So, it is time to make my own tiny built. Having looked at itx cases I am between to Realan cases with 34 and 54 (probably + 10mm in each case, not sure wet) of space for the cooler.

After searching, the best cooling options seems to be the classic noctua NH-L9i or a cooltek lp-53 with noctua's fan. However, after seeing and a video from NFC systems ( ) showing that an inferior (on open bench) cooler whith an other fan on top worked better it got me into thinking in a different way.

What if I put a bigger NF-A12x15 on top of the case instead of or with a fan on the cooler or even the beast NF-A12x25 on the top of the case or something like that? What are your opinions and suggestions on this??
