Production Nouvolo Steck - SFF 8.7-11.2L ITX PC Case, supports liquid cooling

[SashaLag]

I am not familiar with online marketing, so I am not sure how to go about getting them to review them? Do they charge a fee? Do they want perks? Well I am just taking each step at a time, my plan is always to have the product totally ready before I move on to marketing.

well, it depends... I wrote for bitsandchips.it some years ago (about NAS & storage, but really few article as free time is not plentful here)... And they don't charge anything. Somebody else charge money fee, somebody else wants the product reviewed as a gift... it depends on site owner(s)! So you have to get in touch with each one and ask... It's not standardized... And a lot may want to hide fee(s) from publics as it may rise publics' eyebrows regarding free of judgement (if reviewer gets paid, is reviewer free to bash that product if he/she don't feel to give a good score?)

If you have any suggestions for me, you are more than welcome to chip in.

I forgot to mention that I am worried by your choice of ventilation for top and bottom panels... It seems to me to be a restrictive solution for airflow, so some test with and without these panels are welcome!

Jayz seems to be into the more hardcore stuff, custom water loop, custom mods, etc, well at least for his audience. Maybe he is just not really into SFF. Whereas for Dave I feel he is positioned more like Unboxing Therapy, more on "ready made" products i.e. notebook, smartphones, etc., but less on stuff that's required extra DIY work. Hardware Canucks seems to have the closest profile to what this forum is throwing out.

They seem like pretty friendly, easy-going guys from their videos, so I'm sure they'll help straighten things out and give you all the info you need. I doubt they charge a fee since you'd be sending them a free review case but I could be wrong. Only one way to find out: hit them up

News to me that review sites would demand a fee for a review!? That seems very bias inducing.

I put my name down. Hopefully I am not too late would love to do some testing in Australian summers, which will be here very soon.

I'm honestly not too surprised. (Your essentially paying for advertising on their channel with x subscribers). I think smaller channels would be willing to do it as a free case and then they get to review it. But bigger channels like dave2d and LTT will probably cost money to showcase a product on their site. I cant imagine it's a ton, but they have so many companies sending them stuff, I'm sure they get paid to make things priority or make something worth third while. (May be wrong, but it would not really surprise me if I'm right.... At least somewhat).

I will probably start contacting the bigger reviewers once I have the bulk in stock and have my website fully up and running. i.e. basically when I am ready to take orders and actually start shipping them. Then I will be in a better position to describe my current project and future plans. This could give them more confidence, in the worst case I can't imagine it could do any harm.

Only snag with this strategy is that I have to fork out more money up front, guess sometimes you just have to take a gamble. Even if I can't launch on KS, I will sell slowly through my website. Hopefully can still shift those 500 units eventually, with this kind of product I assume it won't go out of fashion completely and I won't have to write off my stock.

I suppose you will but I say it anyway. Consider sending a sample to confusis for review. I am sure he will give a detailed unbias review.

Will definitely ask Confusis, just let me prepare myself first

Either way, looking forward to getting either the first run or one of the test samples.

I'm fairly new to building PC's, espcieally small FF's, so hopefully if my name is selected out of the hat I think I can give some good feedback as a total nob building on your case.

It was this or the Louqe, and the louqe has taken far to long for me to feel comfortable ordering the second run of cases.

Some updated photos, to be used on website later

Do you have recommended 240mm AIO?

 

[Hifihedgehog]

Additionally, do you have a recommended or favorite air cooler? (Including for tall RAM users like myself )

 

[Longbow072]

Looks great! Love the windowed version. Would love to run a Enermax Liqfusion for the AIO with that window but unsure if the hose mounted pump will clear the power supply.

 

[dumplinknet]

Those images look great! Especially with that glass side panel and the AIO!

 

[Chinaman]

I'm wondering would you be able to fit two 120 water cooler close loops in the top hat. one for the cpu one for the gpu

 

[Longbow072]

Run both on one radiator, pump, and reservoir.

 

[macbosco]

Compiling a recommended hardware list for the website, will update you guys once it's ready.

But one thing about the RAM height which I came across and ended up having to buy another pair of them, is that for Noctua NH-L12S, you MUST use low profile RAM e.g. Corsair Vengeance LPX. Clearance is about 35mm. Anyway the heatsink will cover the ram completely so there is no point of using NH-L12S with RGB RAM.

 

[Longbow072]

Is the design modular? Meaning could the window on the right be flipped if I reversed the spine and window or will that be an option as to were the window is located and if you prefer the window and the CPU/PS on the left?

I know thats a lot to ask this late in the game.

Do you mean Like the Mjolnir video that just went up?

 

[Longbow072]

Essentially yes.
