Would this work with that powered 4x-16x riser?
Which powered riser specifically?

I believe it's too tall.
Maybe not. It's about 40mm high which gives enough room for it to fit inside. Problem is, you just can't connect a GPU directly to the x16 slot unless you use an offset CPU cooler with thin heatpipes as shown there.
To use it in this particular case, you'd have to offset the GPU instead, with a 5cm riser cable, so that it can be placed in the single low profile slot.
I'm running the same build, with a G4600T and a dual slot GTX 1050 Ti.
Both CPU and GPU passively cooled.
The whole build is powered by a single 12V AC adapter.
By using a singe-slot GTX 1050 Ti, I figured you could go down to around 3L, that is with an external adapter.
You could certainly lower the volume by using a short GPU such as the GT 1030.
I already replied to you on Discord, but the answer here is, I have leftover panels for this case, but they require the 3D-printed parts to be made to complete it. If I can find old STLs or re-make them from the source design files it should be possible.Hello! I'm interested in this case if it's still available/can be made on-demand. I just hacked together a rebuild of my router PC into a cheap miniITX case I got from Amazon and I overlooked the fact that it didn't have an expansion slot for my dual port 2.5 GbE PCI-E card... I had to mod the case (albeit a bit too much) to make an opening/my own "expansion slot" for the aforementioned network card. @CC Ricers I'm on the SFF.network discord server. I pinged you there with more info regarding my request. Thanks in advance!
This quote is now almost 5 years old and becoming very irrelevant. Phoenix APUs in current-gen Ryzen chips are closely approaching RX 570/GTX 1060 performance. Therefore, a hypothical future run of these cases would support APU-only builds by default. There are tons of ITX board-only cases out there, but again, I really like the aesthetics of this one!They don't make 580 cards short enough for a mini ITX sized case unfortunately, so you're limited to the 560s (or Sapphire 570 ITX).
I know we've started a DM on Discord, but thanks again for taking on my request. I'll recommend the crap out of your work.I already replied to you on Discord, but the answer here is, I have leftover panels for this case, but they require the 3D-printed parts to be made to complete it.

I still think this is one of my favorite designs I made and wouldn't mind making a few more- thin mini ITX with single slot card is pretty niche though. A regular APU build with a regular ITX board would be a far more common layout, and we seem to be in a golden age of APU mini PCs. With that in mind....
