It will reportedly allow for use of the Intel boxed cooler or any aftermarket cooler that will fit in the same dimensions.

That actually looks pretty good to me. I like that they blacked out the Silverstone logo. I'd hope the LED strip isn't too blinding bright though.

A bit off topic, but why don't they (or someone) build a SFF case with a built-in fan?

Then the CPU doesn't need a fan, only a heat-sink. Put a dust-mesh over the fan, and get great airflow.

That'd require a heatsink with the perfect height. Too big a gap between the fan and the heatsink and performance drops off as the airflow takes the path of least resistance around the heatsink instead of through it.

Ok, so it would have to be an entirely build computer, or at least Case-Fan-heatsink-motherboard combo.

Totally agree, was completely necessary.

Nothing some tinkering can't fix
