It's great to hear your interested in our cases! Here are the answers:

1. It depends on the thickness of the graphics card's backplate but generally you should expect 16mm of space between the backplate and the side panel in xCase S and 39mm in xCase SE. This space is partly ocupied by a PCIe riser in the version with GPU facing the same direction as motherboard.
2. There is approx. 6mm of space between the fan on the Gigabyte GTX 1080 mini and the side panel. We could customize xCase SE by moving the graphics card towards the side panel. Space behind the graphics card can be reduced to 16mm (it's the minimum space in which PCIe riser will fit). It'll result in approx. 29mm between the fan and the side panel. Such distance would improve the airflow and reduce noise quite a bit.
3. We could laser cut the side panels from plywood, but to be honest it wouldn't look as good as the solid wood on the picture you posted. We could reduce the price if you'd like to order the case without the side panels.
4. Semi-transparent bezel ufrtunatelly isn't available. It's outside of the capabilities of 3D printing technology which we use.
