update: sergiiua just answered me about my side pannels:



Im mad that he never told us anywhere that the design was going to be changed, at least he could have asked if I wanted the original design and risjk a bit of deformation or get the new one. when I ordered the case it was still the previous design and it was much more beautiful, right now it looks dumb since both ends of the pattern are not the same, im very disapointed about his lack of judgement. Ill ask around at my local metal shops to maybe get it done properly

ugh I feel you man. the straight sides definitely messes up the aesthetics.

haha thats not what I meant, I actually like the straight line it looks better with the whole design of the case, its the back end of the design that does not end straight that I dislike

oh but it doesn't end straight in the original design. so I thought that's what you liked. Oh well, you're right that it is inconsistent.

Anyone who received their case from one of the most recent batches want to share pics of your case and build? I only really see pictures from earlier batches and want to know how some of the more recent batches look, and also love looking at sff builds anyway so it will satisfy my hunger for a little while

my pictures were from batch 14, honestly if you REALLY want the customisation sergiiua offers go for it, if not go for a dancase or m1. personnally I went with this mainly because I got custom dimensions on this one which allows me to basically have a dancase but with triple sloth gpu (1080ti strix fits) i'll post pictures when the 1180 comes out and I build the pc

I already ordered mine, Its on batch 17 so there will be some time before I see it, I got the 5.9L version because I want to go as small as possible without compromising too much. I just want to see what some people did with their builds, I will be posting pictures of my build once I get the case in and get everything put together.

I think that price is without the riser or shipping, considering the other case is listed as $129 but is $199 on the order form. If riser+shipping is $70 (199-129) then this one should be $129 (129+70), which is a lot cheaper than anything like it. Is the price lower because its fully steel or something? (Is that the main difference between the stl and the 6.8L SX version?)

like that.

The price is lower because it is made of steel and there are fewer details in it. it is also easier to manufacture.

Cutting steel with a laser is also cheaper.

Super excited about the new 7.1L case, just a few questions:
1)The gpu height compatibility is listed as <140mm, do you think it would fit a msi gaming x 1080ti (140mm height)
2)What would you estimate shipping plus a riser for the 7.1L case to the US to be?

Soon we will check this case for compatibility with accessories.

Delivery to any country $ 40

This might be a really dumb question but, I know it mentioned that the maximum length for the gpu for the case should be <305mm but do you think a Powercolor Red Devil RX480 (https://www.powercolor.com/product?id=1496284358) which has a length of 310mm would fit?
Not the manufacturer, but someone in earlier posts was able to get the manufacturer to make him a case with slightly different dimentions than normal, so you can probably ask Sergii if he can make the case slightly longer to accommodate the GPU.

By the way, for the steel version, are the side panels stiffer or stronger than the aluminum version? I plan on taking this case to travel in a carry-on suitcase so I'm paying attention to durability and which version to pick so it lasts the longest time. I'm not that concerned about weight.
