Raijintek's aluminum cases for the same price also show how out of whack the price is. I hadn't heard of the Geeek cases before so I'm looking into those even though the assembly looks nightmarish. Thanks for that info. What amazes me is that none of the major case makers have jumped on this market, with only the Cougar QBX being the sole entry into similar build as the Dan and others.

in all honesty, i think that some of theese videos about super powerful pc in mini itx cases, are somehow "misleading". i tried a build in a coolermaster 110 (which is roughly the same form factor as this one) 1080 and 8700, the cpu temperatures were barely acceptable with a modest AIO (modest but not trashy, it worked quite well) but the gpu was constantly hitting temp limit and throttling. the whole build sounded like a jet engine and during summer it was unbeareable to sit next to it, imagine having a heater turned on during summer, same effect. In the end i opted for a fractal design nano, which was bigger, but at least i was able to properly watercool both gpu and cpu. Don't get me wrong, those mini itx cases are great, but if you want a balanced system in there, maybe you should dial down a little bit your specs. maybe an i5 (possible a lower tdp version) and a 1060 (maybe a 1070). having an i7 and a 1080 constantly throttling for a reason or another, is just like throwing money in the sink.
@optimumtech

In no way is my content misleading. I've never recommended your build or that case before. SFF cases out there that can support a 240mm AIO can comfortably run a 9900K and 2700X. I've shown this many times. GPU thermals are typically better than ATX cases since they are usually mounted directly against a ventilated panel or above intake fans.

@@optimumtech Hey man, i'm not a native english speaker, so what i really meant may got a little bit lost in translation, so please excuse me if i sounded rude. Of course it wasn't my intention to accuse you of intentionally providing wrong information. It's just that i've seen a lot of videso from different content creators and only a few of them talks about temperatures under load. My experience with the coolermaster elite 110 was pretty bad with respect to the components i put inside him, and there was no possibility to watercool the GPU in that case. This LZ7 is a very cool case and luckily i didn't chose it for the price at the time (it seems though that have better ventilation for the gpu with respect to the 110). The problem, i think, is that the gigabyte 1080 itx runs pretty hot itself. My second choice of case was indeed a SFF case, the Define nano is an itx case but not as small as the LZ7, elite 110 and the other cube cases. And indeed i've put inside 2 dual 120 rad. Cpu and Gpu now both run great (we are talking the gpu going from 90° celsius with the stock cooler in the 110 down to 55°/60° under load). Another funny thing that i even didn't consider at the time, was that some Nvme ssds, tends to run really hot under usage, when i watercooled cpu and gpu, i started nopticing very bad performance in the general usage of the pc. of course my first suspects were about maybe a bad application of the cpu waterblock, but cpu temps were more than fine, maybe some bios settigs, but also there i had already all the correct values set, only by chance i stumbled upon the ssd temps that were over 70° and after some research i discovered that even ssds nowadays may thermal throttle. without the air provided by the cpu stock cooler temps went high, so a small heatsink on the little fella and all temps finally were under control. Mine was a very instructive experience but also substantially frustrating XD

While this is a great case, it's a shame there aren't more cases like the Raven RVZ03 and DAN... in respect to being able to take a full length GPU. The DAN can struggle a bit with temps and noise, but the Raven is excellent for both (it's bigger though of course). You can even squeeze a small AIO in them. Personally, I'd like to see more small SFF cases that you can have top spec builds in, rather than obviously compromised systems, even though I know that is what some people want. For a small cheap console killer, this does a great job.

After they get money and attention, they may develop it further for manufacturing with more serious equipment (injection molding of plastic corners) which will lead to better part quality (instead of printed) as well as more technological/material options for other parts, like sheet metal frames and brackets for components, since it would be appropriate in that case, unlike current DIY-ish design).
