I believe it's an extender, not a cable (male to female, not male to male). Am I mistaken?No change - the display connectors are on the bottom, and there are only three relatively closely spaced hole sets for mounting the GPU, so there's no way of moving the GPU further up to account for non-angled connectors (though if they're short and the cable is flexible you might get away with the uppermost mounting holes). Unless you want to mod it, I guess. If not, the case will be resting on the GPU cable and likely tilted over. Could go for a leaning tower of Pisa-themed build?
Regarding the angled display cable connector stuff: I don't mind paying for a cable with a compact angled connector, but $30 for a 1m cable? That's barely long enough to route along my monitor arm, and there's no way it will reach a PC from there. I'd gladly pay that price if it was a useful length, but 1m is barely enough if the case is directly next to the monitor with no cable management whatsoever... A poor solution there.
The display port cable is pictured with 2 male ends so I would assume it is a cable and not an extender.

No mention of this being an extension, and it sure looks like a standard male to male cable to me.
Hey,
the case looks interesting. Currently im waiting for Ghost S1 in Arctic White, which will also be available in the next quarter.
This Case is bigger by a huge margin but is capable of thicc gpus and thicc aios (280mm).
Im hyped and I definitely consider this case.
But and here are the downsides so far:
» No PCIe 4.0 Riser Cable included (the Ghost has one, but is 200 $ more in price)
» No easy Upgrade to PCIe 4.0 Cable (because of the length a 20cm will fit the best but this procedure will include bending and trying from the community to get the one cable that fits and is durable enough)
» Mesh Sides. On a 100 € Case there is no need for all-sides-mesh if the case is clearly designed for thicc radiators. therefore, you don't need to cool the mobo side, because the radiator will get you enough airflow for vrms and chipset. and that's why the glass option is absolutely right. If i pay 2 - 3k for a PC i wanna have at least one glass side because it just looks nice and small cases aren't locked into your next drawer, they are right on your desk.
But the one problem i have with this decision is that i must buy a tinted or mirrored one separate. I think the 40$ price tag is fair, but i will have one tg panel that is doing nothing more than collecting dust in the cellar.
Money really isn't a big issue here, it's a cheap case and building in small form factors was never cheap (look at the ghost s1, haha).
Im looking forward to getting more factual information (not just a pr video from optimum tech) in the coming weeks.
This case could be an excellent choice for its price and enough clearance for premium/high end hardware.

There aren't really many PCIE gen 4 cables. And no the ghost doesn't come with one, it comes with gen3 cables
Only 1 mesh side, its confirmed to come with 1 glass panel that can go on either side.
The Ghost MkIII comes with this PCI 4.0 riser cable.
C8I will fit assuming you have the SFX orientated the right way, you will need a longer PCIe Riser Cable though. Go 3M if you can.
If you have a GPU less than 313mm, you can move the struts that supports GPU upwards, giving you up to 46mm for regular cables to connect.
Full Mesh Side Panel on both side is a dealbreaker for global distribution. No Tempered Glass = distributors doesn't want to carry the product, and sales data seems to support this very clearly. To that end, we just have to update the website to reflect the reality of making this case more available.
To hit the price point, leaving margins for distributors, it's best we can do for now, not much we can change atm.
What about availability in Europe? @Wahaha360 I live in Turkey and best way to get it Amazon Turkey. But Amazon Germany is OK too.
Not EU, shipping based on the heavier of the weight vs dimensional weight, the cost is closer to USD60, so prob won't both opening on the website for EU, just cost too much.
Just wait for OCUK / CaseKing
Damn, I assume you wouldn't like to make an exception if I was ready to pay? Just want to get the case as soon as possible and knowing EU distributors it will take months for them to get the case on their websites... Btw when will preorders start on the website? Initial date was end of 2020 so I assume there is some kind of delay.
Also one important question people already asked, is the tempered glass on the white case also smoked as in the black one?
Yes, width up to 157mm
At least 15cm on the cable itself, it depends on the Riser brand and the way the Cable part is welded to PCB. It's not standard across different Brands.
Longer Riser Cables will need clearance space, stick with SFX PSU to have space for folding longer Riser cables.
It's plenty strong, solid 7x8mm aluminum struts.
Email support later, I don't know yet, too early to say.

I will post photos later, all the prototypes are sent to media, I will get mine mid January and will take photos to address this concern.
Give us the pre-order date
It's not up to us, because we have to work around other distributors.
I don't want to jeopardize availability in more countries, so the following can't be changed:
- One TG and One Mesh will be standard
- Preorder date, availability depends on distributors

Will the standard TG Panel be tinted or not? Dont feel like seeing all the cables through the TG, would buy the tinted one seperate if not but would still be nice to have a choice at purchase because there isnt that much space for hiding cables so i think most would prefer the tinted one.
yes, the ghost does come with a pcie 4 cable.
yes, there is a tg panel, which i also pointed out in my text, but it's not tinted, which is a bummer.
and again: for this price, its more than fine. But an upgrade option (like selling a gen 4 cable separately) would be nice.
Hmm...since this mean the GPU can be affixed all the way up to the top (313+46mm=359mm), using the whole case height (case height 360mm), does that mean that cards longer than 320mm will fit? If GPU is less 2.5 slot (in 3 slot mode) or 3.5 slot (in 4 slot mode)?
Yes, but you will need to use Right Angle DP or HDMI cables, because you are eating into the space left for cables coming out of the GPU.
