@KSliger ans
@PlayfulPhoenix i don’t if it’s not too late (or you already took it into account)
For rear sfx psu bracket please maximize offset to allow maximum cpu cooler clearance...better than silverstonetek bracket..
please also lake vents on plain surface..
target is to have better clearance for aio waterblock/pump!
The rear SFX option will essentially be a plate. We will be intelligent about aligning the PSU to maximize CPU clearance.
Will the windowed panel in December be a full window, or only GPU window?
GPU window!
I was thinking of air cooling (even though this was optimized for water cooling) and would it be possible to know height clearance of aircoolers?
Thank you !
The product page for Cerberus on the website is up to date! For Cerberus X, it is correct within a few mm for all dimensions except height; I will get updated dimensions for Cerberus X and share ASAP however.
Just curious, but would it be possible to order one or two sets of extra panels to the legacy 6 studded pre-production Cerberuses? Prices would of course be higher due to the one-off character of the thing, but it would be nice to know if the option was there.
In theory, yes; Sliger can just make them custom. But I suspect that the new panels will work with the old enclosure.
Also, regarding:
This particular point concerns me. The clip mechanism was a particular point of discussion regarding its durability on several occasions during the design and development of the case.
The intention of updating the panel design to four pins was to reduce manufacturing cost and time in response to Sliger's observation that the two additional center pins didn't really make much of a difference, given the sturdiness of metal clips/pins and the thickness/rigidity of the panels. That said, let me follow-up with them to get some additional information and context.
To be clear, we would not have made the change if we thought there would be an impact on quality, consistency of panel gaps, etc.
Would you prefer if pre-production cases of the Cerberus weren't shown in builds on forums and such since they don't entirely represent the final production product?
Pssh. People should be able to do whatever the heck they want. It would be nice if they mentioned that it was pre-production just to allay confusion, but I'm fine with addressing it myself if folks reach out with questions.
Do I have to wait till December to order a primary set with a windowed panel? o_o
Yes, apologies. We're getting everything we can out ASAP; we didn't want to delay further for any reason.
