After watching Whyscottys video of the new Corsair 380T and 780T, I came across this.

I love my Air 540 but it is a little bulky, think I'm now gonna ditch it and get the 240 instead



 
I thought my Parvum S2 was special, but that is something else!! I may actually swap which my wife will not appreciate :(
 
That looks interesting.

Bottom of the case looks like space for a 240 or 360 rad, front 240 and probably a 240 up top.

then in the other side looks like another fan mount with space for possibly a 240?

They've got a teaser page up: You can put a 240mm radiator in the top/front/bottom. If you're doing ITX you can use front and bottom slots at the same time, but uATX limits you to front. (It says something about moving the feet to change the orientation of the case, so I take it the top slot can only be used when the case is flipped and it becomes the bottom slot.)

I was all set on a 250D, going to have to wait and see how this pans out now...
 
It's a shame they've deleted the optical drive slot as I've got to build a system for my sister soonish. I would have seriously considered using this case

Personally I quite like it though

pfft optical drive slots :P I use an external one for the rare times I need it. Last time I used an optical drive was when I stalled windows 7 back in 2012/2011 I think.
 
Complete mehville.

So I asked George over at overclock.net and it turns out that the Air 240 cannot take 2x240mm rads in Micro ATX mode...

The search continues!
 
Lovely looking case indeed ..... Only just upgraded to the 250D .... :D :D

Corsair really lifting the ssf case range to challenge i feel. Great to see.

tell me about it, they really missed something there, I'd have settled for an extra 20mm or so in width/height for the extra rad :o

It was looking 'perfect' for me as it would have fitted in my 'hole' (in desktop mode) where I've currently got my sugo sg01 while allowing me to have a more powerful rig :(
 
I know right?

Only other option would be to go Mini-ITX but I have add in cards for my audio work and firewire is also needed for audio interfaces I run :(

Phanteks Evolv it is!
 
I was looking at hex/octo core and dual gpu for cad rendering.... no way that would be cooled by just a single 240mm rad lol

At the rate things are going I'll be going back to my original 2x mitx with quad and 1 gpu :(
