Hi all

I'm up for changing my PC case, I currently have a Corsair Air 540 (which is about 4 years old or so, maybe a bit older). I want to go a little smaller and had my eye on the Lian Li PC 011 Dynamic mid-case (which I can see is very popular). I think that case is slightly deeper than I want (certainly deeper than the Air 540 - Lian Li specs say 445mm the Air 540 is 420mm).

I came across the Jonsbo U5 on OCUK, I love the simple clean look and fits with the measurements I'm looking for, but wondered how good/easy it is to build with and what's the best fan configuration, only found one post in a forum search? Can't believe there aren't more of you using it?!

I'll be putting a Strix Gaming-F Z390 mobo cooled with a Corsair AOI H100 and EVGA Superclocked GTX 1080 GPU in it - not full water cooling.

Thanks :)
 
Wait till they get the Jonsbo D40, assuming they do. It's basically an improved, smaller U5. The US just got its first shipment of the D30 (MATX version) and D40, so Europe's is likely soon.

Both are highly wanted, especially the D30, given the expected size of the new graphics cards.

Thanks - I noticed after I posted that the U5 has quite limited space for SSD (I have 2 of them) and HDD (I have one of them), looked up the D40 and it seems much better for drive storage. I could shift to M2's though. I do like the look of the D40.

So maybe the D40 or the Lian Li Air Mini.......
