Thank you, Dan – very much looking forward these results. If you can try a reversed SFX-L and see how that behaves, even better.

Hi, @dondan is possible new version of dan a4?? or new version of asetek 92mm for better noise? i want to buy it on caseking.de on european zone, but isnt available, when i can buy it? rtx 3080 founders is available for dan a4 because has 2 slot and her size on picture is more small than custom, the problem maybe is the front fan, no?

Thermalright AXP-90R 45 Euro incl. shipping + 1 Noctua NF-A9x14 PWM, 92mm ( ~15 euro ) = 60 Euro
compared to 35 Euro from the NH-L9. For 10 degrees ? less I would do that immediately. Fan Duct is on top of that.
My question is if it fits on the mainboard or not. I don't want to have it delivered within 4 weeks and realize it doesn't fit on the board.

in the english speaking forum I was recommended to turn the AXP90 90 degrees so that the fins seem to run parallel to the ram.

But I have no idea if this will work and if the cooler will fit on the board at all. I would really like to order including Dan Case but I don't dare. Cooler in Asia order 35 days wait and notice that it does not fit together I do not want to experience this.
Can Dan or would confirm that the purchased cooler works from the top, will it work with good speeds that will be superior to the Noctua cooler?

Dan, thanks so much for the info. Based on what we've heard from EVGA Jacob, it seems that the 3090 XC3 would also barely but surely fit the DanA4?
Based on what I could scrape together, looks like all the XC3 versions will physically be the same size, so in theory one could put a 3090 XC3 into the Dancase and have one hell of a small gaming rig
Seems that GPU shroud could interfere with a side panelBased on what I could scrape together, looks like all the XC3 versions will physically be the same size, so in theory one could put a 3090 XC3 into the Dancase and have one hell of a small gaming rig
I just take it off then, or 3d print something like this:

I know we don't have the cards in hand but any thoughts on deshrouding the xc3 3080? Wondering if I should get the xc3 or fe, just would rather not wait since it sounds like if you don't grab them right away you may have to wait till 2021 for a card and who knows what the mark up might be.
For those curious on the XC3 versions:
Black - No backplate, 1710mhz boost
Gaming - Backplate, 1710mhz boost
Ultra- Backplate, 1755mhz boost
Hmm, no black plate preferable?

Yep, I'm rocking a EVGA 2070S Black in Dancase, and the missing backplate has not been an issue at all.
Anyway, curious to figure out how the riser cable situation will play out. I have a B550 board incoming and obviously would like to take "advantage" of the PCIe 4.0 compatibility on both the card and mobo. But without a proper riser cable can't do that.
Dondan: any chance at all that you could offer the 3M™ 8KC3-0726-0300 riser as a separate purchase?

I need som advice my Dan friends,
I`ve currently have this setup in my DAN v4.1:
- MSI Asus 2080 RTX
- i7 9700
- 32 GB LPX
- Asetek 645lt
- 1TB SSD
- 600w
Im considering selling it to build a new PC with the new AMD CPU`s and 3080 in the upcoming months. I got an offer for 1700$ for the whole rig now, which i think will drop a lot the upcomming months if i dont sell.
I also got an offer of 400$ for my GPU, if i do this option i just have to get my hands on a 3070 or 3080 that fit the Dan when it is released.
Should i with this rig:
A) Do nothing, chill, maybe wait for next generation in 2021. Because i can play with 120 FPS in Cod warzone no problem now. What more will i get by upgrading, and adding 1000$ to get new part?
B) Just sell the GPU and upgrade that, all the other parts are fine for a while
C) Sell the damn thing, 1700$ is a good price for this setup, then maybe build with another case that is suitable for the founders edition?
Problem if i do A; value of my PC will go down hard to maybe 1k max. so it will be a bigger money spend to upgrade next year
Problem with B; i dont know how long i will be without a GPU for, when will the suitable card be available to purchase? October? later? (in Norway)
Problem with C; I love my Dan, its like selling my puppy And i will be without a PC for several months at best. There is no cases that i want i can get a hold of right now.( All the SFF cases are sold out or not available in norway) Plus it with cost me at least 1 000$ more to upgrade, is it worth it?
