The United States posted:Finally a DAN clone with mesh side panels I cannot wait for the IO version of this case, but calling it a DAN clone just because it’s a sandwich layout is kind of lame. It’s had a lot of thought put into it and the adjustable frame to fit 3-slot cards is such a good idea.

What do y’all do with your ATX stuff after downsizing? I’ll be doing a total system replacement but don’t really know what to do with the rest of the gear. Can you even get Z97 boards still? I could maybe see myself dumping my ATX board to have a secondary ITX system but not really sure what I’d use it for.

The NR200 / P honestly seems the way to go if you can find one, or the NCase M1 if price is no issue. I’m tempted to get one myself until the FormD case comes out but I can just throw an ITX board in my 750D for now.

I'm still kinda dubious of the FE style in sandwich cases tbh. I'd rather go for an AIB if I were going for case like that.

DrDork posted:You can't. The FE is the only card that's strictly sticking with the two-slot height limit. You might be able to wedge a ASUS TUF or EVGA XC3 in there, as they're only slightly taller, but any other AIB is far too big for that case. It's a 3-slot case. Hence the 3090 that fit in there. IDK what 3090 AIBs are like size wise but I should have clarified that I was talking about the 3080 in my post, my b.

I might be just dumb but I’ve been struggling to find comparisons of the NR200 and NR200P. Is there much of a difference in thermals between the two, because if not I might just buy whichever comes back in stock first.

The P comes with a tempered glass side panel (in addition to the normal vented side panel), riser cable for vertically mounted GPU setups, and an additional 120mm fan for the top exhaust I know, I’m wondering about the difference in thermals between the vented panel and the glass one.

SFF people, how do you handle multiple fans on an ITX board? The X570-I from ASUS has 3 headers (CPU, Pump, Chassis). I'm gonna go google this but is there anything BIOS related that might affect the pump header like having it run at 100% RPM, or is it just labeling and they're all the same. My next build is probably going to have 4-6 fans depending on space constraints, two on the heatsink, and two intake at a minimum. If I can, an extra 1-2 as exhaust fans.

abraham linksys posted:amazon isn't giving me that option in their little return wizard, probably because it's not a great move to leave packages sitting on your porch here, sadly. hopefully by the end of january we're either over our inevitable second wave of covid or so in-the-midst-of-it i can convince amazon to grant an extension, though I'd say go with the NH-U12A, and two bottom intake fans for an NR200 set up. Check the video below at 9:29, the H210 has a 165mm clearance so plenty of room for the U12A. If you're going with the H210 at the moment, set up two front intake fans for whatever airflow you can get out of those narrow side channels. Wouldn't really need an exhaust fan with the NH-U12A, as the gap between the two fans would probably be quite small and just introduce noise. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSUK7p9qQnU&t=569s

SFF thread, I don’t know if I want the ASUS Strix X570-I or the Crosshair VIII Impact. Both cases I want to get support miniDTX (NR200 definitely, FormD P1 likely). The Crosshair has some neat features, like the SO-DIMM.2 board throwing NVMe in the path of airflow for better cooling, better arrangement of power connectors and headers, Type-C front header cable and BIOS flashback (which will be handy for me not having a Zen2 CPU). It’s about a £90 price difference between the X570-I and the Impact, but I’m torn. The place I plan to get the board and CPU from said they’re happy to flash the BIOS before shipping, and both boards have the same VRM setup. I’m pretty  at the ASUS B550 board having the Type-C internal connector but not the X570.

Yeah I'd say the tempered glass panel you'd have to stick within the recommended height - the vented panel can flex a little but it's still hit or miss.

Tyro posted:Nice, HappyCapybaraFamily, Glad you got it working. My recommendation is if you’re happy with your current case, don’t change it, otherwise the NR200 is the no brainer when it comes to price. The main issue with SFF cases for a while has been that they’re cheap and crap, expensive and good, or in too many cases (like the Circle Pro), expensive and crap.
