I like the look of the Evo... price is attractive also for what it offers.

Looking at this case, would be running top fans as intake, dust filter on them having case with positive pressure forcing hot air out the gaps in the glass panel etc

Yes, that would be the way to do it I think. Definitely liking the look of this... the price of many SFF cases is just nuts, although I know you are paying for quality. Lack of rad support and TG is something that I'd be happy to pay a premium for, yet most don't offer either. I know there are a couple in the pipeline, but if Ophion Evo comes in circa £100 it's very appealing. Slight compromise on build quality, but it would appear to do everything required.

Unlike others such as the Dan and rocket.. can handle 2.5 slot cards which seems new Turing is offering a lot of . Only 3 slot I know of are Aorus and HOF currently
Also like the fact can shove an ATX PSU like focus unit in there

Looks nice, but does it leak?

These look really nice, any news on release date and price?

I really like the EVO model. Really considering going itx. I’ve always had ATX, but want to go smaller and like the evo layout. Still thinking what to do? Also considering micro ATX.

thing now is ITX VRM have greatly improved by using more expensive IR integrated units instead of having both low and high side mosfets taking up space and generating more heat .
depends on the board as well. MSI do lovely Ryzen range and Gigabte z390 board is 10+2 phase set up that can handle anything .

guesisng benifit of ITX is the onboard wifi as standard , with some like aorus giving 2x m.2 slots i think

I wonder what the noise would be like with a Corsair H100i 240 RGB Platinum and a Founders RTX 2080? I guess it would be much better then a air CPU cooler that's for sure.
