I can admit that I am getting a bit flustered with HG Computers, but I'm mostly just anxious about this case. It's my first custom case purchase, and it's from a small company too! Gtek had said that he was doing pre-orders for the sale of the case. I assumed that by the time the two weeks had...

Annnd HG-Computers.eu is down. Again. I'm almost certain there won't be another sale for the OSMI case in the future if this keeps on happening.

I haven't received a confirmation either. I've been checking my bank account repeatedly just in case, but no changes have been made. This is my first direct bank transfer, so I'm a bit worried. Half this thread is about non-OSMI related things. I think it would be appropriate to make a...

Unfortunately, the sale for the OSMI case just ended about a week ago. You should contact Gtek if you still want a chance at obtaining the case. He's a staff member at HG-Computers and usually chimes in this thread every now and then for Q&A and reports on the sale.

There's a chance that it might not be 6 inches. The pictures definitely make it seem like it's around the length of 170mm, but some sources (ArsTech, Guru3D, WCCF) are reporting that it's going to be 190mm. Maybe they misinterpreted the info, but I would still wait for reviews and specs before...

So it's been two weeks, the OSMI sale should be over. Let's see how the shipping goes. Hopefully, I can get this case in my hands within a week.

You're in the same boat as me, ordered it three weeks ago. HG Computers won't ship it until they hit 50 orders and I'd hate to cancel my order anytime soon. :( Maybe someone should make a separate thread for the OSMI Case, instead of keeping it hidden in this thread? It could really help...

Is the website going to be up again anytime soon? No one wants the sale of the case to be halted right now just because the site is down. The sooner it's up, the sooner we can get our cases. :D

Hey Gtek, glad to see that the case is up on HG-computers. The cost of the case (yesterday), at 99 Pounds Sterling, seemed fair, but I noticed the jump to 115 Pounds today. Let's hope that the price doesn't go up any further, a headsup in the future would be nice. I have a quick question that I...

http://cdn.overclock.net/0/0b/0b897652_112a.jpeg Can't wait to see the dimensions for the R9 390X. It looks like it's more than 170mm (180-200mm?), so we might not see it in this case anytime soon. Maybe the R9 380X might fit, assuming it isn't a rebranded card and uses an HBM chip. Here's...

Well, elephant in the room. It's been almost 2 months and we have no response from gtek. I've got plans for a build coming up, and the only case I've found that's similar to the OSMI case is the Rosewill/Cooltek/Jonsbo Legacy V3+. It's 1.5 L (10.08 L) bigger than the OSMI case, but that's not...

The max GPU length is 170mm. You're limited to a few GPUs, but it's definitely worth it for the size of this case.

Just sent my PM. Thanks for your help, can't waIt to see what they look like on the inside! :D

Has anyone here noticed that we've hit more than 100k views? Edit: Woops, you guys already knew.

If you want to see the progress of the build, you'll need to head over to OC.net and check the thread.

Nice work, Dondan. Good luck with Lian Li, they'll definitely accept this. Can't wait to get my hands on this case! :D

Screes and deruber, I don't know how you guys could consider Zotac and Galax's GPUs as "Mini" or "ITX" branded cards. Sure, they're tiny, but they don't have the qualities of an ITX card. I reposted the Asus GTX 970 Mini topic in the Video Cards forum and someone made some comment about how...

Hey Dondan, I've got a quick question. How did you create the real physical model for the A4 that you have on your desk? Did you craft it yourself with your own hands, or did you send the 3D concept model of it to a metal shop? Also, what program did you use to create the 3D model? Sketchup...

Thanks for the links, Medeyer. I forgot to put up the ones I found on OC.net.

Well, if we expect the same things that we saw with the 760 Mini, then the only problem should be overclocking. All the other non-ref cards got a higher overclock, but not by much (for a few cards). There are other minor downsides are wattage and temperature. It uses just slightly more wattage...

Even though this GPU would be the best of the three in terms of cooling, performance, and silence, I wouldn't exactly qualify this as an "ITX" GPU. ITX/Mini GPUs aren't really an official form factor for GPUs, but rather a niche for the small form factor PC communities and consumers. Because of...

I recall JJ from Asus saying something about a closed design or something in a video regarding the GTX 670 Mini, though it's been years since that launched. I'll try to find it somewhere.

One of the drawbacks (regarding cooling) of the Gigabyte GTX 970 is that it has an open cooling design, so all the air just scatters around the case. It also doesn't have much ventilation in the I/O due to the multiple video ports. This is where the Asus DCU Mini shines. It has a closed design...

Oh my, that looks beautiful! Are you actually going to be using that fan as an exhaust or will you flip it?

The Scythe Kozuti should be fine with really any Haswell/Haswell Refresh CPU. It's actually on par with the Noctua L9i (according to Tom's Hardware). The only issue with it is that the bottom fan, which is the only fan (that is provided), is very loud. And it reaches 3200 RPM just to compete...

Yeah, read the comments above.

Woops, I mixed up the CPU clearance height for the A4 with the Lian Li PC TU100. I guess that wouldn't work. :( Well, I guess I'll just have to stick with my old L9i.

Has anyone said anything about the Prolimatech Samuel 17? It's 45 mm and can fit 120mm fans using a special bracket. It theres a big chance it might not fit with a slim Scythe fan (12.7mm), but it's worth a try. Here's a review of it on Tom's Hardware...

For this case (SFX version), you can fit up to a 295mm, dual slot GPU.

That thing's a real beauty. :D Good luck with your build. Can't wait to see it all assembled!

This sounds like a pretty good idea. I mentioned this idea in this thread before, but I assumed Runamok's idea was more "space efficient". The DC-board might be too tall for that section, but it's still an idea worth trying.

Runamok, have you checked the listings for the GTX 970 Mini? I just checked a bunch of websites. Most of them are on backorder/sold out (Amazon, too), some are still taking preorders. The only one I found that is currently selling them is Newegg...

Holy shrimp, that spacing between the DC board and the GPU is scary. Makes me a little bit worried about the GTX 970 being 171mm+. Do you really have to take off the GPU IO plate for the GPU to fit it in? Also, if you're taking suggestions for a CPU cooler, I'd recommend the Noctua L9i. I'll be...

Nice pics. That HDPlex board definitely looks tight in there. Hopefully, that GPU will still fit into this build. How did you mount the DC board? Also, have you considered using an M.2 drive? If you're only using one drive in your build, you should ditch the HDD hangar and go for an M.2 SSD so...

So excited! :D Will you be drilling holes into the case (for GPU/CPU ventilation)? Also, what parts do you plan on using?

Have you thought about using a Lian-Li PC TU100? It's the smallest itx case with a handle that I know of.

I was planning on getting a Xeon E3 1231 and a GTX 970. I don't plan on undervolting. The 970 alone takes up 170-185 watts @ load. I'll just stick with the Hdplex DC board for now. I won't be building this for a few weeks or months due to financial issues, so my build might change a bit over time.

I'm thinking of putting a DC power board into this case. I was planning on mounting it here (http://i.imgur.com/JporH3U.jpg). If I use a motherboard like an Asus H97I-Plus, it should probably work since it doesn't have a heatsink on the opposite side of the PCIe slot like its Z97 brother. I was...
