I have built in some SFF cases before but not with this case and I must say that I am very happy that I got this case. Don't mind the dust/dirt as I am deployed and it is quite hard to keep all of that out in this thing. My components are i9-9900k (5.0Ghz, 1.275v) Asus z390-i EVGA 2080 XC...

Unless you take off the heatsink, or mod it, the c14s does not work with the rog z390i. The heatsink is too big since the c14s can only be installed one way with the case. when i get home to the states i plan on cutting a hole in the heatsink to fit the heatpipes.

Now of course after I had already pre-ordered the case I can put in the address correctly. I guess there was some compatibility issue with my phone at the time I was trying the address. Hopefully I can change the shipping address on a completed order already.

I just ordered this case last week, hoping for a quick ship time. I couldn't figure out how to get the SFFLab website to ship to my FPO address in Africa so I am forced to ship it home in the states then pay more shipping and wait 2 more weeks for it to arrive to me :(

It actually became available twice for each color. I missed the first one but worked faster the second time.

Just pre ordered mine a few hours ago when some became available. Now to play the waiting game. My build is a 9900k with a 2080 and a 4tb 860 Pro. The next generation graphics card is when I'll buy the top tier card.

I am deciding to go with the ncase m1 with this first itx build. I will surely get a dan case sometime in the future though since I love how small the thing is.

I can't wait until the next round opens up. I already have my parts coming in the next 2-3 weeks and will just have it all built on the side waiting for the case. Everyday I check the website waiting for first opportunity to order it.

Does anyone here know if SFFLab ships to FPO addresses? I just found out that Overclockers UK does not so the Dan A4 and Asetek 92mm AIO I ordered just got refunded so now I am out a cooler and a case for some time. I already ordered my other parts so a Dan A4 is pretty much the only case I want.

I wonder if it'd be better to just get a 8086K and delid it and use a copper ihs while still being cheaper than a 9900k.

Okay that makes a lot of sense with the TIM and IHS. I remember the Ivy Lake and it's heat issues, it's the main reason I never owned that generation of CPU. I have some money to spare so even if a 9900k limited to 95W is even just slightly better than a stock 9700k I find it to be worth it...

After some more research I did find that yeah the 9th gen CPUs stock means it is soldered than the crap they used to use on the older generations. I suppose for now I will see if my 9900k does well with the 92mm AIO. I will very likely have to go into the BIOS and limit the TDP to 95W but...

I am fairly new to the terms deliding and solder and such so could you explain what solder means for a processor. I assume it just means a stock processor.

I just bought the V4.0 earlier today. All well. I am looking to install a Netgear AC1900 adapter internally with a USB key A to type A adapter. I will likely just use 3M double sided tape to attach the adapter to the back of the PSU and hopefully it all works just fine.. Once I get my case I...

So I am about to build in this case and I am wondering what some of you guys have had experience with deliding CPUs for the cooling for this case. I am looking at the i9-9900k but I plan on deliding it and using a Copper IHS from Rockit Cool with Kryonaut thermal paste. I know liquid metal...
