    NCASE M1: a crowdfunded Mini-ITX case (updates in first post)

    I saw those posts and tried looking up some reference 7970 temps, but they varied quite a bit and was impossible to compare to. They also didn't use Furmark for many of them. An open-air reference with all else identical might be an easy way to see if there is sufficient airflow around...

    I have never seen DI-NOC in person, but I know it is possible to get real carbon-fiber veneer applied on aluminum. In fact, most of the carbon fiber 'look' you are used to seeing is from a final sheet of cosmetic CF, as the underlying, structural CF can look pretty messy. Just another idea...

    Looking for a Mini-ITX case

    Anyone know if a 3.5" drive could fit if it was rotated 90deg and moved as far forward in the case as possible? I am wondering if this will let me use both both the Noctua L9i and a 3.5" drive.
