The Nano! #1
Let me tell you a story..

Several months ago I found the perfect case for my purposes, small, compact, fresh and at the same time able to accommodate high-end components. For some strange reason that I still wonder , I decided to discover new worlds testing and using different cases.

For one or another reason, I never found the peace that I hoped thereby continuing to change cases. Now, finally, I reached (maybe) the inner Peace with solution not proper for daily usage...but you know, I'm crazy sometime.

With TJ-08E was all fine but the heat produced from the GPU was all on PSU, that was on the top part of the case. Even with the AP-180 at max speed, I needed to remove the sidepanel after a couple of hours on BF4.

After the review of this little thing (stay tuned, soon online ) I decided to use for my daily system! The only little concern was about the H80i since this Dimastech is not studied for WC setup. Anyway I did a little mod and now I can say that is mostly ready!

What I did?

Well it is very simple. I had already this Dimastech support, that I used on my Dimastech Hard with H100. So I took 2 screws, a drill and ta-da!

I covered the 5.25" and 3.5" slots because there are all my cables! Remember that I'm using Bitfenix Alchemy with Corsair PSU that is very tricky

Re: The Nano! #3
Thanks! I believe that the support is a great add! This mod is possible because I'm using ITX setup, otherwise there is no space and you have to use the flexfan support.

BTW yes, I will rotate soon! First..I need a fan grill hahaahah

Re: The Nano! #5
The flexfan is good for a fan, maybe also for a slim radiator and one fan. But definely not for a H80i + 2x 120mm, is too heavy.

Now temps are perfect (oh really? ) and noise is close to 0.

This is the support that I use: Dimastech shop
