The maximum PSU lenght with 2 x 340mm video card is 6.7". I haven't checked, but you can fit most ATX power supply.
10" x 10" motherboard
You can possibly put it in (it fits on the tray) but, without doing the physical test, I would assume you'll have to cut a small piece on the side of the tray that might be in the way. It depends how it sits, so it's hard to say.
Is the 6.7" inclusive of the bend in the cables needed?
I would think you don't have to bend the cables but man, with a 6.7" PSU and a 340mm video card, the cable management is not going to be fun. With the bend in the cables (modular PSU, small cables), I would place a limit at 6.5", depending on how well you can bend your cables.
More like 500-900W (80+ PSU). Which is generally enough for a crossfire. Although it might take most of the 900W for a crossfire of 5970.Yeah, the 160mm PSUs should do ok then.I would think you don't have to bend the cables but man, with a 6.7" PSU and a 340mm video card, the cable management is not going to be fun.

Of course, and I don't promise anything, we might gain another 0.1" before production starts.
But this is a Micro ATX case, and we didn't plan for 6.4-7.0" PSU ranging from 900W to 1200W or more.
The overall width of the MB tray is 10.079".
And we are going to hit the $159 mark, with very little margins.
DA BOX is designd to fit the 6.3" (160mm) long PSU with any video cards (up to 345mm long). 6.3" covers most PSU out there under 1000W. As I said, we'll optimize the case just before we start production, and maybe gain a 1/10".I'm not sure what impact that will have on compatibility, altought there might be some PSU out there 6.4" long. As stated previously, you can go all the way with a 6.5" PSU but you'll have to change the front fan from a 92mm to a 80mm (or remove it). And finally, in theory, the PSU area is 6.8" long (before touching the GPU PCB). The longest PSU I have on hand is about 6.9" long (would have to check again) and sitting unused because of its volume and weight. I like my 6.3" corsair much better
.
and id take any version, do you have a uk distributor i could pre order from or even plans to ship to the uk?Also interested in this, is the layouts and plans done for the mini mobile case?We need the mini-itx case to come out
Going pretty good. Takes lot more work than people realize sometimes. I'm working on the forums and database stuff right now. I'm thinking to launch everything January 1 but not promises...at least have news up and running for the CES stuff.
You should send me a confidential picture or drawing"I've looked at every possible scenario and I don't know how you much the SG05 and SG06 in size with getting a full length PSU in there"
You'll see, I promise that you will love the new layout for the mini ITX case we designed.
For fans, right now, we were able to fit comfortably 2 x 120mm and 2 x 80mm. A full ATX PSU. And the 5870 that goes with it ;-). As far as size go, we are pretty close to the SG05 (we are slightly less in volume but it can always change after the production modification). It is a very cool case that will definitively have a LOT of people raving about. I'm putting a lot of effort to have a very polished design. The objective would be to have a extremely functional case with beautifully lines to go with it. After all, I'm sure you want your MOM to look her best.
I can't wait for the SFF store to be open again!
I'd love to see it fit together because 11L is hard to match. I suppose you could with a slim DVD drive..just have a long case with short height and narrow with the video card pressed up against the side using a vent. But I dunno I'll be looking for your build Craig.It's nice to see that attention to detail in this case. SFF is definitely the future, and I'm happy to have been playing with small rigs for the past several years. This box will be no different. I'm looking forward to hacking one up...
Ha! I guess it was matter of time before you see this and have plan for this!
Mattinv,
If you want someone to build a PC and get your case noticed, Craig is your man!
I vote you to give Craig a free case and show everybody every possibility of this case!!!
Thanks liquid cool, I really appreciate your trust in my work. I'm confident you won't be disappointed. Now, I will just focus on getting it prototyped as fast as possible so that everybody that's waiting on it can make their decision.
