DAN C4-SFX

You are not allowed to do trades outside of the "trade" section of the forums, I think:

Trade

Transact hardware with members of the community

smallformfactor.net

Not reporting you or anything, just wanted to let you know

Thanks for letting me know, didn't know about that option and never used it. But my C4 probably has a new owner already (member from this forum / topic)

Thoughts on how well/bad the 5080/5080 FE design would work in the v1 C4? Specifically in the recommended air cooling setup where the blow through air from half the card would be going over the CPU tower. Not sure if it will really be that much of an issue with the fresh airflow from the back but curious what everyone thought.

This common issue with S620/NR200. The proximity of the 1st pcie with the tower cpu cooler on a mini ITX MB will definitely downgrade the airflow...but it should be all fine at the end. Not the best airflow, but not the worst by far...average let's say..

Now that the 5090 has been released, any updates or news as to the design or status of the C4-SFX v2?

I might put up my DAN C4-SFX for sale, since a lot of people here missed out on it I figured it would offer it here first. I'm located in EU / Netherlands so you might want to consider shipping costs.

I have the silver version with no mods made to it. Shoot me a DM if you are interested.

@Dampfbox is correct regarding doing trades is unfortunately not permitted outside of the trade section in the forums. Although seeing as there has been some past, I won't do anything in this case.

Although seeing as the transaction has already has happened, I still would like to gently advise to use the correct section for future references. There's reasons as to why it's there, so please do use it.

Thank you

Yes sorry, I wasn't aware. Except for Dan Case C4-SFX I didn't use SFF.net that much. But the case has been sold and send to the new happy owner

When will the v2 drop finally?

 

[boundary-stone]

If the C4-SFX V2 in the form currently expected does drop what would be the advantages / disadvantages vs the NCASE M2?

Nothing really given it's not likely to be cheaper or better quality. If you want a case of this size and quality there are 3-4 options at various price points now.
The only real USP could be wider availability in Europe I suppose, but I wouldn't count on that given what happened with V1

I own an NCASE M2 and I agree that there's a really exciting amount of competition in the ~15L sff case space right now.

At this point I'm just curious what the relative strengths / weaknesses would be for M2 vs C4-SFX V2 as a sff case fan.

Really? Such as...

Yeah I agree, there's a lot of competition in the ~15L SFF cases space.

In my humble opinion, for each type (desktop, tower), they offer similar capabilities with minute differences practically speaking.

However, for loyal customers, design language will play a big part in making decision.

The major disadvantage is that it won't fit an mATX mobo.

Huh? I thought Dan's initial claims for needing v2 was because he wanted mATX and flat-pack compatibility?

Latest news on Discord is that he's settled on a 13,50L design ; to be available in around 6 months from now.
mATX will come (much) later in the form of a different case. There was also talk of an updated A4-SFX.

I assume 13.5l means 280 AIO compatibility will be lost (v1 was 14.7l and heavily restricted which 280 would fit).

Another 6 months - which in Dan-speak is 12months minimum. What next? Another delay to wait for the 60 series nVidia card dimensions lol?

Seriously, he could have sold another 2 container loads of v1 by now.
