3.5HDD are actually a lot bigger than you think compared to everything else. In one year, 500GB SSD should hit the $100 mark, and considering their reliability and speed, only the biggest of media consumers will consider using HDD. However, I did attempt to fit in a 3.5" in that space but it...
To further the discussion:
Is this designed specifically for the R9 Nano? Or ITX cards in general? (you were talking about HBM cards)
Yes. Currently, only the two tier of cards from AMD are HBM. The lower brackets, there are possible mini-itx versions of the same cards (R9 380, GTX...
This is a discussion for creating a mass production case at around 9L. The idea is that with HBM right around the corner, it is likely we will see the prevalence of very powerful mini-itx GPU in the future. However, at this moment, there are no cases that actually take advantage of this.
The...
If this case can support sfx-l, 3 2.5 drives without losing gpu clearance, comes in a nice matte industrial finish, I would buy it in a heart beat! Also, I don't mind the screws. They add a great industrial look to it that many other cases do not have.
Unless you caused a short or something, the power used depends on the load device. In the same way that a 100w bulb uses 100w when the source it is plugged into can handle 18000w. Only thing that can cause an over use of power is not having the right voltage. So if you accidentally plugged 12v...
I don't agree that the case should be upside down. It would likely require some real world testing to see the difference in cooling on right side up or upside down. Main issue with upside down is you need fairly tall feet to allow fresh air to come in, which causes the overall profile size of...
Why not make an air tunnel from the top of the case to the video card? I always imagined it would be easy to take a tall strip of foam around the the shroud of the video card so that it forces the card to only take cool air from outside and vent the hot air towards the sides of the case. If you...
