Can't wait for a teardown on this bad boy!! I mostly want to see the cooling setup - Corsair made some fun stuff before, for previous SFF cases.

I'm wondering if it will have a PCIe slot on the board or if it's purely going to rely on the integrated graphics, which are admittedly very good.

PCIe slot with DisplayPort passthrough would be excellent.

I would not expected it but what do I know.

Regarding cooling. The side mesh makes me think that the cooling concept will be looking a lot like for the HP Z2 G1a. However, there appears to be some cooling system also on the other side, which one can not really see well on the published images. So I am curious too how that thing will look like on the inside.

Indeed. That's why the design looked so familiar.
So the cooling design is very similar to the EVO-X2, other than it featuring an integrated (Flex-ATX?) PSU.

Occulink makes only limited sense for a Strix Halo system.
The whole point of Strix Halo is its iGPU. If you don't use it, you are just burning money.

In case you want to upgrade the GPU years down the line to extend the life of the system, there are 2 M.2 slots. Just get an occulink adapter.

It's kind of big …? Custom heatsink, custom PCB, no need for a dGPU thanks to the expensive SoC, and then just the size of a Velka 3?
