*As the owner of the other 1/2 CARC mini I can tell you that the texture and quality of that CARC paint is amazing. If anyone is seriously considering getting this than I would highly recommend it. If anyone has questions or concerns I'm happy to answer as the owner of the other case.

I'm running the GELID 120mm x 15mm fan on my L9a, but it would work with L9i too. Installing directly over the Noctua heatsink requires a 92mm-120mm plastic adapter, custom screws, and DDR clearance so it is dependent upon where your RAM is on your board and if you have VLP sticks. You may get...

Definitely not.

My 9.5mm laptop blower fan with M.2 fit with some room to spare (I ended up not using it though) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N036QBF/?tag=theminutiae-20

*There is one critical area where DVI-D is king. Those who want to play FPS games at the highest refresh rates. I'm running a 144hz 1080p monitor and wouldn't use anything but a DVI-D cable for my application. I built my entire budget system around running the games I enjoy at 100+ FPS and this...

Noctua just replied to my email: "thank you for contacting Noctua! We'll release a AM4 Mounting-Kit for our NH-L9a in Q2 2017. Kind regards, Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Noctua support team"

A big thank you to Santcum Sleeving for hooking me up with a custom 16cm all black thin 24Pin cable for the HDPLEX and my S4 mini. I also had my power cable custom sleeved in tan and black to match my build. I was planning on having more cables done in desert tan but space was an issue with my...

The yellow highlights and checkered pattern on this "Racing" board would be perfect for a "Crazy Taxi" themed build.

*MSI just released an AM4 Grenade.... in Micro-ATX. Great entry level board perfect for my needs but in the wrong form factor. https://smallformfactor.net/forum/threads/s4-mini-190-desert-scout.1578/

I'm using the inno3D 1060 6G and I love it. (It's missing from your list) Outside of the EU the in-cart price is cheaper. Shipping is fast and it is an option. https://www.overclockers.co.uk/inno3d-geforce-gtx-1060-compact-x1-6144mb-gddr5-pci-express-graphics-card-gx-06b-in.html My build...

Regarding the HDPLEX, I have a spare HDPLEX 250w + a 240w power brick + a HDPLEX PCIE cable (the longer original version). I'm willing to sell these as a package at a discount but they are only available to an S4 mini owner or to someone who has one on order. (PM me if interested)
