Production Velka series cases for ultra compact and portable desktops

Case with panels is 0.54 kg. Weight of a Flex ATX power supply is 1.36 kg according to FSP Group.
It is less than 1.3 kg then. 1.3 kg must include the weight of the retail packaging. You can expect a full build to weigh about 3 kg in this case. Unfortunately I cannot weigh any Flex ATX units at the moment because I have them all in use.

Size of PSU =/= weight. Flex units tend to go beefy as hell on internal components
What are your thoughts on the RTX 2070 mini from Gigabyte? It appears to be a true ITX sized graphics card at 170 mm long, unlike the previous generation's 175 mm long Gigabyte GTX 1080 mini, judging by the images in this review.

Added a 1060 today , and it runs very well cpu and gpu both low temps. The weight is similar to a heavy laptop.
Glad to hear that. How was the difficulty of building in this case? Anything in particular that you believe should be improved?
I am worried about the ~1cm increase in thickness, otherwise I am just happy the 1080 mini wasn't the final card with that size/performance ratio to be made. The 1080 mini is already a snug fit (thickness-wise) in my loli2 build.

I think it was medium difficulty, at some points it required some tweaking ,but just slight things like adding washers etc. Even with 1 set of extensions it was still a squeeze to get all the power supply cables in.
Video coming in the next week or so

Video is up. Keep in mind, it just features the Velka M and it doesn’t go too in-depth on it.

I've been eyeing this card but a few have complained about fan noise. Now, I know this is ITX and that one fan has to work really hard, but there is this alternative:

I've seen it pop up on some European retailers, and MSI proved to be much better with acoustics compared to the Gigabyte model on the previous gen. I'm waiting for this to hit US retailers, but I can't find any kind of ETA.
The 400 watt unit from FSP Group weighs 0.9 kg. Other Flex ATX power supplies may have a similar weight.
It is too early to say when it will be available, but now there is more detailed information on what I plan this case to be.
