the DREAM ITX case is here! (NANOQ S) 

If it all possible, please try to avoid shipping with DHL. They are absolutely terrible. I’m excited to have this case on my desk 🎉

Why do you think the case had the 4090 as high as 80C? I've never seen that before

@@ipressdatofu The FE is not optimized for a sandwich layout, you’re better off with a triple fan card. However, there are a few things you can do to improve it further. And don’t forget it’s a 4090.

@@THORZONEthanks for responding! Do you plan to release any thermal benchmarks? Also if I miss the preorder, is there a timeline for when more will be in stock? Not sure I can pull the trigger this month is why I’m asking but I plan to order.

@@Devtac- basic DHL is but express is actually insane good. At least where im from and some neighbour countries as i know people there who order a lot

Yeah especially if the rollout will be as bumpy as with the Mjolnir.

Neither of the cases you mentioned are unibody. This price is more than understandable

International shipping included

It’s a premium case tbf, looks night and day to how the FormD is shipped

@@vishred i often hear so much about how premium the formd t1 is, both in material construction and packaging

we can safely assume you own a cat xD

You should have just stopped at "It is so bizarre to spend $400-$450 on a computer case...". That was a solid point; no need to undercut it with distractions.

@@ThomasAllsup-o2h Welcome to 2024.

Don’t think that’s possible as they need clearance for all the cables under the case

Don’t see why MJOLNIR would be better for Air cooling, we basically took MJOLNIR and improved all parts of it for these ones 😁

@@THORZONE Ajajaj... I can't argue with the maker themselves.... Tack för dessa coola chassin!

@@henryyang802 Det var so little så, hope you make någonting riktigt snyggt i din sen 😍

The Sama IM01 (rebranded across multiple countries) has been a staple of the mATX compact case for a while alongside the Asus Prime AP201 and I currently use its rebranded Tecware Fusion variant. To clarify on this: * it does not support ATX, just mATX and ITX, and even with mATX there are design compromises for its slightly smaller footprint than the AP201. a) compromise 1 - bottom mATX mobo connectors are blocked if adding 2 regular 120mm fans. Either add 2 slim fans to squeeze cables in, or 1 regular fan to have space for front panel connectors. b) compromise 2 - mATX mobo is better off still with an SFX PSU mounted in front. Otherwise an mATX mobo+ATX PSU will limit GPU length to short two fan cards. * The max of 7 case fans is only possible if you use a slim CPU air cooler or an AIO as you will have 2 bottom and 2 top fans, 1 rear fan that is 80mm, and a fan bracket to add 2 fans on the side mesh panel facing towards the front of the mobo. Its budget pricing in our country and it seems for many others though makes up for some of its compromises since not many compact cases like this with mATX support exist for under $100. You might see this also rebranded into say the Krux Naos, Intertech IM-1, Galax Revolution 03. Sapphire Nitro M01, etc.

2 totally different products for 2 totally different audience

Steel case, yuck. No thanks.

@@kickazzdrummer666 can you explain what's wrong with steel cases i'm confused isn't steel stronger than aluminum

You're comparing two different cases that's meant for two different audiences. One is built from high-end materials and some CNC machining, other is your usuall sheet metal that's powder coated at best, and feels appropriate for that 60$ price point. It's like commenting on Bugatti video that you can also buy WV Passat because it also is built by WV and is as good

Let me answer some questions where I can be unbiased. It does support a normal 240 AIO, you just need a slim fan on the motherboard side, for the PSU side you can use a standard 120x25fan. Price is not 350-400€, it’s 350-400 USD. Also, international shipping is included, which costs us anywhere from 50-80 usd.

Thanks for the answer! We already briefly interacted on reddit, where you told me about this personal project! :) From this video I understand that the 240 aio fits with a slim fan. My suggestion was to make a little more room to accommodate two full size fans.

wasn't it 250$ before ??

Just a can of air does the job

Just as an FYI no boutique part maker will be able to compete with pricing of a huge company. Scales of economy allow companies like coolermaster to offer things at better prices. As others have pointed out the allure of this case would be the premium unibody aluminum which is always going to be crazy expensive vs a mixed metal/plastic case. Nobody is selling this as some kind of great value. It's a niche enthusiast case

I reviewed it last week!

@@devyn.johnston the one post notification I don't get 😭

I just spoke to them on IG I have the gigabyte oc 3 fan and was told it will fit in the 16l case

@@joem3793 nice! You are referring to the one that is super thick right? The 4 slot card? Do you think you will still be able to put a 240 or 280mm AIO in that thing with that card? I know that for example the 358mm 4080/4090 ASUS Strix OC also does fit (which is one of the biggest and longest ) but still I would like to see him put as much power in that case as possible to see how much you can put in there :)

@@emiel255 idk bro I hope so because cpu cooling needs to be good. Devyn and Jay both mentioned up coming builds hopefully we can get some ideas soon before having to lock in the preorder. Idk if my card is 4 slot but it’s huge I sent them the link to it and they confirmed it’d fit

@@joem3793 oh nice! Well that’s a good foresight I would say! Because im more into its cases that have the as few compromises as possible. Sure there have to be some but a minimum of a 240mm aio and 99% of all GPU cards that will fit are requirements I choose by personally

@@emiel255Yes the GPU doesn’t affect AIO dimensions unless you need to shift the GPU down (and then it only affect if you can use a slim fan on one side or full thickness fan), which you don’t need if you have some custom cables or some sort of angled adaptor for the 12VHPWR connector. Check with Bespoke Baka, he will offer both sleeved and unsleeved cables for the NANOQ series 😁 So to answer your question, in the large one you can have that card and a 280mm AIO without any issues.

7800x3d is super efficient. So it evens out. I see itx builds on pcpartpicker all the time with 7800x3d + 4090 + 750W psu. As long as it's an A tier rated psu, you'll be just fine

The Corsair SF750 is goated.. it can run any card with the right components.

that's the R version I think

It's right next to the motherboard. It can fit an sfx or an sfx-L psu

mjolnirs been out for a while, not sure why youd say it isnt released

Yes! Have a few in that range on my channel already and have some new cases that size that I’ll build in future videos

@@devyn.johnston Awesome! Since that downsizing video you made i've been interested in cases around that size and seeing what the options are/what I could do.

@@devyn.johnstonyou used it on a c stand right ?

They made the feet as a handle so you can just grab it and go.

You can flip the case upside down and the rad will be on top

Watch the video. 2 dust filters included

I understand your point, but I call them handles because that’s what the company named them - thor-zone.com/mini-itx/nanoq/buy/

The Handles function both as “handles” and as “feet”. Personally, my rig is in horizontal orientation when I work, and later I use the Handles to carry the case to our TV for some Cyberpunk2077 😉

@@devyn.johnston understood. thanks.

@@THORZONE got it. horizontally they can be either one. thanks.

Same but the front io isn't cutting it for me

@@yoavhelfman1888 How would the bottom not break in my backpack?

If it's a itx gaming pc then surely you'd want to go 7800x3d, no?

How much are you planning to spend ?

@@zoro-i8u u either remove it or are just careful with ur backpack obviously

nah, id pin

imagine that the whole production cost is @ 50$

@@HowDareYouuSpoiler alert, that doesn’t even cover the production cost of the Shell.

@THORZONE how the heck do u know? This is china, everything is 10-20× lower in price than the usa

@@HowDareYouu We are the ones making these cases

@THORZONE i'm an architect and product designer & i lived in china 5 years, i know the real costs

Yeah definitely dislike the wobble. But I ordered one anyways because apparently in the R model you can fit 2 280 rads and a small distro with a pump like the ek flt.

Dust filters are included

Yea, I talk about that more in the video

It's probably because it's extruded aluminum.
