@Hanakuso please show me those high quality goods.

Card looks short enough that radiator attached next to the card (at the bottom of the card) would still fit in the case.
Delta and ADDA off the top of my head. I don't think these brands are popular on here but they are very high quality outside the gaming world. I only have experience with the Delta and they are somewhat noisy for my taste.@Hanakuso please show me those high quality goods.
I can whistle-blow that a top blow gpu is arround 2°C less ifficent as a radial fan GPU, but the total cooling performance is better and it is also more quiet under load.
Selling my iMac and purchasing this case purely for the purpose of building a ...Just wanted to post saying that this is the most gorgeous case I've ever seen. I wish I still built PCs rather than Macs so that I could buy one.

This has probably already been answered before, but are you using the 3M riser or the Li-heat riser for the final build? Also, can't wait to see the summarized temperature results of various test setups.
The moddiy 30cm riser for $30 also works but you cant skrew it. Maybe I will offer a cheaper version without a riser and ine with 3M.
He decided on the one from 3M, you can see it in the latest prototype shots.
Dan actually tested the LiHeat risers and was not fond of their bend radius and overall quality, IIRC.
After all that didn't he mention he tried another one that was cheaper, shielded and had a good bend radius? Don't remember the exact details and IIRC he was being kind of cryptic about it - or is that the moddiy one that can't be screwed in?

probably the moddiy; http://www.moddiy.com/products/Prem...dE-Extension-Shielded-Cable-Riser-(30cm).html
Look at the user review.

Look at the user review.
But this could technically still work, right?
The way I understood his comment is that it would work but not be able to screw it in, so it'll be messy with cable management.
I'd personally rather pay for the premium option from the get go instead of having to deal with any problems that might rise later in the future with a cheaper version.
Edit:
Dan would you mind using the moddiy riser and taking pics of it, and where it doesn't "screw"? I love the black on it
Decisions decisions...
What dan probably means by that is that it can't be screwed onto the case like the 3M riser can, which means that the GPU is only attached by the bracket and nothing else.
That may be problematic with large cards and the bigger aftermarket coolers some cards have.
So there won't be any messy cable management, the card just wouldn't sit as firm. I think there would be ways around that, though.
Most stores list a bulk price of ~$98 on the 3M which scares me a bit - Means the case could end up costing around $220-250 I'd guess.
After spending another $150 or so on a non-noisy low profile CPU cooler and an SFX/-L psu you're looking at up to $400 for the setup.
What do Silverstone use in the RVZ01/FTZ01?
I'd be much keener on the riser-less version so that I could buy one of the moddiy/alternative ones myself unless the price/bulk discount goes down considerably.
The Corsair unleashes the bulldog diy 4k gaming pc, which looks ugly imo, but got interesting cooling solutions and 600W SFX PSU with 92mm cooler, model SF600. I bet they will sell it separately. It's fully modular and corsair alrdy got some fine silent psus. Looks like this psu and new 700w platinum one from silverstone are the best candidates for silent A4 build.
ha, the only thing that I found interesting is the PSU. Is it a SFX-L or a true SFX?

Looks similar to the Silverstone AR05. Looks like it will perform good but those protruding pipes will make it incompatible with many motherboards.Looks like there is a new 33mm high cooler to try: http://www.techpowerup.com/213116/reeven-unveils-a-trio-of-low-profile-cpu-coolers.html
Would be interesting if Corsair released their H5SF separately since it has such a tiny rad while still being able to cool quite well.
There would probably be ample space for it if you mounted it to the matrix of holes in the top panel of the A4,
