2 Slot GPU cooling and Velka 5vs7
Post Body

Hey guys, the Velka cases are looking very appealing to me and I wanted to get your input on the 2 Slot GPU cooling issue. The Velka 5 at 5.7L fits a 2slot card, so it seems reasonable to think that it'd have similar GPU thermals to something like a dan a4, sliger sm550, or ghost S1 without extra fans blowing on the gpu. In your opinion, is this sufficient space for GPU cooling? The Velka 7 is slightly larger at 7.5 litres, but supports a 3 slot GPU (or larger aftermarket cooler if you preferred). It seems it is just over 2cm taller and wider in the current designs. What're your opinions? Is it worth the 2cmx2cm and nearly 2 litre increase to support a 3 slot graphics card? Or is the 2 Slot restriction of the Velka 5 going to be adequate? Another thought I have is, the Velka 7 is as wide as a 120mm fan, meaning you could throw one on the back of the case for exhaust (or intake, if that ends up offering better cooling) if necessary, increasing airflow some and only increasing volume by the volume of the fan. The Velka 5, in contrast, would require that you stick to fans under 110mm (so most likely 92mm fans)
