Prototype The world most flexible SFF case? LOUQE Ghost S1
- Thread starter PaChalski
- Start date
Backed it earlier on kickstarter today 
What an awesome and versatile case, well done Louqe?
Shipping is a bit pricey though and swiss customs probably are going to want another 50-60 bucks.
But anyway it will be worth it...
BTW: how do you pronounce Louqe the right way?

Do you think there is any chance that they will increase the width 4mm to allow for the new noctua cooler? Otherwise, would there be enough ram clearance to run a slim NF-A12x15 PWM with it?
These pictures below don't give me a lot of confidence.. would probably have to go for naked PCB ram?

Can't see Jay saying he's going to make a water-cooling build and just have it be two AIO's, not his style, and it's not even remotely a challenge to put two AIO's if you have a top and bottom L hats. I hope he gets a production model soon and see what he does with it. Like @Bru said, there's space just have to be creative about it.
Hopefully the guys at Louqe provide us backers with a 3d model we can use to retrofit parts and loop designs. I have designed a custom res w/ embedded D5 pump waterblock for the Hex Gear R80, and would like to see if I could do the same here. Need some sort of an LOD model first.
All shipping outside EU do NOT include VAT and have been calculated without VAT in the KS-platform.
Guys, sorry for not answering all your questions here today, We are in Jönköping, preparing for the DreamHack 3 day event! will try to follow up on your posts tomorrow.

I want to say you MIGHT get away with Vengeance LPX (31mm height according to Google) if you use a scythe slip stream 120x12mm fan. I can't find the height on a naked stick though. Based on what I see about the L12, there's 43mm clearance under the fins, subtract 12mm for the fan...you get 31 on the dot. Though I'd say it may or may not be close for comfort and fan "magic" for lack of a better word generally happens at the tips so you may lose some cooling efficiency by actually increasing the size? Maybe?
This topic has been covered before - the MLC will not fit, regardless of stacking additional hats
Will not fit, even if you stack TopHats...
Where it is wide enough, it is too short; and where it is long enough, it is too narrow...
Good stuff getting JayzTwoCents to have a sneak peek at your case. It's sure to get many of his viewers to pledge for the Kickstarter, even though Jayz himself is not really an SFF guy. His cases are measured in kegs
I stand corrected than as I mainly follow air coolers.
But in that note, anyone have any opinions on Dan's cooler at 48mm with another fan on top?
Is 63mm cutting it close in terms of turbulence?
Would not be sure about the amount of turbulence noise you might get from 3mm; but, if you sourced some ultra low proflie DIMMs from Innodisk, you could do a push / pull with two Noctua slim 120mm fans on the Dan heat sink...
That's the idea! I am curious how bad the L9x65 turbulent noise was during the first round of cooler testing.
Does anyone know if the top can be permanently affixed? I like magnets and all but in a bag or backpack scenario I would not want it coming off. Sorry if this has already been asked, I went through most of this tread and did not catch it.
From what I can see on the air and liquid build videos, the hats and bottom plate have screw mounts to the spine.
Hope that's helpful.

Yes, there are screws to affix the bottom plates and the hats to the core, the magnets are there to keep the hats aligned while you secure them...
Yes, it seems the Corsair LPX are too tall to fit the Noctua 15 mm thick 120 mm fan on the underside of the NH-L12 heatsink. So, I started looking for some very low profile (VLP) DDR4. Crucial made some VLP DDR3, but all of their VLP DDR4 is ECC.
I hadn't heard of Innodisk before. On their website I found that they make Non-ECC VLP DDR4 that is only 0.738 inches / 18.7 mm tall in 4 GB, 8 GB, and 16 GB modules at speeds up to 2666 MHz . At this height a 25 mm thick fan is ever so slightly too thick, but 20 mm and 15 mm thick fans would fit on the underside of the NH-L12.
