Completed MJOLNIR: The minimalistic – but not boring – 9.7L Case

[steelfractal]

We’re ready for launch! @steelfractal I made sure to replenish my reserve of epic cake for this

Only one are you alright... Ahh i get it the rest are still in the freezer had me worried there for a second

For the 16 NANOQ R, most definitely, I’ve actually modeled a loop in ordered to compile a document for you guys with all dimensions and parts.

For the 11L NANOQ S, this will also be possible, I’m currently modeling it.

Below demo is for the NANOQ R.

By any chance did you ever get around to a NANOQ S render? Very interested in seeing what maximum hard tube custom loop cooling capability would look like before I decide which model to preorder!!!

 

[AlexTzone]

Just snagged my NanoQ S! Looking forward to building in this lil guy

Huge welcome on board!!

Yes I’ve been tinkering with it and have an issue with connecting the last tube (it’s probably not that hard but I’m not sure which fitting to use), anyways maybe I can show you the pics there so you can see for yourself. With soft tubing it won’t be a problem.

Man the pre-order process was terrible. won't be able to sleep tonight.
The link didn't appear when the clock reached zero. I had to come back to this thread and find the direct link to place the order. lost precious 5 minutes because of this, and most likely my order was not the first or even second.

I would appreciate that! Want to get my order in ASAP

I’m not sure if it was because we use cache and CDNs or because many people were spamming F5 But after I manually cleared cache (after a couple of seconds) the countdown banner and buy buttons lead to the configurator and the pre-order button added stuff to cart. Rest easy now friend, welcome on board and I can’t wait to ship your case!

Awesome, will send them shortly.

I wonder how many guys ordered first than me?

Say, what's the order number of the first order to Portugal?

PM me your order number or email and I’ll check

another question, this one actually important, is related to the custom cables from your partner.

I have a set of custom cables made to order from cablemod. They are almost perfect for my current M1 ( check pics attached ) but I think they wont work on the nanoqs because of the PSU configuration. On the nano the psu fan is pointing on the oposite side.
This means I will probably will need to have another set of cables done.

- The questions regarding the cables is ( particulary the 24 pin cable ) is:
- it's lenght with a standard layout itx mb. The 24 pin layout paralel to the memory slots and a sf750 psu
- are the 24 pin connectors wires all the same lenght?

It would be nice to see a set or two of these custom cables installed in the case to better see the slack they have, if any.

These cables look very long, BespokeBakas cables are super short. Heey join us on the live build and Q&A on Sunday, I can show you the cables and exactly how much slack (there is not) etc

ps. You didn’t ask this but I want to make it clear for everyone that we don’t profit anything from Baka’s cables, I just thought it would be great to partner up with someone who knows what they’re doing and that can make the NANOQ experience (vastly) better imo a real win-win!

 

[turboleak]

I think you are are looking at the wrong cables! there is less than 1cm slack on the 24 pin cable.

Yep! I will join the Q&A. youtube, right?

Def wanna see the stream! Will it be on the Thorzone YT channel?

Oh now I see, they will still be pretty long in the NANOQ in with that layout, I’ll show them to you during the stream, they are super short and look like a rainbow.

The stream will be on our YT channel

Awesome, yes sir on our YT!

I swear we talked about this in a thread somewhere @AlexTzone but I can't seem to find it now: You mentioned that FE style flowthrough cards have worse airflow than standard AIB partner cards due to the placement of the PSU.

You mentioned that there was an option to flip the PSU to improve that if I recall correctly, but I believe you might have also mentioned that you can only flip the PSU in the larger NanoQ R case. Is that true?

If that is an issue, is it possible to use standoffs for the PSU to create an airgap between the back of the PSU and an FE graphics card?

In NANOQ R you can flip the PSU upside down, but in both NANOQ S and R you can flip it so the PSU fan faces the back of the GPU instead of the shell <= this is the flip you are looking for

I would also love to see an example of a custom loop in the S version

Btw, how many runs are you planning to do? Do you already have a date for the next one?

Here's my DM to @SuperFlyGuy99 :

"Heey, check out this rough render of a custom loop in the S. Using 17mm thick rads and hardline. The issue I have is I'm not certain which fittings to use to connect the tubes below the motherboard (right side, 2nd picture). Would be easy with soft tubing. NANOQ R will be a much easier custom loop experience, but it's definitely possible in the S as well."

This brings up and interesting question. Will an SFX-L power supply fit in the NanoQ S with a 240mm AIO and standard 25mm fans or will slim fans be necessary?
