DAN A4-SFX v4.1

[D90]

Won't work, cause the V2 doesn't have the Mounting-spots for it.

Can’t it be modded to have mounting spots? Is the v3 case larger than the v2?

 

[wolf30]

Where to buy it if i could ask?

you can buy it here https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B010NBLRHK/?tag=theminutiae-20

so now there should be no problem to use usb cable along with asetek 92mm AIO on v2 I am surprised though not many people know about this cable.

Its the same size and all, but you have to mod it tho. I dont think dan would sell those for some users.

No problem, hope it works for you

Im quite curious about this actually as this is the only advantage of v3 over v2, but I am curious what is the limitation of using HDPlex instad of 92mm AIO, true with HDplex you can use 120mm radiator, but do I have to sacrifice GPU? can I still use full length 1070, 1080 or 1080 ti? or evne the 2080? is there any other thing that I need to keep in mind of using HDPlex

You can use a reference length GPU, with the HDPlex sitting behind the front wall.

External bricks are the limiting factor for now. The most common laptop bricks (19-24v) only goes up to 330w. The Eurocom goes to 700+ watts, but is very expensive. You can find some cheaper industrial power supplies going up to 1200w.

Or:

HDPLEX will have an internal 400w AC-DC adapter option, to go with the 400w Plex.
A number of the forum members have also been taking about creating an external enclosure, to transform the AC-DC adapter into a brick.

Thanks for the reminder on the 400w AC adapter. I am looking forward to having a much smaller brick.

Thought I'd share some pics of my completed DAN A4 V2 build.

Just looking to get some windowed panels now, but absolutely adore this build, couldn't be happier!

Great news for every v2 owner. In the next days SFFLab will offer a USB 3.0 v3 upgrade kit. With this cable you can use a Asetek 92mm AIO together with front I/O installed.

That’s great! Depending on price, I might pick up one each for my v1 and v2...

$15, it’s already up but under the M1 parts section

What's the cooling capacity of the 92mm AIO? I want to run a 8700k but I'm not sure I'd the 92mm AIO is up to the task

Delidded it will be fine. If you're not overclocking too far it should also be able to handle it.

anyone know where can i buy a better feet for this case? and the power button if there's any?
