Update: All the hardware is here now. Just waiting for an AM4 upgrade kit for the NH-L9i to arrive, which should be tomorrow or at the start of next week. The testing configuration will consist of: CPU: R7 1700 CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-L9i Motherboard: Asrock AB350 Gaming ITX (it's the newer one...

I'll be setting up a test config (waiting for new hardware to arrive) to run some tests, especially in regards to CPU/GPU/Storage temperatures. Hopefully the PC components arrive by the end of this week.

I'll have to measure the temperatures during a benchmark with standard hardware, as the config shown above is with a Xeon E3 and an older generation GPU. The holes do match up though!

So, I've been away for a while due to real life obligations that had me travel, so the prototype was produced in my absence and I couldn't get pictures until now. So, without further ado, here is the first prototype iteration: Let me know what you think!

Sounds like a good idea. I'll look into that! I do wonder about the size of the cutout. Something that fits the scythe big shuriken maybe?

Aside from the differences in layout and aesthetics, it's the material used. The Sentry is constructed from ~1mm thick steel while the Netcase is constructed from ~1.58mm thick aluminum. Both cases are based on the steam machine prototype layout, which is also used in some commercially...

The corners of the case have been redesigned to smoothen out the sharp edge: I'll hopefully have the prototype ready this week.

Memes aside, is that a good cooling solution?

Sounds very nice! Overclockers delivers to Germany so I'm looking forward to it!

Sounds great! I'm thinking of either a tall aircooling heatsink or possibly a 92mm/120mm AIO. Probably the former though. Will modified rear panels be directly available?

If I mod the Lz7 for using a G-Unique, could I fit in a tall CPU heatsink?

You mean @guryhwa?

I checked out the CustomMOD mini, and it has a lot of overlap with my initial idea. So I'm thinking of expanding the functionality. My idea is to have an open front with modular front panels that offer variable clearance. E.g.: A snug one for shorter GPUs and Pico/G-Unique PSUs. A medium one...

Premise I've been toying with this idea for a while now, and wanted to know what the community thinks about it. Basically, what if we took the S4 Mini and gave it a Dancase style layout, aka having the CPU and GPU coolers facing different sides for intakes while connected via a riser cable...

Good to hear! If it can accommodate the 1080ti mini, I'm buying!
