even then. the lack of concentricity and support on the fan will cause issues. there is a reason why boats, fans, and submarines all use a relatively common design. this thing will destroy itself quite quickly. twist a straw in your fingers loosely then with one hand slowly add pressure (simulating a bearing wearing) and apply pressure until it eventually wears unevenly and seizes. I could see that thing flopping as it was spinning almost immediately, personally I wouldn't expect it to last much more than a years worth of use with the current design.

@@hunterromano5562 I think it will be just as reliable as your standard axial fan in a PC case. These fans are in use in HVAC equipment. I have one in my furnace and mini split AC. My furnace is over 25 years old and the fan is still running quite strong. Plus you see that design used in industrial equipment.

Honestly for the manufacturing complexity and how well thought out the build process is for a small form factor case that can accommodate a full size gpu the price seems super fair to me. When they started alluding to the price I thought it was going to be in the 600-700 range. If I didn't have a ton of storage drives and it being too early for a system rebuild/upgrade I would consider this case if I was going for a small desktop unit. It looks super clean and well done unlike a lot of small desktop form factors that look imo like pretentious crap, hopefully meshless does well I like their approach and look forward to more designs from them.

I was also expecting a much higher price. $350-$400 is around what those NZXT H1 cases were going for (those included a 120mm AIO + SFX PSU, but were not made as well as these, nor could they accommodate massive GPUS). This thing seems quite fairly priced. If I was in the market for a new case, I’d be taking a long look at this one.

@@FREQQLES Yeah, you are correct that they said it was designed for i9s, so they did set a high expectation... However, to be fair, there's not many SFF cases that wouldn't thermal throttle with that hardware... If you're an SFF builder, then you're well aware that you have to make some trade-offs for the form factor... Also bare in mind that they didn't mention undervolting; again something that SFF builders immediately lean heavily on... For goodness sake, theres plenty of examples of 14900k owners struggling to cool their CPU with a 360AIO and a crap ton of fans!... And finally, don't forget that that was throttling in Cinebench, a 100% synthetic load that pulls 250-300W with that CPU - even a 14900K only pulls an approximate maximum of 120W when gaming. My point being; it was a mistake to make such a broad statement that set expectation unreasonably high to begin with... Your average PC builder wouldn't neccessarily take for granted that there will have to be a bit of a trade off somewhere. And yes, I know I talked about gaming a lot, and not productivity workflows, but with a productivity setup you'd be erring towards a compromise on case size, using a larger case that can accommodate one or even two 360mm radiators to cool the beheomoth that is the 14900K!...

I hope these guys do good. 360 for this case for such a niche audience and design is pretty reasonable I think. Having something this small, that can fit this much power is difficult to begin with. Add onto that, the ease of assembly, and incredibly clever and well thought out design, make this case almost a no brainier for someone who was going to spend as much as the rest of the components in the system cost already. My main concern is how reliable the fan will be and how easy it will be to get a hold of a new one since meshless is the only one that makes it, because it's so non-standard. I hope these guys do some great business, because it would be such a shame for something like this to die and users can only use this case for as long as the fan lives.

There's actually a single server (that I know of) that uses a type of cross-flow fan. The Dell VRTX came out in 2012 and it's an "under the desk" solution for branch offices that need local servers. It's a type of blade server specifically designed to be deployed in an office space. They use four squirrel cage fans (cross flow) to cool the blades and several more traditional fans to cool the main board and hard drives. I use one as a home server and it's noise levels are very good (compared to other servers). It does sound just like a bit of white noise, exactly as you described. The one downside is the heat generation. While the VRTX has good acoustics, that doesn't stop it's massive heat generation from its 4x1200 watt PSUs. With each blade running 2x Xeon CPUs, you end up with 8 CPUS running in a small form factor server with 24 hard drives in its integrated SAN. It goes beyond a space heater into the realm of a house heater or sauna.

That case is frankly one of the most thoughtful PC case ever built. Not as easy as a mid tower or full tower, but for an itx case it looks rather easy to put stuff in correctly & easily. It, and the build quality rather justify the price.

"Expensive" is relative for that cross flow fan. A single Corsair LL RGB 120mm fan goes for more money than that. Sure, more bling but if we're going for function over form, it's not out of this world pricing. Also, this'd push more air than a single 120mm so you'd be needing 2-3x of them, making for similar price anyway when buying cheapo fans. Easily palatable pricing if it solves your needs. Hope to see them in more SFF builds!

My 230V 500/800/1200/2000W heater in the car uses a fan like that, it has been running since the 1970ths every winter. I will never give up.

The acronym is ingenious. Airflow, static pressure, sound...

I am sure someone noticed, but at 14:16 the acronym made me chuckle. was that intentional? :)

It's impressive to see how effective the crossflow fan is in this setup. It's a bit on the pricy side but the build quality and unique features justify the cost in my opinion.

I have that portable cross flow fan in the video which is supposed to be for laptop cooling. It doesn't quite work on gaming laptops, but after my desktop went dead and I decided to just use egpu on my work laptop, I figured out that this kind of thing is great for improving airflow on ultra slim laptops. With some thermal limit unlocking with throttlestop it makes a great choice for gaming. In fact it's even possible to use VR on such setup.

"Maybe it's because your voice is captured by two microphones" That is exactly what it is. They should be cutting the sections when one person is talking through the opposite mic, but it seems like the editing is being a bit lazy when mixing the audio. It would be an issue if two people were talking at the same time, but they generally aren't talking at the same time it makes it a stupidly easy fix that just isn't being done.

Please disable multiple audio mics, there is a chorus effect that is really off putting, just put a gate plugin at the front, adjust it's input to allow audio after a certain threshold, you might have to go back to the team and ask for specific placement of mics and lavalier's to ensure best audio quality but leaving multiple mics on is not the way to go!

Planning on my next PC to be a ITX or M-ATX build, and considering designing a custom 3D case for it. This sounds like a wonderful fan solution for me to keep in mind when the time comes.

Honestly this is one of the best small factors I have ever seen. It looks extremely easy to build in and the fans seems to just work for general use or gaming. The price is totally justifiable in my opinion, if I ever going to build a small factor, this will definitely be something I would consider buying.

The audio in this video is awful.

I suspect that their vocals crossed over from one person to the other. It would be easy to cut out one person at a time, but take some work if they are both talking.

Let’s just appreciate how Linus consistently uploads great content

Wow, very interesting product and concept. I really like that this is something actually innovative, instead of the extremely incremental changes we normally see these days. Now I want to see a detailed review of it from Steve.

I actually really like this idea for case fans. I could see one of these with one of those thin 1U radiators making for a very slim system with a lot of heat capacity.

You do indeed have the best fans Linus.

and you have the best seed

$359? That's it?

I had been playing with this kind of idea in my head for like 2 years now. Although beyond just making a sheet of air to cool compontents, I want one that is very long to mount along a headboard and make a nice gentle and quiet flow of air down onto a bed.

Honestly, this is a premium product, not an overpriced one. Extrusions that size are *INSANELY* expensive, for one thing.

Eh, if they can sell enough of them the price drops dramatically. Extrusions are extremely mass producible and efficient as a manufacturing technique, once you paid of the tooling that is

Love LTT but that joke at 9:30 was a bit off color

Lately Linus’ jokes have been falling super flat. You don’t have to make a pun or joke all the time to be entertaining please. Example; the fan joke was lame and a stretch. The asus one was irrelevant and not funny. The last AMD challenge had a lot of these along with the latest wan. Most of the time in previous videos they’re funny, but lately man they just don’t hit cause they feel forced, irrelevant, attention seeking.

I like the dad jokes

I would actually consider buying this. It is expensive, but it's not extortionate. I'm not a fan of the carry handle, though. It's a little confusing how they didn't see that as a problematic design. Everything else seems really well thought out and engineered.

“Wooooooow” Brilliant video. I’m going to buy this setup.

That's a great design, I dig it. So glad to see someone do it... side panel box fans (big fans) and crossflow should be a lot more common imo. So tired of the mess of multiple fans.. now with more RGB than ever (and higher prices to go with it)!

I had one of these to cool my laptop back in the day, it was a rotary fan that went along the whole back of the case to blow the whole length, it helped a lot!, I don't use a laptop anymore but it was very good at the time.

These would be such a good choice for a flat in desk built chassis

I'm not gonna lie, it is expensive, but I expected it to be absolutely unreasonably high based on the way you guys were talking about it up until the end. I think it's a relatively solid price point for a limited run of a unique, high-quality enthusiast item

Multiple mics are nice when edited right. good video, funky editing.

as someone who doesn't like small pcs i actually like this one and would build a system in this. I like the design and being able to have it sit on my desk and not blow hot air straight but blow it up into my room is a nice feature for me

These vertical fans were on the Cooler Master Stacker case back in 2004. I have one. It blew air across the entire motherboard. It was cool.

Every time I watch a new LTT video, I immediately think that I'm watching an old video.

Funny, I was considering exactly those sorts of fans a whole bunch of years ago for a case I wanted to build out of wood.

I have a hard drive that has a cross flow blower fan inside. It sucks air in through vents on the front of the drive bezel, and blows it around the aluminum disk assembly unit, control boards and power supply. It's a Fujitsu Eagle M3251 from 1984...!

These fans can be much quieter than normal fans. They're great for air purifiers too because they tend to mesh better with square filters. a company needs to make axial flow fans that fit AIO form factors, into 2,3, or 4 slot fan areas, , perhaps 2 thinner fans side by side with one pushing air out and one sucking air in, that would make the assembly much thinner, though still thicker than the fans would be. I swear there would be room in many cases I'm familiar with and they would certainly fit on the outside of a case. You wouldnt get the full advantage of an axial fan though unless the case maker designed the fan slot to reduce obstructions for linear fans though. perhaps some kind of cowling might help but that would increase the bulk of the system. Anyway, ideal use case is slapped onto the radiator of an AIO drawing the hot air out .

That meshless case looks amazing, cant wait till Im getting to the point of reviewing tech like this 😄

I needed to see more of their goat battle!

I’ve never seen that style of fan other than on an old Yaesu ham radio I’ve got. Works really well and is very quiet.

$360 is a lot of money, but for how finely made that case is, and the great engineering you get, that's a bargain. This is without a doubt one of the best SFF cases you guys have reviewed yet! I was expecting something crazy like $500+ but for a low-production number SFF with this amazing build quality, that's an amazing price.

I've used one of those as a case fan, salvaged from a very old photocopier (Canon or Panasonic, idk for sure). They're called "squirrel cage", I believe. They were loud and required 24V, but it was fun anyway. I don't think they were any good as case fans, as this design seems optimized for pressure.
