Anybody building a SFF 7900x+ASRock mini-ITX system?

Click that first link, the NCASE M1 one...
You can order from that exact page, and if ordered right now, estimated shipping date is this coming Wednesday...
But it will take a week or two to get to you...
That Lian Li TU100B is gonna choke your X299 build, and limit you to a single 120mm fan / radiator & ITX-sized GPUs...
The NCASE M1 will allow a 240mm radiator & full-length GPUs, it also has much more exhaust venting...
Thanks all! Why 18 cores? I am running number crunching problems that takes days and weeks and by parallellizing the code I get these times down a lot.
I will need the best water cooling possible to make the 7980XE deliver at a good clock speed! Therefore NCASE may be the right chassi.

I don't know. I will await reviews of the cooling 'problems'. Hopefully there will be something on the market.
Thanks Boil for you advice on NCASE! It appeared so well designed so I ordered one to use as the base for the sff workstation.
7980XE ordered and I am waiting for the mobo to come on sale.
Cant give you the exact date, but all i can say is that it is launching in the next month!
Edit: BTW, what cooler are you going to use?
Thanks A-K! I will start to put the best commercial AIO cooler I can find and see what temperatures it gives. I just got the NCASE and I am handing it over to my friend who does the building job.
I read on the web that somebody had overclocked 7980XE with a NZXT Kraken X52 water cooling unit with no temperature problems (http://www.techradar.com/reviews/intel-core-i9-7980xe)! I guess this must be one of the best coolers on the market (maybe a silly question, but I am new in this area). Is it possible to easily squeeze this cooler into an NCASE chassis with an ITX-mobo?
The size and the venting holes of NCASE M1 is not allowing for use 280MM AIO. I would strongly suggest you to use custom loop with the following configuration:
Koolance HX-CU720V because of its size and performance
Corsair ML 120 or GT Typhoon or the upcoming Noctua A series fan, which looks impressive IMO
EK-XRES 100 Revo D5 as i reccomend you going against DDC because of noise level. Plus your loop will not have much restriction.
Alphacool Eisblock XPX as it is best performer on LGA 2011( see this review)

Have you looked at the Compatibility spreadsheet...?!?
While I am a huge fan of the EKWB products, where is the pump/reservoir combo you mention going to fit in the M1 chassis...?!?
