Hey all

Been playing around with efficient ITX layouts and came up with the following:

Got 3 different sizes to accommodate different cooling options, but the second one would probably be most ideal without going overboard. You can see dimensions and total volume bottom right.

Anyone know any cases like this? This HDD arrangement has probably never been done so bit of a long shot..

The Lian Li PC-Q10 is the closest I could find but limited HDD space.

Cougar QBX is very close to your first layout. The PSU is rotated 90 degrees horizontally (in line with the motherboard) and then the HDD/SSD hang in front of it. The fans are 120mm instead of 140mm, and you'd have to mount your CLC above the CPU (there's a bracket) rather than in the rear.

I'm not sure the last two would actually be possible, since the graphics card would block the possible tubing routes.

:) why are you sucking in cold air, heating it up and blowing it on your gpu , the air then heats up your cpu which then recycles to make your cpu and gpu even hotter?
Total madness :o
