Stalled [New Video Assembly] Densium 4 & 4+ - Tiny cases with real hardwood frontpanel!
- Thread starter Densium.net
- Start date
Will spare front panels ever go on sale? Don't think the black/black variant existed when I preordered. Might try a little bit of DIY colour while I wait for AM5 news but it'd be good to know I wouldn't have to live with ruined wood
Hell a CAD file might do

densium 4 , should i go
asus strix|| b660i / 12400f , b550i / 5600x or something else. I got the densium loom for psu, which is fitted for b550i? (can i assume b660i is same?)
entirely new build, so i dont have any spares around.

I'm running the asus b550i. Cable loom was perfect, though the 24 pin bend was a bit uncomfortable, wouldn't have minded one or two cm more wiggling space on the cables. Just compare the position of the 24 pin and 8 pin between the two. It's itx, usually its pretty much the same space. Not a lot of free real estate on the tiny boards.
I'm running the B660-i and had the exact same experience. 24-pin was a little tight until it was in place. The rest were no problem and I tucked wires away where I could to make it look neat. It's kind of a pain to install the harness to the GPU just because there's not much room for fingers between the connector and the case. Cable length is no issue, though. And I went B660i with a 12500 because I wanted to get the latest Intel architecture. Just keep in mind you need DDR5 RAM to go that way...always a trade-off.

Yea, that's strange - I had no issues. I used two small washers between the USB PCB and the silver mounting bracket. Then used the flat silver screws to mount. Here's the best picture I have. Can you power up the PC without the header screwed to the frame? That would rule out any mounting issues.
yes i can power the system on without screw in the usb headerYea, that's strange - I had no issues. I used two small washers between the USB PCB and the silver mounting bracket.

i tried like youYea, that's strange - I had no issues. I used two small washers between the USB PCB and the silver mounting bracket. Then used the flat silver screws to mount.

pcb

small washer

big washer
it works now
weird, i tried only single small and single ball didnt work
since i did like in the video (video is too fast tbh)
Probably the pcb solderpoints touch metal when screwed into the metal bracket. When attached to the caseframe this grounds into the flex powersupply and loops 5v from the usb header to ground somehow, triggering the overcurrentprotection? Washers prevent contact between pcb and metal frame, which grounds through the psu.
Hi,
I just received my Densium 4+ V2 today. I'm pleasantly surprised by how well it's packaged, it honestly feels a lot more premium than most other SFF cases I've worked with. I was going to ask however if there is a written instruction guide?, because while the video is helpful it doesn't give me specifics on what screws go where or what to use the washers on, etc. I can probably figure it out by skimming through this thread but that won't be a great experience for others that are less familiar with building PC's.

I read that a torx screwdriver of some sort is required?
pls also update shipping schedule with suppliers/shipping agents/managers! @Densium.net

Anything that can work with 2mm hex screws. Allen key, screwdriver, you name it
yeah they got that wrong its a 2mm hex screw socket.
Just for fun I took a Densium 4V2 case and extracted everything out the box that's inside, including the 2mm allen key, opps, in probably abou1 min. The accessory box is abit on the quality side so doesn't rip easily and took longer than I guessed but it can still be undone and if its in a plus case it will be easier with more space. Will post the vid at somepoint over the weekend.
OK, this is just a bit of fun, but here's how to get the allen key out if you haven't got one and just want to get on a build.
@Densium.net, is there any update on the APU version of the case? Or is that on the back burner for now?
Can I pay by installments with my credit card?
Any prediction about restocking full black version?
