The InWin Chopin Pro is rated at 43mm heatsink height.
The BD790i heatsink height is 37mm.
I am adding a 15mm Noctua 120mm fan.
With the included FAN bracket, the fan assembly height is 18mm.
Note: MinisForum only includes M2.5x25mm screws for the fan.
I found M2.5x16mm flat head screws for the 15mm fan.
From the standoff, the Chopin has 48 mm of clearance.
With the PCB, the motherboard is 39mm. With the Fan, the height is 57mm.
I am missing 9mm.
The Chopin the mesh side panel is embossed by 8mm.
The fan needs to be moved back by 43mm to let the Chopin side panel slide in place. The fan will be held by a custom bracket.
The fan is able to clear the ram and a M.2 NVME riser.
The motherboard headsink is 92mm wide. A 92mm fan mounting option would have been nice.
The Chopin is always a tight fit!
I was considering using the Chopin MAX for its 54mm of clearance. This would bring 11mm additional height room.
However, it is likely that the fan would be under the back case edge. Using the back fan bracket may prevent fan removal.
