    Prototype Project Orthrus - Smallest SLI mATX case (V2)

    Yeah so VirtualLink is interesting for VR in this case for another reason, which is that it means GPUs will have their own onboard USB controller. That means you could toss two GPUs with VirtualLink into this case, run two Windows VMs, passing through a GPU to each, and have a single-box...

    Yeah I tried putting the fans in a pull configuration (above the radiator). From my recollection, the problems included at least 1) mounting (given the case's incorrect hole spacing and screw clearance problems), 2) even less room for GPU power wiring below, and 3) an even more severe clearance...

    Production case SX1 6.8L / SX2 7.5L by Custom_MOD

    Yeah the H100i pipes are pretty thick/inflexible, which I didn't realize when purchasing. My constraints were that I needed 1) a warranty that would cover damage to other system parts if the AIO leaks, and 2) either no RGB or RGB that can be turned off (or nearly off) -- this PC is in a tiny...

    This is not quite what I had intended to post, and I will preface this by saying that Sergii issued me a partial refund (although even that took over a month to arrive). I was very hopeful about the case, and I understand this is basically a one-man hobby operation. However, the product costs...

    Production case SX1 6.8L / SX2 7.5L by Custom_MOD

    My batch 6 case (v3.x 9.3L AIO in white) arrived here in the U.S. (NY), at long last (shipped December 26). Unfortunately both of the side panels are bent inwards quite a bit (the box was fairly beat up after spending 1.5 months in transit). Going to try to straighten them, but otherwise...

    Have you received yours yet? Still waiting on my batch 6 AIO to arrive here in NYC. Been a month since it shipped, and the last Ukrposhta update is from 12/28, saying "Departure from outward office of exchange." So presumably it's somewhere between Ukraine and the U.S. now...

    Same here- Ukrposhta’s tracking system has been down for a while, and no updates since 12/28.

    Or get a Samsung Odyssey (/other WinMR HMD) and enjoy all the free USB ports and wall/ceiling space :p Still waiting on my batch 6 case to arrive, so my VR monster can be unleashed from its current laptop confines.

    Got my tracking number at last! Now let's see how long it takes to arrive in the US.

    Production case SX1 6.8L / SX2 7.5L by Custom_MOD

    As of today, mine has apparently been built and will be shipped sometime soon. Now hoping to receive it in the US by sometime in early January, so I can turn this giant stack of component boxes into a little PC (the 1080 Ti box alone is bigger than the SFX Mini).

    Nope- mine is apparently still being painted, so will probably take a while to arrive. Hoping it'll be shipped this week!

    Production case SX1 6.8L / SX2 7.5L by Custom_MOD

    Yep. I'll be replacing an essentially silent laptop (XPS 15) with this, so just trying to see if this setup can be silent at idle / not need to be underclocked for comfort (as seems to be a problem with running something like an i7 7700K (91W TDP) in a DAN A4 - e.g. see...
