Enclosure Cryorig's 2016 mITX cases

[confusis]

Sounds like a win, but I feel it may be too late to capture the needed backers

 

[Kmpkt]

Not sure if that will push them over the edge on that Kickstarter : /

 

[iFreilicht]

Uhh, just 30% after such a long time? That's rough.

 

[zovc]

Taku is a really cool case idea and I'd love to build systems for a business in it, but I definitely can't afford to pitch in for the kickstarter.

Unfortunate.

 

[T_Tank]

ouch! while a awesome concept I think the cost regardless of what it takes to manufacture I think the price people would had to pay is a hard pill to swallow. Look at the HP omen case thats 500 bucks case alone!

 

[VegetableStu]

hmm o_o

 

[SeñorDonut]

hmm o_o

OwO what's this?

 

[VegetableStu]

I've no idea ._. anyone backed?
I'm guessing they went ahead to produce anyway and let backers have early access??

 

[W1NN1NG]

I still think the price was outrageous

 

[Phuncz]

OLA or bust, too hip to be square.

The Taku was a great idea but yeah way too large, bad internal design. That fan in front of the PSU seems to have no function whatsoever, just blowing air through the case where there are no components. They should have put the GPU in front of the PSU and motherboard so it could support full length GPU's and still be much less wide in total. Two 2.5" SSD's could easily be tucked in somewhere as well.

 

[VegetableStu]

Well guess what. (sorry @K888D )

I wish it wasn't such a poor design. :/

 

[alexep7]

I wish it wasn't so expensive

I can't help thinking that it would make an amazing cutting board with built in drawer for your knives and stuff.

 

[Mortis Angelus]

The Taku looks very stylish, but I worry those pinholes on the top won't be so great for ventilation.

I'm thinking: throw out that SFX PSU and 3.5" drive bay, then in with HDPLEX 400W or G-Unique 400W PSU. Blower-style GPU, and then Mod a Corsair H5 SF with longer tubes and place it where the SFX PSU should go. Also add a Slim, slot-loaded Blu-ray (where the 3.5" bay used to be) while you are at it.

What do you think? Impossible?

 

[CC Ricers]

I wonder if they'll ever release the OLA. That was the more interesting of their two cases for me.

yes and with the USB hub on the side so you can charge your Iphone and watch youtube cooking videos while choping onions on it!
