What is the PSU position, exhaust or cables on top?

Great I idea with the GPU blow through exhaust and overhaul the case is looking good with a thoughtful design!
Just the case feet are a deal breaker for me. Still hoping for classic four feet like nr200p and ncase ...just looks sleeker

After all these changes, will the configuration of 2x80mm fans remain available?
@dondan Have you changed the feet from the first post? Because in the first page picture the feet look to be horizontally aligned with the case and in the latest CAD model they seem to "get wider" to sides and front/back when going up from the bottom. Anyway, straight feet would look much better, as they seem to be in first post. I think there are more people than just me concerned with the new looks 
- Was talking about the HDD if it is possible to rootate 180 so that the connectors are facing on the opposite side to hide the cables better. But then again I was asking your suggestions where can we possibly place our psu/usb/sata cables. From your renderings it might be at the case floor but its tight. Of course I could place them in between the radiator and PSU or top of PSU (thus no need in rotating the hdd @180 , but for me it would just be laziness.
@dondan At this point near the end of revisions do you have any idea/estimate based on previous case releases when you might be able to take orders? I think I saw you were having Lian Li manufacture them but I could be wrong, have you worked with them before and do you know what the lead time would be?
Been looking for a case to move my hardware to from my SM560 for the past year and finally, this is it. Fingers crossed that it finally makes it into production.
I'm a huge fan of ghetto-modding GPUs and this is absolutely what I was looking for: GPU at the top w/ 2x 140mm and dual 140mm fans on a C14S. As others have mentioned, huge respect to the fact that this case is embracing the inverted layout, the 140mm fans, the 3.25-slot GPU thickness, the rounded corners and the unusual feet. Certainly adds uniqueness.
Any thoughts on color choices, by the way? I really like the "stormtrooper look" of brighter front and sides with black top, hope that's an option in the future or that we can buy extra panels. If not, I guess cerakoting would do too.

I kind of like the feet. Gives me wilba tech thermal vibes
There are two psu position in this case but I think you refer to the slice view. On this it is cable on top.
No this feature was droped because there is no hardware configuration that will benifit from it.

I didn't changed the alignment. As I said you can remove the center part so you have nearly the old look.
While this is physical possible for the SSD you will not be able to connect the SSD. Not enough space.
Do you mean on a radiator , then I need radiator specs.
For cable management just wait for my tests and pictures. On the C14S config bottom isn't a exhaust zone it is intake. I think 2x 140mm on the side is more than enough exhaust.
No
Also on the lower position the radiator will be still the highest point.
@dondan can the 2x 2.5" ssd slots become modular so it could also be converted into a 1x 3.5 hdd" slot if needed.
