Now I cannot help but wonder if an ITX motherboard in a mATX chassis might leave enough room for a 280 Phoenix AIO...?!?

Can we please, Please, PLEASE get some info up on this new chassis...!

(and will it come in a special John Wick Edition...?)

Just looking at available mATX motherboards on NewEgg...

Why, oh why, would Asus put a VERTICAL M.2 slot on their Strix mATX mobo...?

Like I got 80mm+ of vertical real estate available in a SFF chassis...?!?

Wait a sec, are y'all doing a booth??

I believe they have stated that a booth is not financially possible, so it looks like they are doing that Suite Life...

So you gonna just slip in that picture and not explain what that chassis in the background is? Whyyyyy

I do believe you have spotted a Mach One missing the windowed side, perforated front, & top panels...!

did you guys reach out to the youtube case reviewer guys?

^ This, so much this...

Nothing helps make a decision on an expensive chassis like being able to watch several different reviews / build-ups...

Hopefully we will see reviews by the usual suspects (Linus Tech Tips, Hardware Canucks, Paul's Hardware, Bitwit, Jayz Two Cents)...

Let's play a game of the guess the liters.

It looks like there is a spot for a 5 1/4" drive bay up top...?

From Wallye Tactik Duffle thread...

There is a new Micro-ATX case designed for this bag.

From the SSFLabs Wallye Tactik Duffle page...

...and any desktop PC smaller than 47 x 29 x 21 cm.

So, 18" is probably the maximum height...

If that is a 5 1/4" drive bay up top, then probably about 6" wide...

And if all that is close, then I would guess about 12" deep...?

So, somewhere around 20 liters...?!?

Now, we all know that true SFF is 20 liters or less, including PSU...

And it IS SFFLabs, so...

Come on guys, just give us info already...!!!
