Increase volume from 9.8L to 10.5L to support MSI Suprim X 30XX?

  • Yes, worth the trade off to be more compatible with components

    Votes: 116 24.6%
  • No, not worth it b/c it is not better than the ROG 30XX, which fits now at <10L

How did you reach a height of 216 mm for the 25 mm alphacool radiator bonus?

1.5 mm high panels
riser space 2mm
170mm motherboard
space between motherboard and fan 1 mm?
15 mm fan
25 mm radiator
1.5mm bottom panel

I used to be a pipe fitter (HVAC system installer). When we looked at the blueprints, the numbers on the paper didn't always line up with reality of what we physically had to install.

I quickly learned that a 2d picture doesn't always translate to the 3d space you are working in.

It might have been answered already, but here it goes.

The mesh panels can be dissassembled with ease in order to clean them?

Also, do you know the company you will be using for shipping?

I think it's country dependant if I am not mistaken.

Yes. 2 Countersunk M3 screws (comes in the box) or use your own M3 thumbscrews to remove Top Panel, the Side Mesh Panels are slotted in, so they can be removed without any screws.

Shipping via the China Postal Service via EMS (for most countries outside of Asia). This is best option for US and Countries near China.

For EU, I'm looking into DHL, but it's extra $10-$15, not sure if we I can get the dynamic shipping rate to work in time for batch 1.

Screws on the back of the case, right? So even if you use thumbscrews they won't be visible?

In Europe... EMS would also be nice since DHL will mean almost certainly customs. And on a $200 + shipping case we could look into north of $80.

Though I still need to decide:

a) If ill be lucky enough to be able to buy this sku.
b) If I wouldn't rather wait for the bi-color since it will make more sense with my living room. Aaaa decisions!

@Wahaha360 are we going to be able to rotate the PSU orientation in the T1 as previously planned? there wasn't any mention of it in the instruction manual.

We removed the 90 degree rotation b/c it was trapping heat at the front of the case - and I don't want to drill holes in the front panel to solve the problem.

However, the bracket to flip the PSU is included, for people that plan to flip the case.
