From my dry-build you can, but not if you use the PSU mounting cage. There isn't sufficient room to attach cables. You have to mount the PSU to the case directly.
Thanks for the clarification. Does front mounting the PSU eliminate the ability to mount 2.5" drives?
Thanks for the details. Looks like I'll have to find another spot in the case to mount a 2.5" drive
Having an M1 and the C4, I have to say, not needing to run the USB 3.0 cable to the front is SO nice. I do wish there were two USB-C, but I totally understand not adding A. It's a little annoying for sure, but this is how it's going to be in the future and I don't really mind. Much like Apple killing the floppy drive way back when, this is how things are going to end up. Dan is just a little ahead.
I also have an M1 and tbh I still find it to be a bit of a pain that there are no USB-A ports. The kind of devices I need to pop in and out of the IO on my laptop or the front of my case are still mostly USB-A (wireless receivers, micro SD adapters, keyboards, etc).
Which version of the NCASE M1 do you have? Cause my V6.1 has two USB A ports and a single USB C one.
I totally misunderstood the comment - I was referring to the M1 Macbook Air, not the NCASE M1. My mistake.
I do understand it, I just hated the USB-A cable in my M1. I had to get a right angle adapter for it, and it's so goddamn stiff, and the cable is so long. It's just frustrating to have to deal with in a case that tightly packed. The only issue I have with the C4's C-only front is my yubikey; everything else has migrated to C for me, and I suppose it won't be long before I grab a yubi-c and keep the A as a backup. The C4 is a larger case, but I'm not going to cry over the lack of A. To be honest, I actually like the A4-H2O side IO and wouldn't have minded that, but it doesn't look as clean on this design.
I have the v6.1. And I do on occasion use the A, mostly if I'm reinstalling an OS. But since my M1 is under my desk, not on it, I have other port tools to bring audio and USB to more practical places. Yes, I realize this isn't a common situation, and I know it adds cost etc, but for me both of these cases work great.
Nice build! I was also considering using the Cablemod right-angle connector, but it doesn't look like the one you shared. Mine looks like the one pictured here. I would love to find one that's lower profile though. Could you elaborate on how you solved the side panel fitment issue? I'm concerned I will run into the same thing.Finished build. It includes a few interesting things that might be helpful to people. E.g.
SFX-L power supply with custom Cablemod cables
Right-angle 16pin cable for 4090 from Cablemod. Puts a tiny bit of pressure on the side panel that I fixed with a small amount of double-sided tape to make it essentially undetectable.
Offset Noctua brackets for AM5

Feel free to ask any questions. Sorry for all the contrasting wood in the photos, didn't have time to set it up somewhere prettier for photos.

I have the GSkill Flare (33mm) and there's approx 1cm to spare. Finding RAM is not an issue with the D12L unless you want a second full size fan
