I just found the MI-6 today. I would really like to own one. I'm sorry to hear that you are putting a hold on production. Hopefully it's just temporary. The world needs more itx cases that are actually small. Best of luck in whatever has caused you to give up your hobby.

Completed The MI-6 Microtower Case: Performance in 6.7L
- Thread starter firewolfy
- Start date
I've purchased 4 of these cases (2 minimal & 2 regular), and have 0 regrets. This is hands down my favorite PC case I've owned so far. You've made a fantastic product, and best of luck with what you have going on!
Well glad to join in on the multi-case crew ?
It's such a great balance between minimal and functional while maintaining a beautiful aesthetics. To me it's a work of art, and I absolutely love it.
In every forum there's always that one quiet member who then suddenly say "Oh that thing? Yea I bought 4 of that" ?
Anw it's probably a bit late, but I would love to see some build logs since there are not many MI-6 build logs on the internet.
Yes please.
I updated my GPU to 1660 Super & did a quick review https://smallformfactor.net/reviews/guest-review-zotac-gtx-1660-super-twin-fan/
At the moment I am also preparing my 2nd build (provided the prices are not ridiculous) for my other MI-6. Covid 19 pandemic hits really hard on distribution lines everywhere.
At the same time pinging @vvv to post his builds

I'm actually going to be taking it apart, so maybe a reverse build? Putting together a S4M with my existing components. The MI-6 will house my next build with a x570 motherboard. Also contacted Pslate to see if I can get custom cables, and he said if I can measure the lengths, he would be willing to work on them...so if anyone has measurements, they would be much appreciated ?
NOTE: I have 4 cases, 2 with front ports & 2 minimal, but I've only done 1 build. I also have 2 Ghost S1s, 2 S4Ms, and considering buying 2 Velka 7s when they become available...so I may have a slight problem lol

I used 200mm for the 24pin and 300mm for both the PCI and 8 pin PCS.
As requested, MI-6 unbuild:
Please excuse the poor quality photos & cable management (or lack thereof) ?
Specs:
MSI B450I Gaming Plus AC (MB)
G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 16 GB DDR4 2133 x 2 (RAM)
AMD Ryzen 2600 (CPU)
Noctua NH-L9x65 (CPU Cooler)
EVGA GTX 1060 SC Gaming ACX 2.0 (Single Fan) 6gb (GPU)
EVGA SuperNOVA 550 GM (PSU Modular)
Samsung 850 EVO 256 GB (SSD)
Samsung 860 EVO 1 TB (SSD)
Interesting.. I've never seen people use 2133 Mhz RAM for their Ryzen 5 before. Your build is probably the first I know. I mean, nothing wrong with that, it's just that usually people will try to squeeze performance more by using 2666 Mhz RAM or faster.
EVGA 1060 was good.. Too bad the EVGA 2060 is like 3 slot.
Truthfully, the only reason why I’m using that RAM is because I had an Intel 6600K build prior to this that had that RAM so decided to just keep it ?
I will be getting a pair of 32gb 3600 RAM with the x570 for my Zen3 build. Also hoping to purchase the RTX 3060 when it comes out, hopefully they have some 2 slots but I have my doubts. Was also disappointed that EVGA went 3 slot for their RTX 2060 ITX ☹
Might look for faster RAM for the x570 if I can find any for a reasonable cost
This is still the best case I ever had with the T1. Timeless beauty and efficiency!! Thanks a lot for everything you did! And good luck for everything else!
If anyone here ever wants to sell their MI-6, please let me know because I will gladly join the few and own multiple!
FYI, I have a used MI-6 in good condition i've been meaning to sell. Finally getting around to it. I was thinking about posting in the marketplace board, but it seemed a bit dead in there. I can include a riser if requested. USA shipping only.

Does anybody think there is any hope for a new graphics cards to fit in this case?” I absolutely love my Mi-6, so I’m really sad to see the huge power consumption of the new RTX 3000 cards. I’m starting to wonder how long it will be until I can find an upgrade for my GTX1080.
