Can we get this thread back to talking about the case?

Its only right and proper to condone what was said about George, but its done and the more we post about it the more attention we bring to the comment.

Let's move on and start talking about the case again :)

Fair comment - think it is said and done. Don't think the original poster of the comment meant it offensively, and I certainly did not take it that way, just thought it was unnecessary and a bit unkind that's all. Let us all move on and back to the case.
 
My Fan controller has been inside my case for a while as my Current Fractal only has two front bays and one is for DVD drive, the other my 4 port hot-swap SATA bay.

Mind you, i'm not sure why i bother with a fan controller nowadays, most motherboards have excellent fan controls now.

Can't believe it... Just checked all my kit ready for my build on Monday night and I have the wrong size hose... Brought a spare pack ages ago and must have selected the wrong size.... Oh well, looks like i will be building on Tuesday instead then :(

Will just have to spend Monday night caressing the case and taking photos to make you all jealous :)

Does anyone know if this will fit on 285mm width shelf please? Its the feet not fully making contact with the shelf that I'm concerned about

The feet are 310mm from outside edge to outside edge, if you sit it on a 285mm shelf, it will use about 1/3 of each foot, you would have about 5mm of each foot in contact with the shelf. The feet are rubber and rectangular so its still a fair amount on the shelf, but far from ideal.

I feel your hate LOL. Yes from Corsair in the States.

Just been having a little look and placing a few bits in their places...
First thing that I did not expect is how much lower the case is than I was expecting. This means that the Res I opted for will be too tall :( fortunately I have a shorter one so I can play about and see what works.

Power button is not great, very plastic with no feel.
But the rest of the case feels very well put together and the design just hits you as very good everywhere you turn.

Comes with a magnetic dust filter on the front, which is nice.
 
Guys

We will have a VERY limited allocation of stock next week.
[This may be subject to delays but I am doing everything in my power to make it happen]

over half of this is already allocated to pre orders so please order to avoid disappointment.

Please, if you want your case
 
Oooh, our pre-orders are going to be filled next week? Now I just have to pray my reconditioned H100 comes in early too :)
