    Just built in this case and have some updates: It has 3-slot GPU support and despite what the manual says, I was able to install 3x120mm 25mm thick intake fans in the bottom, as well as an ASUS 360AIO up top alongside a full ATX 170mm long Seasonic Prime Titanium 1000W PSU in the case with absolutely no problems. I'm running the ASUS ROG Z690 ITX, 2x16GB Dom Plats 5600 C36 and a 12600K with a Gigabyte Vision 3080Ti. I only have complaint about the case in the the included feet seem too short, so I purchased a set of rubber feet for $10 US and installed them using the included foot screws to add a full inch / 2.5 cm of standoff between the desk and bottom of the case. I cannot overstate how solid this case is built and how many screws there are holding the internal structure together- it's a tank, albeit a small one. I went with the TG sides to keep the chimney effect intact and the GPU is staying under 60 degrees under full load. It is a bit loud as I'm not undervolting or using high end fans, but I'm very impressed with the build quality and would recommend the case for those seeking a more compact build with amazing compatibility. It's not very portable, but it is dwarfed by an 011. Build quality is top notch and I'm very happy with the purchase. Thanks for the review! Edit: I went with this because despite being 'for sale off and on', the NR200P Max is still hard to get a hold and this case offers much more layout / cooling flexibility (albeit at the sacrifice of volume).

    I bought this case a year ago with pretty much exactly the aircooled setup shown in this video. while it is easily as, if not better build than recent lian li cases, and gets the job done, i did not really fell in love with it. despite not beeing volume optimized and having unused spaces everywhere, there are some really odd angles and shapes that make cable routing a pain. for example, there is protruding 90° metal lip on the mainboard holder i needed to dremel away to get the sata cables onto the motherboard. that lip is used to screw the psu cage to, but could easily been removed below in factory. that psu cage is another non needed oddity that makes routing cables a nightmare. especially the usb-c front panel connector cable is really stiff and there is not enough room to bent it.
    there is also only a really small breakout to get two sata and power cables to the 2.5" drive holder behind the front plate and you have to bent them in a really tight angle (90° cables dont fit either) which exert constant force onto the connectors.
    only having space for a 2 slot graphics card despite the size is also something that becomes more and more unreasonable with newer GPUs.
    there are some other things that mainly having to do with sub-par layout and sizing problems too. and i am not new to building itx systems by no means. its just not a well designed case on the inside. i would go with an alternative, like the fractal torrent nano next time.

    I'm one of those who prefers air cooling over liquid. Not that I think there's a risk with liquid cooling. It's more like there's a bit more maintenance to do with liquid and I'm often too busy/lazy to want to maintain stuff too often. Air coolers will generally be fine even if you only clean once or twice a year. Yeah it'll probably be dirty but at most you'll be getting a few degrees hotter, if even that.
    I also don't build showpieces: I only build PCs for practical use. My purpose for wanting small form factor builds is also practicality, because I actually move around a lot (prior to the pandemic I even moved around between countries with my PC). So liquid cooling makes even less sense.
    My rules for building can be summed up into whatever gets me decent enough performance in the simplest and most cost-effective way is good enough.

    I'm waiting on last fittings for my custom loop build in Jonsbo A4. I have my PC already set up in it without the sides on stock coolers. Also has nice build quality and isn't flimsy like most cheap PC cases. Saying that I also wouldn't put it in a budget category. I think the only issue that I have with the A4 for now is that it's split down the middle too evenly and that wastes a lot of space on both sides. Anyway. Hope the airflow setup works out and I manage to keep it cool with just the single 240mm rad.

    Would love to see you do a review of the Jonsbo D30.
    Just built my first SFF build, this was the main contender for case, but I ended up going for the Jonsbo D30 (from the parent company), just as it provided a bit better support for DTX / mATX motherboards, and I preferred the layout with the PSU being side on in the top corner as it left plenty of room for RGB controller, fan controller, 2 SSDs and solid cable management, while still fitting a 240 AIO up top, a 120 fan on the exhaust, and 2 140 fans on the bottom.

    So I just got this case and now I’m trying to figure out how I’m going to make the most of it with an EVGA FTW3 3080Ti. I like the air cooled set up so I got the NH-D15S, it looks great. The problem is, even 15mm slim fans won’t fit under the FTW3 3080Ti shroud. It might be fine without them but I deshrouded the card anyway, however, the fan slots do not line up well with the heat sink and I would need 30mm for no gap. Instead I zip tied two NF-A12s to the heatsink. Going to see how that performs but I’m leaning more towards water cooling the GPU while keeping the D15S on the 5900x. Maybe I should just get two rads and watercool the CPU too but it does seem a little simpler to just do the GPU with it’s own dedicated rad and loop. There would be more negative pressure with two rads and better airflow with only one. It is the tempered glass version so having good vertical airflow will probably be crucial for optimal thermals. Not really sure what to do and don’t want to spend too much more. I didn’t even want a 3080Ti but I couldn’t find a 3080 for a decent price. I got the 3080Ti for $1500 sealed.

    Idk wether you have heard of the new slim 120mm fans from Arctic but if you did what are your thoughts on them? I remember you saying that the 25mm ones were really good fans for their price, but can the same be said about the new slimmer ones?

    depending on use, a watercooled GPU with air cooled CPU might actually be more efficient
    there are AIO GPUs out there with 240mm radiators and by putting the radiator from the GPU slightly to the front (basically avoiding the top fan mount that's directly pointing at the CPU cooler), you could mostly avoid the warm air coming from the CPU

  • @DenGuleBalje

    Big fan of high end air cooling. My CPU is cooled by a big Noctua tower cooler and my GPU is cooled by a Raijintek Morpheus II with two Noctua fans mounted to it.
    Air cooling means fewer noisy moving parts. An AIO has both fans and a pump, a big air cooler has only the fans.
    Sure the cooling potential is greater with a water cooler, especially with sustained loads, but desktop CPUs just don't produce that much heat. I can understand liquid cooling in servers with multiple 280w CPUs, but not with a modern 65-105w desktop CPU.

    Did you take several y-connectors and then plug them into the existing Sys Fan?
    Or did you install a Commander Pro?
    Or did you install a small hub and then plug it into the SYS FAN?
    I have exactly the same case and am just thinking about what is best.

    What I'd like to see is this same Air cooler, and having a custom loop with both 360mm radiators for the GPU. Most often for gaming you don't need a powerful CPU at all, like my 5600x is low voltage and barely goes above 50% load ever while running 4k 144fps on APEX, but on APEX my game will run 144fps while the GPU is cold and level out at 90FPS while it maintains 75 degrees at max load.

    They could have done a micro atx layout in the same space by moving the psu to the front, moving the motherboard up to the three top fans and adding the remaining two slots, maybe three extra slots. You will be limited to only air cooled but it will probide an uption for other users that are aircooling anyway.

    "So if you wanted to air cool your CPU but then liquid cool your GPU for some reason, it'd be a really odd setup, but it is actually possible."
    It makes a heck of a lot more sense than liquid cooling your CPU while air cooling your GPU, which seems quite popular. The GPU generally produces a lot more heat than the CPU.

    whats about your lequid build? I'm looking forward to it. Currently I'm planing water-cooled build in the case, but while planing the dimensions i noticed that 360 buttom and top is a little bit to large in the lenght. Even if you planing with a shorter magic-cool or XSPC-radiator. It looks like it's not possible to mount 2x 360er without any case-modifications to fit it. 2x 240er would fit, but tbh i dont know if the area would be wasted if the case is already larger.
    kind regards from germany,
