a noctua D14. please share your thoughts.
