    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    The Linus Tech Tips video with the DanCase v2 is up on their float plane platform. I'd expect about 2 pages worth of people coming fairly soon asking where and when they can buy it.

    Many people intentionally leave it out for better thermals.

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    I bought a 15.6 inch 4K from china like 2 months ago. I REALLY like it and it matches my DansCase really well. They have a 13 inch 1440p as well. After taxes, shipping and the company agent service YOYbuy it cost be 390$. I plan on making a USB-C to DC power adapter at some point so I can just...

    MSI has a 1080ti with USB-C. I have a feeling the next generation of GPUs will start to use USB C more often.

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    On the German hardware forums there is a thread with a step by step guide on modifying right angle power connectors like this If you are the tinkering type and want to eliminate any possible future bulging issues.

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    Extremely thorough write up and your system looks great! There is no fan on your motherboard just the three that you have listed. When you checked each did you do it with the cover on or off? I'd recommend both ways, and then stopping each fan separately with the computer still on to find the...

    You can spray paint the riser whatever color you would like.

    You could always dremel your own. I am thinking about that myself but want to see what my thermals are after I stop being lazy and finish my build.

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Dan made such a great product people want to copy it because they can't think of anything better. If people want to buy a shittier version of the A4 let them, it's clear how much better the A4's quality is and I am happy Dan is focusing on his future...

    Judging off those pictures the pearl would look WAY cooler imo.

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    There is no faraday effect with this case. I cannot remember exactly but somewhere in the 279 pages here a user reported that he was using antenna inside the machine just fine.

    Higher base clock, options for the future, better resale, options to under clock it to name a few reasons.

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    GPUs TIM are typically good and you wont see enough of an improvement in temps overall for it to be worth it. As well as a large amount of the heat tends to come from the VRMs which typically use thermal pads not paste.

    DAN HSLP-48: A powerful sub 50mm heatsink

    Pedrofan I think you would get more/better input on the actual a4 thread not this one which is about an air cooler. That being said honestly the reason people use water cooling isn't because its inherently better/more efficient than air cooling (in endurance testing) its because you can take the...

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    A 960 Evo is plenty fast for me. Yes you can run a raid 0 with multiple M.2s but honestly the price of them isn't low enough for me to want to raid them as well adding additional points of failure to a system. Some people might want dual m.2s and to that I would totally encourage them to get the...

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    I got the Fatality personally. I don't care for the RGB tax on the Strix, and don't really need 2 M.2 slots so I saved 30$ and am very happy with TB3 USB 3.1.

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    Sadly I think they are the cheapest option for custom length cables. To be honest I don't even want my cables sleeved as I just don't care, I just want them the exact size to maximize space for some 100 mm fans in the top of the case. As far as I can tell unless you want to make your own, they...

    DAN HSLP-48: A powerful sub 50mm heatsink

    I've been looking into possibly modifying a T318 for a 7700k LGA 1151 socket. Someone from the Sentry thread set up a R15 and was geting great cooling numbers. I was looking specifically at the Z270 Fatal1ty itx mother board and without having exact measurements it looks like if I (or anyone...

    Just to clarify meccabolix are all of these tests with the IO shield off? Nullbnx, how confident are you that the 7700k delid was done correctly? Maybe you are not making great contact with the IHS?

    DAN HSLP-48: A powerful sub 50mm heatsink

    Hopefully some more shopping around for manufactures will yield better results. I honestly would have no issue buying the cooler with no fan as I already have a few I bought for my specific mods and plans for the A4. I don't know if most people would want to purchase a fan separately though. If...

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    That's very thoroughly tested with interesting findings, I have been playing around with dropping my PSU around 32mm (1.25 inches) or even more if I remove the SSD tray entirely (would justify me getting that 960 Evo :rolleyes:) myself. I am thinking the TY-100 might have enough juice to affect...

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    Since I already have my A4 and don't need another I wont mess with the survey with my option but I would have to agree with Joe here. Promising something in the future is just asking for more head ache and complications. I would think your best best is to just do another Kickstarter. It's clear...

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    That's lucky, any chance you don't need that second TY-100? I'm searching for a 100mm pwm fan with no luck other than buying the AXP-100 and using the TY.

    DAN HSLP-48: A powerful sub 50mm heatsink

    Looking at the chart a page back I wonder if three 8mm heatpipes might be better than four 6mm pipes. If you happen to get on a call again with some engineers it might be a good question to ask. The difference would be a .5 mm increase in "Typical Flattened Height", an increase of only .3mm in...

    I'm really looking forward to the prototyping phase. I'd really love to see if with some modding how a Prolimatech Ultra Sleek 12 would fair on this full copper design. Can't wait to get this in a A4!

    Just got my Dan Case delivered in New Jersey. I would expect the rest of the USA cases to be delivered by this weeks end. Can't wait to see what cool builds people post.

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    Why not just make the cooler install from the bottom. I know most every one does it from the top for ease of installation but this is basically a SFF only case and I tend to think most of us would rather more fins (better performance) as apposed to making the very rare situation of taking off a...

    Don't forget to take some time off after shipments. Don't want DansCase to suffer if you get burnt out after the rousing success of the A4.

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    I'm probably going to buy something like the newly introduced AOC I1601FWUX and get a custom made bag with foam cutouts to take it all traveling. Toss in a 60% mech keyboard and a small mouse and I'll have the ability to be fully mobile without having to sacrifice pretty much anything.

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    I think the revised rounded front end looks better than the test samples and I completely agree some simple black thumb screws would keep the sleek aesthetic over the screws that are in the samples. I don't think I would really want a windowed version before I update my hardware as temperatures...

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    I don't suppose anyone who pre-ordered the Black A4 has decided they don't want/need it anymore? I've been checking the forum pretty much daily since I saw the LTT video and fell in love with this case. I'm to impatient to wait for UK Overclockers to get them in stock. I already started buying...
