Awesome! They all look great

Can't wait to get this case and see your hard work in person. I'll have to break out my old 980 for my build log to test how effective the full coverage venting is. I would imagine it to be much better than most of the other heat trapping cases on the market. What color combinations did you guys...

I really love this case. For such a simple layout you have really over-engineered the design. You did good providing full venting coverage, especially in the front and bottom. Features like the big screws, psu rubber bumper, movable pci slot, modular back plate, and inverted or normal...

Would it be possible to special order a Mini rev4 at 102x207x190 for use with g-unique 300w internal. I prefer the Mini styling over the Flex. Thanks

Yeah this has to be in works! With hdplex 300w or guryhwa's upcoming dc psu would be so perfect. Can either be mounted vertically under gpu or flat like flex-atx.

Any pictures/renders of the vertical stand? I would prefer to keep the case vertical if purchased. Allthough, orienting the case flat under a monitor stand might be the best for sff.

You could also make a simple bracket for the pcie extension. Most extensions that use short pcbs for the gpu side have holes for screws. Additionally you could put a wide screw at the fork on the end of the pcie bracket for more strength

That's a very unique layout you designed, but i don't really like that a lot of the volume is stored in the width. Generally i prefer the case to be stacked vertically for less two dimensional volume (length x width). I definitely prefer the layout in your profile picture. It would be possible...

Hmm, i wonder if this case would fit. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FXYIGBS/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?tag=slicinc-20&ascsubtag=5061aa125a4a11e6a3ed82b003bfdcdb0INT&ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A17MC6HOH9AVE6

Also available for preorder at ShopBLT for $400. They have listed 200 incoming stock scheduled for an ETA of 8/3/2016 http://www.shopblt.com/item/gigabyte-gv-n1070ixoc-8gd-geforce-gtx-1070-pciex16/gigmbd_gvn1070ixoc8gd.html#Availability

Pattern B would be a winner if the triangles alternated, just the the 10xx FE cards: http://images.bit-tech.net/content_images/2016/07/nvidia-gtx-1060-review/1060fe-6b.jpg Anyway, i vote for Design A

Other options include parkerizing/black oxide, it is a bit simpler than anodizing but is no more durable. Also bead/sand blasting is an option for a silver or grey finish and is likely to be cheaper than the black alternatives. There is also cerakote, which is a baked ceramic coating and is very...

Any thoughts on baked powdercoating as a finish? It's more scratch resistant than anodizing as its a much thicker coating and is much better looking as well.

With you on that one. I was able to take my 4790k down to 55 watts by underclocking to 3.6ghz with .93volts. I lost 10% performance, but also lost 50% max wattage at the same time.

I use a kill-a-watt p4460 to see system wattage. Also, i have my 4790k underclocked and undervolted. The stock voltage for 4790k is 1.0875v at 4.0ghz and it actually uses closer to 110watts. I'm using .93volts at 3.6ghz currently. My cpu is maxing out at around 55w according to hwinfo, and...
