Enclosure Need advice for a specific set of hardware requirements (NUC or SFF)

[chocoboboy2022]

I have the following requirements for a PC:
- Fanless
- Small enough to be mounted behind on VESA brackets if need be
- Need to have minimum 32GB of RAM
- Powerful enough to handle heavy office applications and web browsing
- Onboard GPU strong enough to handle G9 Odyssey 49 inch screen
- Price is not a factor when deciding the hardware

I have been trying to look for a fanless design but not seeing many alternatives. I see Akasa has some cases but then I am struggling to find the motherboard that will work inside it.

Thanks for all the help in advance.

Haven't tried them, but Cirrus7 specialises in fanless computers.



They are based in Germany and have an English version of their site: https://www.cirrus7.com/en/



They have 3 main series:

• Nimbus: based on (thin) mini-ITX (up-to i9-12900T)
• Incus: based on Deskmini (AMD and Intel available) (you can buy the chassis alone too)
• Nimbini: based on Intel NUC

Felix from Cirrus7 was last seen on the forum a year ago, but I'll still try to summon him here ... @cirrus7

They offer a vesa mount option for all their chassis.

Another solution would be the HDPLEX H1 V3 with the NUC kit: https://hdplex.com/hdplex-fanless-nuc-kit.html



This won't be as space efficient as a case built specifically for a NUC, but that's another solution.

You could also just mod the deskmini with a larger cooler and run it passive
