Great job @VELKASE Michael , the case is worth every penny?

Glad this is finally out!
Sorry if this question has been asked before, but how would I go about cooling an i9 9900k in the Velka 5? It's the one thing keeping me from pulling the trigger.

IMO rev1.1 pretty much nailed everything that could be improved upon.
If I had to nitpick - I would say universal slots instead of holes on the rear GPU chamber L-panel
Hoping that gets addressed in v1.2 ?
There are some delays due to pending purchases/ unpaid invoices. If you have submitted a response through the form but have not yet received an invoice yet, there is still a chance that a case will be available for you. It will just take a little bit more time. Sorry about the slow and inefficient process.
Edit: silver and gray vk-3 and vk-5 have been sold out. If you chose a silver or gray color and have not been contacted yet, you should be contacted soon about a possible color change if one of the pending purchases of a black case is cancelled or September pre-order for the color originally requested.

Digging up an old comment...
I'm looking at doing a similar build to you with the Velka 3 with a Ryzen 2600 and L9a.
Question for you is did you end up with the Enhance Flex PSU? I've just ordered it in as it was the last day they would ship them apparently, and didn't want to miss out.
On a semi related note, I'm running the Dancase A4 with the L9a and 3700x right now and my experience regarding temps has been the same as yours. I've got a Asetek 645 ready to be installed once all the Velka related goodies arrives =)
Which Velka case are you putting the Asetek cooler in? Or is that for your Dan case?
Will be putting the AIO in the Dancase - the L9A which is currently cooling the 3700x in the Dancase I'll move over to the Velka/2600 (the 2600 runs a bit cooler from experience).
Hello, nice power supplys, can you talk a little about realiability noise and quality of these, never saw one of these power supply, do you have any datasheet, manual? i bought one DPS-400AB-20C that failed after two months and now I am trying to repair... dont wanna to get scammed again at taobao.VK-3 looks very nice, but could you clarify PSU compatibility. You say modular flex PSUs won't work, how so? The bottom tray is longer than 150 mm to accommodate non-modular cables to bend out and upward. Many modular PSUs have up facing ports so additional horizontal space for cables to bend is not needed. Something like this one from taobao is an extra 24mm (174mm total). Not doable?
Thanks!
I am using a VK-3 with ASRock X570 ITX/TB3 motherboard. The only NVMe slot is on the back of the motherboard. A M.2 drive mounted there will be sandwiched between the motherboard and the GPU riser cable with no air flow and no room for a heat sink.
If you want to use that slot (I had to since it was my only one), use an M.2 extension cable. I used
NGFF M.2 PCIe M-Key Extension Card with 20 CM Cable
NGFF M.2 PCIe M-Key Extension Card with 20 CM Cable
(search for the part number, several places sell them)
I used it and put my M.2 drive and heat sink on top of the PSU. There is also plenty of room for it above the graphics card.
Was confused by the package I received today... Smaller and lighter than a shoebox ?
Turns out it was the case ? Too bad the rest of my parts haven't arrived yet...
Edit: Thanks for the tip on the rear m.2 slot!

Got the VK-5 and my second hand 2080 today. Literally laughed out loud when I saw that the VK-5 package is smaller than the EVGA box. Testing some parts in the old case before I install over the weekend. Verdict on the Black Ridge compatibility incoming as well!
what motherboard do you have that lets you use the BR with no riser? just curious
