Item 1: D.type 35 cm riser cable Item 2: D.type 30 cm riser cable Condition: New/Unused I bought these from highflow.nl to fit in a custom PC case but I never followed through in manufacturing the case so never used these cables. Cable type and details can be found here...

Photos look very good and enticing Michael. So excited to see the revisions. Pardon the silly question. You mentioned no support for HDPlex, but I hope this doesn't mean we cannot find our own means for securing the HDPlex units? Again, great overhaul.

On another random note, I started this design a while back but never followed through, I am so glad I will be able to firstly, have such a small form factor that I so wanted from a while back, secondly, have almost exactly the same layout as Michael's.

Thank you very much for your information, I will look it up. As I mentioned above, I provided wrong information previously. I actually have HDPLEX 300W AC-DC power supply + 400W HiFi DC-NanoATX unit. The dimensions of the 300W Power supply is in-fact 151.4(D) x 62 (W) x 41 (H) mm as provided...

This made me rethink on what parts I had. Turns out I actually had 300W AC-DC which HDPLEX don't have available on their site now. Only in their 10 years history can I find some reference image.

Hi Michael, I have both the HDPLEX 400W AC-DC (Ver1.0) and HDPLEX 400W HiFi DC-ATX (older version) and whilst the mounting holes I don't mind if they are incompatible, I can find a solution potentially, would they fit in the Velka 3? Are they both compatible size-wise? I viewed OptimumTech's...

Hi, this is a very long overdue reply, but I got the HDPlex 400W AC-DC adapter and HDPlex 400W Hi-Fi DC-ATX power supply. I am not knowledgeable to give an intelligent oversight on it but it's completely passive and depending on the design, comparatively flexible to flex atx psu. I never ended...

I received mine today, living in England. Thought it might be of information. Looks really good.

Thank you very much for this information. I required exactly this but I was unable to find it anywhere and had lack of experience to know of it. Really appreciate it

The Graphics Card is definitely a lot longer than the reference model I was using. I will definitely have to consider that. Thank you very much for your input.

I cannot guarantee 100 % how much the clearance riser cable at the bottom would require but I have roughly estimated for it here. I decided to have the panels perforated as suggested with 2mm clearance between the panels and the fan. As things goes, I am still iterating it and probably change...

hmmmmm that is interesting. so the "standoff" would be the actual chassis with the outer panel as a back-plate to the motherboard as how a CPU cooler has a backplate? With the vibration I am assuming from the CPU cooler? How much would it affect in general? Up until now I had decided to use...

I really appreciate your input in this matter. That is something I kept thinking about, rejecting the idea of using just electrical tape as it wouldn't prevent those sharp leads from preventing shorting. No matter, I am going to continue ideating and shortly enough post about my success or...

YES!! without standoffs. I am trying to have minimum clearance between the tray and the motherboard so I was looking if that was possible, So currently from my research I am under the impression that non-conductive material is required for that. So far cardboard or vinyl wrap could be a...

Hi everyone, Is it possible to mount motherboard directly onto metal casing with anti-static plastic sheet in between? With back-plates for cooler and m.2 SSD, there would be large cut-outs on the case. Or for the matter just cardboard sheet? I remember watching the STX 160 disassembly video...
