Yes, we are not doing a 4.5L case yet. Soon I will show a full 4.7L aluminum caseHi, is the case FX mini 4.5L rev.4.5 available to order? Can't see it on the order page or has it now become the 4.7L? thanks
So I finally received my case this week. Just got around to building it yesterday and playing around with it today. Unfortunately a few of the screw holes aren't perfectly aligned but the the paint or powder coat finish on it is excellent. Also I found it difficult getting the the GPU installed. First i was using the Gigabyte GTX 1070 mini. When I finally got it in I felt like the it wasn't sitting flush in the case, parallel to the motherboard mounting plate. I swapped the 1070 for a GTX 1080 mini pulled from a gigabyte aorus gaming box eGPU. I found the install a little more easy though the same problem of the GPU not sitting flush persisted. I ended up using a zip tie and looping around a heat pipe and the top of the case to pull it "in" so it sat flush. Unfortunately when I installed all the panels the GPU fan touched the side panel and wouldn't spin. And it was only the lower portion of the panel that did this. I just ended up bending out the lower portion of the gpu side panel a bit and the fan now spins freely. Funny enough after I bent the panel a bit, the screw holes aligned much better. Honestly idk if this has to do with some defect in the construction of my case or just the incompatibility of that particular graphics card and the case. However I believe I saw another post on this forum or another where someone else used the same GPU in the 3.99L version of this case.
Despite everything though, I find the fit and finish of this case acceptable especially as this is my travel system and built from some left over parts. And honestly I'm very happy with my case and the build despite my issues. My buddy at worked loved it when I brought it in and showed it off. Though the quality is no where near on par with my Dan Case a4 or nfc s4m, I am tempted to get the slightly bigger 6L case to replace my main build that I have in the Dan a4. Anyway my novel is done and now pics of my bad cable management and specs:

How do you like such an all-aluminum case?
Hello @drunkwaffle where did you buy the cute WiFi antennas you're using? Can you provide a link?
I really want to replace the large antenna that came with my motherboard.... Thanks!
Edit: i just bought this https://www.ebay.com/itm/142833030506
and hope its the same with an RP-SMA Male connector.
As someone who has a sfx 6.7 and had a Dan v3, I ended up keeping the sfx. Dan’s case has the best possible quality I admit, but I still preferred the sfx. Mainly because the style and customizations @sergiiua does means most cases are distinct and can fit my personal taste better. I know he has had some complaints about certain builds but there is a large silent group you never hear from that are happy with his designs. I was glad to see you were able to make your case work and hope you continue to enjoy it.
Have we never had free shipping?
