I asked about replacements fans in case something breaks and I'm told there is a 1 year warranty. If something goes wrong they will replace the fan. After the warranty expires there will be an option to purchase a new one if you need to. Thats probably the biggest risk going for something like this, as there is no way to use a typical case fan if you wanted to.

Edit: I simply made this comment to share my opinion and give insight into pricing both as a consumer and someone that has worked with manufacturers before. Please don't assume things about my irl circumstances... ive got $1k+ keyboards, so i dont think the price point is necessarily a problem, but it has to deliver some perceived value, quality and innovation to be worth that price. it definitely has a very innovative design, but i think that the price right now is also higher than it should be because of small manufacturing runs. ive seen manufacturing quotes of cnc pieces for keyboards above $3k for small runs, like 50-100 units. (obviously they could also just be overcharging lol)

ATX is simply more popular, you can order your units in larger batches saving you money, you can keep a surplus in stock because you know they will sell, which means your product will be less expensive. SFF pcs are not all that popular, ordering larger batches and keeping them in a warehouse unsold makes no sense, the cases will need to be ordered in smaller quantities, costing you more, which means the customer is going to pay more.

With traditional PC case fan there will be some airflow moving around the mobo either its exhaust or intake configuration. but this configuration seems like its only focussing on the radiator for cpu and not pulling any warm air from the mobo side. edit: I just noticed at 0:10 there is holes for air from the mobo chamber to be pulled through by the fan, resulting hot air from nvme and ram to be exhausted.

I feel like so much could be done by changing the ITX layout or even how the whole cpu gpu combo is designed. Single board computers with with swapable gpu dies, or mobos with gpu mounting ports on the back that are much closer physically to the cpu. The pci-e extention cable is a major source of latency in communication between gpu and cpu. And depending on your application can cause stuttering. Not to mention it tends to fail often if you swap gpus a bit. SBC's is probably the future. Apple is leading the way there with their Arm based M chips. I really wouldn't be surprised if the windows platform followed soon, and eventually almost all pcs would be SBC. hopefully with replaceable parts.

thats some crazy sff temps

[@lewisb8389]

hey I'm pretty sure LTT made a video about this case about 8 months ago about the crossflow fan

[@MasterOfNone88]

I was expecting $250 Tops. $500 is crazy work. I’ll look at cheaper options until other manufacturers make similarly competitively priced options.

Corsair sells Type 5 PCIE 90° Cable.

[@mikenapolo2490]

yeah...i'll stick to my CM 200NR...similar temps with a price tag $375 cheaper

[@lowell_]

That price and the handle isn't trustworthy to hold the weight in your opinion? I wish SFF cases manufacturers would actually include solid handles if they decide to add one at all. Seems hard to find a good mini case with a trustworthy handle.

They literally made an indoor AC wall unit into a PC case 💀

The case is so beautiful, but man that price is insane.

[@macbaconboi6382]

Its pretty expensive but I think the build quality, mechanisms and the fact that you can install a 280 AIO on it makes up for it. Not worth it in my books but Im sure sff enthusiasts will love it.

[@DanielBerthellemy]

$549.99 ?! Oh Hell Nawh. Hope to see a similar case from a Lian-Li sometime soon in future for sub $150 price point.

What FPS / hardware monitoring tool are you using in game? Looks clean AF

[@muhdzulhilmi7]

its msi afterburner. you can customise the looks of it, he already dropped a vid on how he customised it to get that look and I'm using the same style. just look it up
