    We're 50 pages in, were over 40 pages in before all of these changes happened. We went from the suggestion of ~9.8L to +11L, and went from a sleek exterior to a unibody. All of these conversations had already been had. The water cooling chamber was increased because most wanted to have 30mm...

    If all you want to do is shit post, this isn't the place to do so. There has already been a vote on unibody vs the 2 other non-unibody designs. I don't think even 20% wanted the unibody design. I wouldn't buy a unibody design, and I imagine this case could lose around 30-40% buyers just going...

    It works on the A4 because it's so short, on the height. Boxes with a rounded edge really doesn't look good, while a rounded edge brick is fine.

    An ugly case without internal scratches is still going to be an ugly case. A good looking case with internal scratches might still be good looking. Changing the case design to an ugly design just to avoid some damage during manufacture really doesn't make much sense.

    Well the size has gone past what I'm really up for, but anyway. How long did you test it for? Because I have a hard time believing the passive cooling would work out. Did you also connect both CPU and GPU into the waterblock? How are you even testing this in a carton case? Water is pretty...

    Originally there wasn't really talk about 2x120mm radiators, that's something that happened later on. It's now become a concern because of that, and the size, again, is going to increase. Some will walk away when there's no support for 2x120mm radiators, and some will walk away when the size...

    I've already modded my own case, but the PSU intake suffers due to originally poor case design, it would be a hell of a lot of work to make a good air intake. What makes you believe you aren't selfish? If somebody comes in here and says they want 2x240mm radiator compatibility, and add a couple...

    Loque is under 11L, it's just over 10L if you go with 25mm radiator and 16mm fans, which should be enough to deal with a CPU without going on higher RPMs. C4-SFX is going to be over 10L, that's the entire point. With some more compromises after thes 0.75-1L additions, we might end up over 11L...

    L tophat adds 2.57L, ontop of it's base volume of 8.2L, makes it 10.77L. If you use a S+M top hat it's only 10.09 to 10.10L. Current C4-SFX is 9.85L, adding a liter ontop of that puts it at 10.85L, or 10.6L if it's only 0.75L addition. That would make C4-SFX an extreme niche, only for those who...

    I can't imagine a 120AIO is better than an aircooler. Although, I guess you have to stick with the original heatsink on the GPU, the aftermarket ones are too thick.

    A back mounted m.2 ssd would get even hotter in the A4 design. The plate where the mobo is attached will be getting hot since it's all passive exhaust, and both sides will be trapping hot air close to that chamber separator.

    EU has trading laws. If the items is shipped from within the EU, then countries within EU wouldn't be paying import taxes and custom fees.

    So Radiator on top is slightly better, I suspect it'll be a little more significant on lower RPMs. Especially if you're using an open air card. It would be neat if you could try it with whatever open air card you have, on lower RPMs to see the differences. In the configuration when the radiator...

    If you're able to influence them, it'd be great if you could get them to make it possible to buy a 30mm rad and the LT block.

    What's the point of having glass/acrylic panels on both sides? On side is blocked by motherboard tray.... I imagine the backside of the tray isn't very pretty either. I hope you can choose to only buy for one side.
