Let me PM Gtek on H and see if he wants to join the discussion here. If he does, would you mind if I merged this thread with his so he can update the OP as things change?

 

[Vittra]

By all means, in fact I would prefer if it was merged.

I find it a shame it's buried in that thread on [H] rather than having a dedicated one, people may be missing it entirely. I only became aware of it about a month ago myself.

The form factor of it isn't for me, but man does it look nice. Even the logo is just nice to look at.

 

[Vittra]

It is very aesthetically pleasing, that may in fact be what I like about it most. It would be very "at home" as a HTPC or main rig alike.

With possibilities such as the R9 Nano on the horizon, potential functionality has changed quite a bit as well.

 

[MJVR1]

That case wouldn't really fit in my set up but man, that case is absolutely. I can think of a couple people who would appreciate that Form Factor and the "out of the way-ness" of this case.

I think it's a very beautiful case, I like these "true" tower cases like the Silverstone FT03-mini and Apple G4 Cube (the OG of tower-like cases).
If the price is good (<100$) I'd recommend it for friends and family if they like the design.
I myself need more room and for me the Ncase M1 is already the minimum I feel comfortable with, hence the waiting game I play daily with the Kimera Habanero.

Maybe this should be moved to the Custom Case Corner? I feel that that section would be better suited as a collection of these independant case projects.

I'd agree with this.

 

[jeshikat]

If Gtek joins he can make a thread there and I'll merge it with this one and clean it. The CCC is intended for creators.

Case alone is £185 though they sell the case in a pre-built system too.

Edit: case is £115. My old fell made it look like it said 185. Sowwy

 

[rawr]

Yeah, since it's a small quantity release, I doubt $100 would be feasible. Especially since it's aluminum too.

 

[PlayfulPhoenix]

I can say with near confidence that their costs to make that would push $100 for sure. Irrespective of logistics, packaging and other things, which add up quickly.

 

[Vittra]

You can order it already, though I suppose pre-order is the correct term - my understanding is they are awaiting 50 orders before they are created and shipped out.

Price is £ 115.00 including VAT. I attempted to calculate shipping to Canada and it seems to be included, as it is specified as free.

No front io??

 

[confusis]

I want one!
