I love the form factor, but one thing this case lacks is CPU cooling potential.
I was thinking, what if I took a 240mm AIO and mounted it on the outside of the right side panel, doing some dremel work to get the tubes and fan wires into the case. I could even get a couple of cheap wire fan grills to protect the fans. Looking at how it lines up, this would blow some air onto the motherboard VRM and into the corner of the PSU fan which could be beneficial.
And maybe even do the same thing on the other side, adding two additional fans to blow air into the GPU from the outside. That might even out the look of the case, and you'd have this weird little case with RGB fans pushing air into it from the outside.
I know the smart thing to do is just get the NCASE M1, but I love the tiny footprint of the Velka 5, and it's vertical orientation, and I think this might actually look kinda cool.
