    Is the SG08 the upgrade to the SG13

    I've built in both those cases. While it's true that SG13 is more thought trough, the build quality is drastically reduced compared to the SG08. That metal front plate; it's plastic on the SG13 while it's a thick alu plate on the SG08. I'm not sure, but it seems the sheet metal is thinner on...

    GHOST S1 - When both size & performance matters

    Yeah, I guess :)

    GHOST S1 - When both size & performance matters

    While I prefer the aesthetics of a clean front, I feel I have to mention one point. In your original spec's you had USB and HDMI on the top front end, VERY useful for VR setups (e.g. HTC Vive). Omitting this will be a kick in the balls for people planning on a living room VR setup.

    DAN HSLP-48: A powerful sub 50mm heatsink

    I can't find the TY-100 fan for sale anywhere, unless together with the AXP-100. Does anyone know where to buy just the fan?

    DAN HSLP-48: A powerful sub 50mm heatsink

    The die is actually much harder than the ihs, even though it's brittle. This means that they are allowed to touch, as long as the load is somewhat evenly distributed.. There should always be a tim between them, which also helps to even out the load.

    DAN HSLP-48: A powerful sub 50mm heatsink

    Don't most de-lidders recommend to just omit the glue after de-lidding? The retention bracket should keep the IHS in place.. Besides, if you want to re-do the TIM, it will be much harder with glue?

    CCD MI-6: Performance in a 6.7L MIcrotower

    Oh yeah, I forgot about that part of the layout.. :rolleyes:

    CCD MI-6: Performance in a 6.7L MIcrotower

    How do people feel about sacrificing some of the CPU cooler height in order to keep total volume down? After reading reviews of sub 50mm coolers I feel this would be acceptable, especially with 2*92mm for top exhaust.

    GHOST S1 - When both size & performance matters

    If I'm using a short GPU (173mm), can I use that remaining space for HDD's? If my math is worth anything it should be ~130mm*144mm*46mm, and this could potentially hold a 3.5" drive. (Sorry if I missed in earlier in the thread...)

    Hutzy XS — Ultra Compact Gaming Case (<4L)

    It will be a compromise between turbulence noise with small clearance and air recirculation with larger clearance.. I guess a duct could reduce both recirculation and turbulence noise, if these were to become an issue. Anyway, it would be good with more tests :)

    Hutzy XS — Ultra Compact Gaming Case (<4L)

    I have been considering the same thing, but I have a feeling that this will not be relevant for very many before we see stx boards with full pci-e slot.. If that will ever happen I have no idea.

    CCD MI-6: Performance in a 6.7L MIcrotower

    I say remove the USB's, it should be easy enough to access the rear of the case..

    CCD MI-6: Performance in a 6.7L MIcrotower

    In my opinion you read the polls 100% correctly. It's looking gooooood

    Does the larger hole diameter in design D infer an asymmetric pattern? If only the pattern was a little nicer, it would be great with larger holes..

    CCD MI-6: Performance in a 6.7L MIcrotower

    Ok, so rma isn't really an option.. But don't throw it out, it could be lapped and come out fine.
