I don't essentially have to keep the HDD in the box. I have a Linux server box for NAS, so I can kick the HDD out of my box if I wish. The other drive that must fit the case is an Intel 750 U2, and I believe that's a 15mm drive. BTW, my R9 nano doesn't have a back plate, and I don't remember...

Okay, I will buy both combinations and nuke them with the same 150W resistor. Let's see which one has lower thermal resistance to air. I can also run a numerical simulation with ANSYS AIM, but I think it will cost me more time than just hack up a test jig and do some real measurements.

Thank you. I'm trying to fit my U2 SSD and 4TB Seagate in the case.

Hi. Does S4 mini support 15mm thick hard drives? I plan to put my hardware from my current Elite 110 to an S4 mini, and I'm using 2 hard drives that are both 15mm thick.

Okay, so I won't hold any hope on R25 with stock fan. My new questions: Should I use an R25, remove its blower fan and replace it with a straight through 80mm*25mm fan (still slightly lower than 40mm), or should I go with a T318 with a 80mm*10mm fan (CUI CFM-8010-S13)? In other words, for the...

I guess I will have to use Dynatron R25. The Noctua one doesn't have their standard 2 screw mounting system at all, so I won't be able to use any LGA2011 adapters and I will have to build the entire mounting system from scratch, and I don't really want to do so. I can machine a steel mounting...

Thanks for the replies. So first, I have a GPU, and a quite powerful one, R9 nano. Also, I'm not going to get a server cooler. I've used a 1U server at my home when I was in high school. It's LOUD. I would like to know if Noctua's LGA2011 mounting kit will work on L9i. It says L9i can't be...

Hi all. First poster here, but a long time mini PC lover. I recently came across NFC S4 mini, and I really want to pre-order one. Before pulling the trigger, I would like to know a few things: 1. I know it's designed for up to 90W CPUs, and my 150W CPU certainly will be too much for it...
