I personally think the Nano S is one sexy case. If I was building an iTX build, that would be my choice.

In ITX cases, thats why its generally recommended if your not going to water cool to have a blower style cooler. The PSU should have its fan at the bottom taking its own air in so it shouldnt conflict with the GPU.

I have both...and I can wholeheartedly recommend the Nano S.

 

It's SO much easier to build in, and there won't be any of the compromises that you may (or may not) have to make when building in the 250D.

If you're thinking of using any AIOs or custom liquid-cooling loops, you have more options with the Nano S.

Right okay but what about the GPU being  so close  to the psu?

I was concerned about that as well, but I haven't seen any abnormal temps with the Zotac GTX 970 that I'm using in it.

Even if you're using a GPU with an open fan design, I don't think you'll have any issues.

Sorry for trying to revive an old topic ,anyway i was curious about your actual temps on the gpu at full load.

Thanks
