Yes, XTD is compatible with 120mm AIO's if you select the Top XL-Vent panel type. You can then use the slots on the top of the panel to secure the AIO. Here are some diagrams of the clearance you have to work with:
Hey guys, thanks for the comments.
The CG7 Cravo is compatible with low profile expansion cards only. The current top gaming GPU in this form factor is the GTX 1050 Ti such as this one:

I think a few other manufacturers also...
Yes that point has come up quite a bit since showing the design. I'm hoping to make it compatible with a dual slot Low Profile PCIe card, by removing out 2 of the side fans there will be space to fit one. I just need to figure out how this would work with the rear panel.
APUs are set to make a big comeback in 2018 with AMD's Ryzen/Vega based AM4 chips leading the way. Powerful processing and graphics on a single chip with the latest connectivity will make them a great choice for low cost gaming PC's or advanced Home Theatre PC's.
Introducing the HT5, a compact...
For anyone wondering what the wood panels look like, here are some example build photos:
OAK
WALNUT
CHERRY
As these panels are made from real wood the colour tones, textures and wood grain patterns can vary between panels. In other words each panel is completely unique. Here are...
Thanks for the great feedback everyone!
The next case I'm working on is an ITX based HTPC style low profile case that is targeting the upcoming high performance Ryzen APU's. I am also working with another designer who is adapting this design for use with M-ATX motherboards, but it will...
Thanks! It took a while to source the right material and tune the laser cutting process, but I'm really pleased with the end result and I'm glad you like them too :)
The Zotac GTX 1080 Ti Mini does not fit unfortunately, the case can fit an ITX card up to 186mm in length whereas this card is 211mm long.
The top card that the case can currently fit is the Gigabyte GTX 1080 ITX.
NOCTUA NH-L12S
Noctua recently released an updated version of the NH-L12, replacing the dual fans (92x25mm + 120x25mm) with a single 120x15mm fan. Other changes include an increase in height of the heatsink up to 70mm (was 66mm) to allow fan clearance above standard height RAM.
I ordered one...
Ah, I see what your saying. Personally I would consider the power button + I/O panel the side of the case, but that's just me.
Below are a couple of photos that may help clear things up, first shows the IO panel and rear panel:
This is what I tend to consider the front of the case...
I see what you mean from the photo, don't worry though don't exit to the side of the IO PCB, the cables were bent round for the purpose of taking the photo so you could see the insides of the system without the cables blocking the view.
There is no V2 planned currently. New panel options are...
Aesthetics are subjective and you can't please everyone! :) There are plenty of people who love the way the case looks though. If its any consolation you can configure the look of the case with different vent patterns and panel colours.
In its standard configuration the LZ7 uses SFX power supplies and has 67mm of CPU cooler clearance, enough space to fit compact coolers such as the Noctua NH-L12 or Scythe Big Shuriken 2, allowing you to comfortably and quietly cool a 65w TDP CPU.
For those who want more CPU cooling potential...

Yes the Kube case is about 30mm longer, 2mm higher and 15mm wider making it just under 9 litres.
The LZ7 can fit a GPU up to 186mm in length, the Kube can fit a GPU up to 216mm in length. The Zotax GTX 1080 Ti Mini is 211mm in length.
