If you look at the static pressure of the noctua 90mm and 120mm thin fans the 90mm is higher i think. Unless you want a fan to act over a larger area, like Dan's cooler, the smaller 90mm fans are just as good if not better. Air will always try to find the easiest path and that is not though a heatsink, most of the air will flow around the sides of the heatsink. That's my theory anyway.
It stabilised at 68 degrees at 2500rpm after not long, I ran it for over two hours to confirm it wasn't slowly increasing. Ambient temperature was 23 degrees. I will do a final test and add it to the Google spreadsheet soon. Very happy overall
No problem, yea I think the Ryzen chips are a great fit for the Dan case. I suspect that the L9a would even cope with a 1800x, hopefully someone will try it! I suppose I could overclock too simulate an 1800x but I I want to do some gaming now that my system is setup nicely!
While I don't recall if anyone has actually used it in their case yet, It should fit with a few caveats: You will have to mod the case to allow the power connectors to come in through the front of the case behind the front panel, and because of this, you will probably not be able to mount an ssd behind the front panel.
Thanks, I had to use internet explorer to download it, edge was blocking it somehow... I'm sure Chrome would work, although it didn't on my phone, but I like to keep my system with as little software as possible. I'll post some final results in the next couple of days.
Will there be another kickstarter soon ??? i cant believe i missed it
OK, I know most people go team blue and green, and I know most people bought the black case. But I can't be the only silver case owner who ordered a window kit that can't wait for the brushed aluminium Limited Edition RX Vega (assuming price/performance is reasonable):
I am afraid Vega is bad for SFF due to it's power consumption. Right now it looks like it'll compete with 1080, it's 295 Watt vs 180. The difference is huge for SFF build. If you want to go with Vega - you'd better wait for Vega Nano, I assume it'll be around 200 WattOK, I know most people go team blue and green, and I know most people bought the black case.

I fully agree power is an issue, however, it will be pulling the same as most aftermarket 1080ti, 980ti and fury X cards and I've seen plenty of those in the Dan A4.
Can we put this in Sentry and water cool it?

The chip & architecture seem capable of ludicrous overclocks, or undervolting, depending on your priorities (based on FE reviews and promise of better power management as drivers catch up to this platform). I'd speculate (generally) a blower card is thermal rather than VRM limited, especially in this arch. All the deep dive / teardown power section reviews will come with benchies when the press embargo date arrives. Tough being patient, especially when you know the brushed aluminum ones are limited edition ...but most of us are waiting a while longer for the SFXv2 case regardless
