That's a nice looking case. That review video makes me want to get this one right now, in fact. Very well displayed, which for whatever reason, seems hard to find reviews like this that are this thorough.

Yep, got the XC Ultra. Sorry about that.

Wow, I really like this option...but, the actual card doesnt line up with the back panel either where the video ports are.

This is def the GPU I want, and want to keep, so at this point I am willing to just change the case.

Hey guys. I have a Dan Case A4 and have absolutely loved it. One of the best purchases I've made since I'd been building PCs as a hobby. However, I did something dumb this past week. I upgraded my video card to am eVga RTX 2060 Super XC (from an eVga 1060), thinking it would fit... Imagine...

Just a general follow up question on cabling in the A4-SFX v3. I thought I had read somewhere to go with smaller cables than what comes with the Corsair SF600 PSU as standard. Can someone suggest the brand and type of these smaller cables?

Thanks for the feedback. I consider myself somewhat proficient in PC builds, but this SFF build is a first for me and it's been very helpful to hear feedback and read through these forums!

Interesting. I am kind of waffling again on the CPU. Recent reading and research I've done seems to suggest that an 8600K is actually quite capable for what I want to do (gaming) and the bump to the 8700K isn't worth the extra $$ (and potentially heat management) in this case. No pun...

What cooler would you suggest? Also, I have not liked the idea of delidding as i said, since I have zero experience with it. I've watched a few youtube videos. Let me ask this: do you or others on this forum suggest that it's really not that difficult? I definitely dont want to burn things...

Ok, so am modifying my build a bit. Instead of the core i-5 8600K I am going to go with the core i-7 8700K as a CPU. Do you all think it's still safe/acceptable to stick with the NH-L9i Noctua? I am not going to delid as I have zero experience with doing that and dont want to risk damaging...

Thanks!

Hello, newbie here to SFF... I just ordered the v3 and I am excited as it will be my first ever sff build attempt. I was hoping that someone (Dan, maybe??) would be able to advise on a cooling solution based on my planned parts list: DAN SFX v3 ASRock Z370-i Fatal1ty Mobo Intel Core i5 8600K...
