Does this mean you're planning on making a smaller Cerberus? Similar to an M1 layout? Please confirm so I can cancel my M1 order if necessary

This would make my day! Along with many others I'd guess.Does this mean you're planning on making a smaller Cerberus? Similar to an M1 layout? Please confirm...
No doubt, it'd make more than my day! Man, I really hope it's true. It'd be so awesome.This would make my day! Along with many others I'd guess.![]()

He answered this in the affirmative on the last page. I don't think that it would be smaller, it's that the innards would be shifted downwards in such a way that an ITX board could be mounted with space for radiators in the top and the bottom.No doubt, it'd make more than my day!

Well it'd be a poor competitor to the M1 then. The Cerberus can fit matx plus a rad or 2. An itx board is shorter front to back as well as height top to bottom. I sincerely hope that means the Cerberus mini would be smaller than a Cerberus.He answered this in the affirmative on the last page.

Yeah I hope that isn't the case. There is so much community support for a Cerberus miniWell it'd be a poor competitor to the M1 then. The Cerberus can fit matx plus a rad or 2.

I'm not Sliger so don't take my word as gospel. He was specifically responding to my question about the Cerberus with ITX board shifted down (I think, at least that's what I thought I was asking) because that would give you 280mm support in the top and bottom (like people were asking for in the SM580).Yeah I hope that isn't the case.

Hm, that's strange. I haven't seen requests for that before. I've seen the SV540 but it's not really the same (though it is an interesting idea). Most people love the Cerberus design and options, and there seems to be a lot of demand for a Cerb mini. Hopefully we can get some clarification.I'm not Sliger so don't take my word as gospel.

If you want an M1-style system, look at the SV540 which he posted in another thread. It's basically a vertically-oriented M1.
I would have to make a bracket to adapt it. SM series was designed to be able to use any riser, but catch is we have to make a bracket for that riser.@KSliger
The case is great, however one thing is bothering me - if I would like to replace PCIe riser(for example PCIe 4.0) will it need to be made especially for SM580 or any good quality riser will do?

There will be both.Well it'd be a poor competitor to the M1 then. The Cerberus can fit matx plus a rad or 2. An itx board is shorter front to back as well as height top to bottom. I sincerely hope that means the Cerberus mini would be smaller than a Cerberus.
It's getting close, have to get a few more things out of the way and will wrap it up in next week or two.@KSliger , would you kindly comment about the SM570 manual, please?
I have not tested this particular card. I would recommend the SM560, but you should be able to get this into the 560 with very little to spare.Hey @KSliger,
I'm thinking about picking up one of these to put into an SM550: https://www.msi.com/Graphics-card/GeForce-RTX-2080-Ti-VENTUS-GP.html
According to the dimensions it should fit, but looks like it'll be right up against the case.
Wondering if you've tested this particular card, or seen any builds in the 550 using one?
Cheers!
Based on the dimensions and round corners this will 100% fit!Does anybody know if Corsair XR5 280mm radiator will fit in SM580? Its 140mmx312mm, but I know about the issue with the mounting. Its probably the highest performing radiator that could fit.
Hydro X Series XR5 280mm Water Cooling Radiator
The CORSAIR Hydro X Series XR5 280mm Water Cooling Radiator delivers extreme custom cooling performance, with an 30mm radiator thickness and premium copper core.www.corsair.com
No, it's way too tall. Max cooler height is 55mm, and those are 140mm. The largest Noctua HSF that will fit is the L9i/a.Will the C14S Noctua fit in SM580?
