• [...] time in customs
• 2 weeks to ship out to Youtubers
• 1 week for a review

This is the current schedule

Thanks for the update @AlexTzone, my wife told me not to buy anything until the end of October

Is there a way I could hold a product from you?

I think the campaign will launch somewhere around the mid/end of October anyways Depending on the customs procedure

I like 299 better because I don't like RBG! and I am from Australia. Ready to buy whatever it is ready.

which state? im in SA might be cheaper if we order two.

if you were to run air cooling on the cpu could you fit a hybrid gpu cooler in this case? like a EVGA FT3 Hybrid or kracken g12

Wish I were but from NSW. It would be cheaper if we ordered together, yeah.

Wow, that's pretty!

Nice progress!

 

[ARC1T3CT]

Awesome work guys!! Can’t wait to see it all assembled!

That colour is gorgeous

Is that an XL frontplate that would support a 24cm AIO?

It's just the back piece.

 

[Notional]

It's just the back piece.

There's 3 front panels. The two lower ones look taller than the third one. But it might just be the angle of the picture playing tricks on me.

I'm a bit confused as to which panel we are talking about now lol. I'll post some pics of the assembled product on Tuesday, that should make it clear

I thought he was referring to the open back piece, but I think there's just some confusion with minor perspective distortion.

is it going to be on kickstarter? thanks!

 

[thekinghippo]

is it going to be on kickstarter? thanks!

Yes. Theoretically in the next month or two depending on how long it takes to get youtube reviews out.

 

[bobgr8]

So It's gong to be a while before I can actually get it? any ETA on the final delivery?

 

[AlexTzone]

Guys any ideas on how to avoid metal-against-metal scratches when inserting/removing the internal core from the enclosure? My thoughts so far:

• Thin layer of lacquer on the corners
• Tape

These corners are a concern:

Any ideas are welcome! Really don't want to scratch the inside of that fine anodized shell (even if it's not going to be visible to the user).

A couple of pics form the assembly, more to come shortly

 

[ARC1T3CT]

It looks amazing!!!

You could either redesign that piece to have round edges or you could try covering it in a thin soft coating or film and leave it as is.

Wow, this case is gorgeous! Seriously.

Where is the power button on the back? Is it the round button near the power socket?

Also, are the feet cast in metal as part of the frame? If so, you may need a rubber feet strip for each.

As for preventing scratches, perhaps gluing a Teflon(PTFE) sheet to those corners. It can be obtained in thin sheets. It's also heat resistant.
