I agree with this notion of really having support for 25mm fans in this design, it just makes no sense to avoid this configuration since we are trying to cool a potential workstation now. I also think if Wahaha is going with the vertical design, since cables need to come out top or bottom, there should be space enough around this area to place a ddc pump like the Mach 1...
Also if we have 25mm fan support, if going down the route of 280 rad we have the new 140 Sterrox fan from noctua coming probably next year, which should bring even better performance than their 120mm version.
Wahaha quick question about the production cycle/ timeframe of the vertical P1.
Because of the experience gained prototyping and delivering the T1, can we expect the preparation and delivery of the P1 to be smoother/ quicker or is it too early to tell? Excuse my eagerness, I (and many others) have followed you for a while and this looks to be another gem.
Thanks for you contribution to the community and keep up the amazing work!
I like the vertical. Imagine if you were able to put the mobo on the bottom of the vertical case, and have the CPU cooler height use all that vertical height space of the case...
I'm not sure if it would be possible because I'm not sure what the internal layout of the case will look like, but could it be possible to have both horizontal and vertical orientations? Maybe that bottom piece could be the cover for the cables in the vertical orientation, but can be unscrewed from the case to allow for horizontal orientation. So the case would be primarily vertical, but if you wanted to, you could lay it on it's side and have the case be horizontal.
