I'm planning to do the same since I have those two parts sitting in a box in my closet.
How do you like that setup in terms of noise and cooling effectiveness?

Located in EU. I placed an order with them no problem. It's currently in transit for delivery.

please clarify.
did you order a whole computer, or just a chassis ??
how exactly did you order - did you contact them personally, or did you just fill in their standard online form ??

Kinda funny some cases get shipped all the way to Singapore just to get ordered back, LOL
I was buy from dreamcore as I'm from singapore. Initially I was email josh for purchasing then josh introduce dreamcore to me. I guess if you are in NA might not be able to get the case from dreamcore as same as I am unable to get the case from josh
Interesting. So the 1080mini will fit in a stock S4 Mini, if you remove the fan shroud... @DocH did you try leaving the stock fans on the card? I think they should also fit? As I don't think they go past the heatsink's edge. You might be able to fit the stock cooling solution back onto the card!
Let us know if you plan to try it out and if it works.This is great news for those who might want an S4 but cant afford the additional 2D or 3D Acrylic bezel made for the 1080mini to fit stock, they might be able to just remove the plastic shroud...

"Can't afford 2d 3d acrylic for s4 mini, but willing to buy a 1080.. "
I cri everytiem
didn't know you can use that in one sentence..
If i remember correctly i didn't want to leave the original fan on because the card could move and the fans could contact the chassis. I believe it was extremely close to the front cut out if not touching. If you want to brace it though out the case it may be a solution, but i would need to test for sure. I decided to buy a $17 premade cutout and two $6 fans to avoid the risk. Then i went to the local hardware store and got the proper length hardware to mount it where the 120mm fan mount is.Interesting.

As an update i tested the itx30 stock and with a 120mm scythe fan at 2000rpm. The stock was horrible and after 30 second of prime95 it hit 100C. The with the scythe fan it last about 5 minutes and reached up into the 95C range. I didn't try the redux fan as i didn't think it would out perform the itx30 with the scythe fan. So the best cooler is currently the lp53 then with the noctua fan. I really wish noctua would change that color of that fan i just can't do it.

About 1080 ti mini? Can i put inside a psu over 300watt?
I measured this a looong time ago and the stock Zotac 1080 fan blades overshoot the case, not just the bezel.
It is very effective with cooling, but it can get a little loud because there's no air-gap. But I leave that side of the case off, so for me it's both cool and quiet.
