The next generation of Li-Heat risers looks great. What kind of lengths are available for them? I think 20 or 25cm would be ideal for the case.

Test Environment & Equipment:
- GPU: Zotac 1050 Ti Mini
- M/B: MSI H110i Pro
- OS: Win10
- Games: Overwatch
- Benchmark: Catzilla 720p

Results without riser:
- Bus Interface: x16 3.0
- Overwatch, fps: 161
- Catzilla, run #1: 14764
- Catzilla, run #2: 14766

Results with riser:
- Bus Interface: x16 3.0
- Overwatch, fps: 159
- Catzilla, run #1: 14796 (record :))
- Catzilla, run #2: 14718

Verdict: excellent, recommended!

I'm coming in all late about it, but wow, you're getting over 144fps on Overwatch with a 1050Ti? What's your resolution and settings?

Also, your case inspired me to make my own design for a similar case, that will fit a 150-200W internal PSU (Mean Well). I have 1 square foot of metal that I can't really use on anything else but I can use it to make 3 pieces of the case.

@CC Ricers interesting case, MeanWell PSU is awesome. Keep us updated ;)

I'll use 300mm LiHeat.

Overwatch settings: 1920x1080, Render Scale = 100%, Texture Quality = High, Dynamic Reflections = Off, all other settings = Low. During the battle I do not notice the difference between these settings and ultra :)

Type D correct? Would this riser work with my Asus Xonar DX LP Sound Card as well or would I need to look at a different version/type?

Hi I'm Li-Heat Willer Chen

We have updated the cables
Become thinner and softer



Our new cable width is only 57mm in thickness 1.8mm
Rated current:
12V = 2.4A;
3.3V = 1.4 + 0.4A,
(No additional power socket of the graphics card, do not use)

Hi @yawacool,

Are you going to produce powered risers as well ?

You would fill a huge gap on the market since there are only cheap powered PCIe Gen. 2 risers available.

It would be very useful in small builds, equiped with non-PEG GPUs like GTX 1050 Ti.

Beautiful. Just one question, do you think Zotac's 1050 Ti OC Edition would fit in your case? It says on their website it measures 174mm x 111.15mm, which means it's exactly 1mm longer than your specified max. length...

Yay, this case looks awesome man! I'm a sucker for those 45 degree bent pillars at the front of your case, they look sweet! Do you plan to powdercoat the case?

Yes, color will be matte black. But you can choose any color for your case. I'll share photos in a few days.

DEFINITE interest…!!!

Info on how / where internal PSU (assuming HDPLEX NanoATX 160W AC-DC & 300W HiFi DC-ATX combo…?) component(s) fit…?

I would think 300W HiFi DC-ATX next to MB (vertical orientation) & 160W AC-DC (horizontal orientation) under GPU…?

Full-tilt boogie, the following comes in at 350 watts over on PCPartsPicker…

HDPLEX 160W DC-ATX and HDPLEX 160W AC-DC are not supported.
CustomMOD Mini 3.96L works with HDPLEX HiFi 300W DC-ATX and external power brick. Yes, 300W HiFi DC-ATX is next to MB in vertical orientation.

Your setup without overclocking can easy work with 300W. You need HDPLEX HIFI 300W DC-ATX + Dell 330W DA330PM111 external power brick OR G-Unique unit & G-Unique modded Dell brick (400w version).
