DAN C4-SFX

The C4 (and theoretically the Evo M1 v2) were right in that 167mm or so width, just allowing an NH-D12L to fit in. The R1 is about 20mm wider, so it's not really in the same category.
To be honest, I thought that was an issue until I tried an NH-D12L in my C4- it was just far too noisy at full load. I put a 280 AIO in there now and it's perfect.
Today the A3-mATX has been officially announced by Lian-Li... here's hoping that Dan might now have a few minutes of free time to come and provide us with an update on the C4-SFX v2...
Dan posted a few minutes ago on Reddit about the C4 SFX v2 for a survey regarding ITX vs mATX.
Looks like it’s not dead, yay!

Seem I was right on the money regarding the timing
Thanks for the heads up, that's great news.
What motherboard standard do you plan to use?
While the C4-SFX v2 is being prototyped i like to know what kind of parts do you plan for your v2 build.

Hey @dondan great to see more prototyping occurring. One of the things that first drew me to the C4 case was the ability of putting a 4090 FE on top with enough room to have two slim fans acting as more intake for the case. Before I answer the question of ITX vs Micro-ATX, would I still be able to have slim fans on top with the Micro? That would definitely influence how I respond to such a survey.What motherboard standard do you plan to use?

A decent mATX SFF case would be very welcomeWhat motherboard standard do you plan to use?

I considered the Meshroom D briefly, but after seeing reviews and builds I was like: So its basically EXTENSION (and add 1 kg more to the case) or die of bad air flow? NOPE.

I voted mATX and air.
I prefer ITX but quality boards are getting tougher and tougher to find. I used to run custom loops but the NH-D12 is amazing and has converted me back to air.

I voted ITX and air. I'm fine if it also supports mATX though. Mostly concerned that it doesn't get wider, esp because there are now multiple cases in that 180-190mm width
I completely agree and also voted for ITX.
I think the dilemma is: With mATX you have to turn the PSU and then you are loosing the space for a fan or AiO on the right side.
mATX as an option is welcome, but frankly spoken, for a good mATX-build, the case has to grow. And then one can get the A3.

But that's not the original A3, which was sub 20L. This one is 26L, which puts it in a completely different class IMO.
Conversely, for those who want ITX only in a larger case, there's the Louqe R1.
