Log E.mini H88 Pro

Hello everybody.

Just got new case E.mini H88 Pro for APU build with external power brick and hurry to share my impressions.

Overall quality is very good. No sharp edges, good paintjob, precise fit.

Made first measures with HDPlex DC-ATX 200W:

1) It fits but first you should cut off button/led PCB or you can't plug in adapter to ATX connector.
2) Stock HDPlex connector (Dell 7,4x5 mm) doesn't fit in DC port that is for 5.5 mm connector. So drill it out (this is bad way imo) or better replace cable for HDPlex and powerbrick.

First attempt:

Needs some cable management inside.

I like this case very much.
Large mesh side-panel for ventilation.
No thumb screws that protrude out.
I would love to see some ITX/mATX/ATX cases in the same style.

If the motherboard is installed without the rear I/O cover,
then it should be possible to route all cables through the I/O hole, no??

Edit: Or drill a hole in I/O cover??

Yes. But i replaced DC connector not to drill everything around.
