I was strung along for half a year. I initially purchased at the beginning of July. I didn't get my case until the end of September. The case was not usable as it couldn't fit a graphics card that was listed as compatible. The motherboard couldn't be screwed in because the holes didn't line up. The g-unique power supply could not be installed due to fitment issues. Sergiiua offered me a 50% discount on a new purchase which I made in October. I get strung along until last week where he finally tells me my order was damaged in transit. He refunded my money on the second order and I'm now stuck with the original case that I can't really use. I initiated a dispute on PayPal for the initial purchase and it shows status closed with no explanation. I'm beyond livid at this point and I can't with good faith recommend this case to anyone.

How much did you pay for yours?

would it be possible to have one of these extended a bit to house an hdplex 300 ac/dc and a hdplex 400? that would be so tiny and cute without the power brick. just imagine one with a gigabyte 1080 mini and a ryzen setup :)

when ordering, you can specify your own sizes for the case.

Hi Sergiiua.
I'm just wondering if you can go into detail what will come in the parcel if I get the power supply with it?
I'm assuming it comes with all cables and everything needed considering the price, but I am unsure.

On top of this, just wondering if it'd be able to close out the top of the case? I.E I don't want holes in the top of the case, but on both sides with heavy ventilation. Just to prevent dust from coming in from the top.
Cheers

yes there will be everything necessary (the pico of the PSU and the brick modified DELL)
yes we can do without ventilation.

I got my case (Batch #8) a few days ago.

Here is my config:
- Asrock B350 ITX
- AMD Ryzen 1600
- 8GB HyperX 2666 MHz
- Sapphire RX560 4GB
- M.2 Samsung 960 250GB
- PSU G-Unique 220W

I asked for the 4.1L version of the case as the GPU is 210mm long.
I though the GPU was never going to fit in, but I managed in the end after partially removing its cover to put in the case.
Notes:
- there is no space for a 2.5" drive with a GPU that long but I was expecting it.
- on the extender, the PCI port for the GPU was not properly aligned. I couldn't plug the GPU in it, I would have needed to have it an extra 1-2 mm away from the IO shield. Thus, I just unscrewed totally the extender, plugged the GPU in, and left it like that (the GPU is totally packed and can't move at all).
- the power button is blocking the way to put the IO shield for the motherboard. As I was impatient to test the case and didn't had the proper tools to unscrew the button, I didn't mounted it for now, maybe later.

Some pictures:

Overall, I am happy with the case. :)
Even though at the beginning I thought I wouldn't be able to fit the GPU in, after unscrewing a lot of parts, I managed to get it in. A few of mm wider and longer case would have helped.

Last news.

So the party 9 is sent without counting one case. For him, another lid was ordered.
We are waiting for lot 10 from the factory. They promised to send before the holidays but something went wrong.

Party 11 is in line. The plant does not start work until it sent the current lot (lot 10).

Party 12 will be completed ahead of schedule on January 15, since enough collic.

Thank you for your understanding and patience.
