Oh man me too! Waiting on some more koolance quick disconnect fittings I ordered! Haha

Completed SLATE-CASE AQ >>Status Update - Finalizing Order Fulfillments!
- Thread starter TaylorChiller
- Start date
I’m waiting on so many things. Even canceled and re ordered parts to get them sooner but the earliest I’ll be able to build is mid January 
January 2nd and I will be ready for the build, months of having parts sitting there mocking me will finally come to an end! Hoping mine ships soon, the anticipation is killing me. I might be guilty of checking my order 3-18 times a day. And with all of the Best Buy drops I even scored a 4090 which is going to make the wait much worse.
Hey Everyone!
Some updates for you. We have finished processing all of the Dark Grey orders! 17 of which just need to be labeled/shipped. We will likely get to that next Tuesday as UPS is not picking up tomorrow because of the holiday.
As for the Natural Aluminum color. There are 19 orders remaining. We are scheduled to fulfill these by end of Jan. This is because there was a common defect with the perforated panels in this silver color and we strongly felt it would be better to have them replaced before shipping these last orders. Those that are affected by this will receive a personal email notifying them of the situation and updates that follow. I'm sorry if this creates inconvenience for you, but we want to maintain a quality product, even if it is just the last few.
I also want to send out best wishes for the holidays to all of you. It has been a long road since the first post for the Slate-Case. To be here is a blessing that comes from your support!
Best Regards,
Taylor, Protolyth

I’d also consider slightly shorter standoffs for V2
Confirmed w/ test fit. The longer EK-Quantum Surface 280 rads just fits with few mm left above the MB I/O plate if you slide it all the way.
Idk if this is helpful to anyone else, but I've been on the lookout for a 1000w sfx psu for this case (US), and you can pre-order this one from amazon:
A bunch of people in the SFF Gurus ordered it, some got a completely different PSU, others got their ordered canceled and refunded with no reason why. Not worth the risk imo just wait for Corsair’s or get the SF750
The Silverstone Extreme 850R was quietly released a few days ago, too. I haven't heard any reports of people getting it yet.
I have one. Got it yesterday. Check the thread for it for my thoughts:
Power Supply - Silverstone Extreme 850R Platinum SFX
I think that coolermaster is set to release in Q1 2023 so until february-march maybe we see it or in CES 2023 maybe too, on the other hand silverstone is now on amazon, so u can buy it,....but no one now for sure is that 16-pin 12vhpwr power connector 450W or 600W, confused... price for...

From what I’ve heard it’s much louder than a 750 at a given power draw, and you don’t really need the extra power it provides
Alright, leak testing this build. All I know is, this is my first full loop in a SFF build, and it's made me question if I'm in hell or not. It's not the case, it's my desire to cram so much stuff in to it, and because I went with a horizontal layout. It doesn't help that the PSU cables are so damn stiff.
I'm gonna have to redo it at some point. Pull the Aquaero (and replace with an Octo) out and make a custom mount for the reservoir. Then I'll be able to get the left side panel on lol.... Pics probably tomorrow.

Might want to get custom cables, Dream Big Ray is highly recommend alongside the main options as being cheaper.
Hoping once a few people get their builds done we see some solid recommendations on what the perfect cable lengths are.
Pslate did cables for my ghost s1 and fit and looked great
Just want to point out that the Silverstone 850r like every <1000w SFX ATX 3.0 PSU currently only provides 450w from it's 12+4pin GPU power cable instead of the full 600w.
Only the 1000w+ models seem to support 600w.

Question, will the 12+4Pin cable work on a 3080? I know the little 4 pin is the tiny little connector on top of the 12 Pin connector, but I dunno if the connector or PSU will be okay connecting to a 3080 FE, as the 3080 will just use the 12 Pins.
