There isn't much information outside of this forum for the Serbian-X. Damn commies. *No offense to any communists.* or *Adidas track suit jockeys.*

Chimera Industries Cerberus: The 18L, mATX, USA-made enclosure
- Thread starter PlayfulPhoenix
- Start date
Cerberus-x is standard cerberus with 61mm height increase.
By default it’s compatible mini itx and atx (but not micro atx)
Correct. You could install mATX in a Cerb-X but the lowest row of mATX standoffs are missing so it would lack some support under the PCIe slots. This could be partially remedied by putting some stick on plastic standoffs there.
EDIT - note that the standoffs in both cases are pressed in so you can't just screw extras in where you need them.
Would a full ATX motherboard interfere with a thick bottom rad if the bottom slots are left unpopulated?

Though, I may just go with cementing a few posts in place. Would be great if Sliger would charge me some extra cash to do a custom solution for me .

I just spent the last two days re-reading 134 odd pages to glean as much information as I could.
I am forward to a Cerberus-x. Can stop whining about lack of decent Am4 itx now.

In fact i’ve tried a watercooling solution in my cerberus-x.
First advice/requirement : just use 120mm fan or 120/240 mm radiator at the bottom.
Evertyhing thicker than 25mm fan will cover bottom of your motherboard, HOWEVER, you can easily offset them to be the closest possible of the side panel freeing enough space to rout cable, m.2 ssd, etc.
But bottom pci slot will be blocked with a radiator at the bottom.
Yes it does, and yes you could. What's more you can easily fit an absurdly large PSU such as my ATX 1500W. This would be on the rear bracket so reduced clearance on CPU means you'd want an AIO cooler for that.
... why do I have white christmas stuck in my head when reading this threa--

Let's hope a new batch will happen before Christmas..

I really would like one of these cases, and will be checking regularly for an order page to be created.
Perhaps I missed it somewhere but when can I order one of these?
Not yet.
Seems the site will be providing more detail on options and accepting orders in coming days (max a week or two, not months).

As per the link above, orders begin November 17th, provided there are no delays.

Unfortunately the fans that I want are 140mm x 25mm. It shouldn't be much of a problem though since I don't need the bottom slot anyways. I'm only getting one GPU and the onboard audio will be more than enough .
So there is room for everything, I'll just be blocking expansion slots?
Anyone have any color choices in mind yet? @Phuncz says red, which after seeing @MarcParis 's build log looks to be gorgeous.
I'm going Slate panels and Black roof with handle kit. Leaning towards the front sfx psu option but may go with the rear mount. I have an H100v2 that I would like to keep using if possible.
To think I had my X370 Taichi on eBay and was getting offers last week. I cancelled the listing when the announcement was made for CerbX going into production.
Close one!

Forget any 140mm fan/radiator at bottom as feet are covering screw location...you can put 1x140mm or 2x120mm at bottom..
So I would be unable to mount a 280mm rad on the bottom? I can't move the feet? I'm planning to put the fans on top in a pull configuration.
I used a 280mmx25mm rad in bottom of my Cerberus with 25mm fans, fit great other than my motherboard SATA connector pushed into the fan housing lightly.
Some updates:
We should have colors for preview on forums here next week, pre-order up not long after that.
Slot covers on production units will be black powder coated to match chassis.
Ball studs will be staying 6 per side panel.
More to come!
