    Production CONSOLE and CONSWOLE: entry level 2-slot and 3-slot console cases! [Available Now!]

    Hey! I live in Europe. Will we be able to pre-order the n.1 or n.2 options through your website, or do we have to somehow go through your European partner? Also, just so you know, I'm ok to pay again for the FPIO delivery if it means I can get my dirty little hands on the Conswole :D:D

    Production CONSOLE and CONSWOLE: entry level 2-slot and 3-slot console cases! [Available Now!]

    I'd add "T H I C CON S W O L E" as a choice, just so I can giggle every time I look at it when I buy it ?

    NCASE M1 V6 info

    Hello all ! Do you recon the availability of the V6 panels will be the same as the whole case ? Because I'm pretty sure my GPU would enjoy more fresh air than what it gets now (V3 panels).

    Completed Salvo Studios S402: ~9L Steel Console Style Case

    I just stumbled on this thread to say that I might consider buying your S402 to replace my Ncase M1, because desk real estate is crazy in my place, and I'm finally financially stable (ie. I won't be any more because of SFF reasons). I'm gonna read every posts, but the S402 pretty much would...

    Another badly written buildlog : "My huge Ncase M1"

    About that, I'm living in Switzerland and while it's unusually cold last days, the appartment temperature stays between 20 and 22 degrees with minimal heating. The regulations in my state regarding thermal insulation are drastic, so even if my appartment is badly insulated and needs renovation...

    Another badly written buildlog : "My huge Ncase M1"

    Updating the fans by connecting them to the original fan header I've found a tresor in my parents attic. Two slim-fan-header to 4pin-header adapters ! I think one of them came from an old NZXT G10 bracket my brother has left here, and the other comes from... ??? See ?? Isn't that a shody...

    Another badly written buildlog : "My huge Ncase M1"

    Yep, those are velcro ties from the Corsair PSU. I didn't really tidy the cable managment because it's hidden, and I did plan for an upgrade... Not-that-useful-fan-upgrade I indeed tried something : change fans to be extremely sure the swap was actually useless, but hoping for a slightly...

    (bought and installed) new Ncase owner, aircooling questions (sanity check)

    Oh. Thanks for your imput. I really don't understand what is going on with the Strix fan headers - most rigs posters I've seen with similar mods said they had issues with the external fan headers, some had not, and you have the opposite issue. Might take a shot again at plugin the fans in the...

    Another badly written buildlog : "My huge Ncase M1"

    Hi everybody ! This is gonna be a short build log, with only a few badly taken pictures. After having started with a Node 304, fattened my rig in a Jonsbo W1, tried and rejected a Phantek Evolve mITX, tried and rejected a Raven RVZ01 (twice), and having given up to the lords of SFF by building...

    (bought and installed) new Ncase owner, aircooling questions (sanity check)

    Thanks for your help. The Strix fits without its shroud, but I really don't know how the hell people managed to put that GPU inside, especially because of the thickness of the front IO (At least in the v3 I own) (I know actually how people did it, but it seems a harrowing task). And coming from...

    Dr Arboreal's Case Hoarding Therapy Group

    Hi. My name is HZCH and my family pretends I'm a case hoarder. I know it's nothing compared to, say, xcrco, but I've been told by my therapist I had to get aboard this group. So here I am. I've restarted to build my own PC in a Node 304 in 2011, and it was good. Then I decided I wanted...

    (bought and installed) new Ncase owner, aircooling questions (sanity check)

    As far as I know (and according to the pictures), the now-ex-owner has removed some fins out of the 92mm fan hole, which let him screw the MNPCtech bracket in the 92mm mount (and leave place for the cables). So the original PCIe slots are still here, untouched. I'm aware of the shroud ;) That's...
