This could do REALLY well, much better than the 300 by looking at it! also i prefer the looks!

Is it so wrong to not need yet another case... but at the same time to want one so badly! This looks awesome, and if it is £69.99 - it WILL fly off the shelves.

OcUK - Please Stock ASAP!

Bump.

Any more news on this? Sandy Bridge is fast approaching and I was really hoping that this would be my next case...

MarcD3832 · 28 Dec 2010 at 15:19

its a nice case, just wish it was a little larger.

COYS · 28 Dec 2010 at 15:23

Loving the look of this and think I'll get one to replace my old Armor

Basill · 29 Dec 2010 at 11:27

This being released some time in Jan'11?

Zefan · 29 Dec 2010 at 11:54

Love the look of this.

Am I seeing the right case!?

The inside looks fine but externally... my GOD that's fugly!!!

:eek:

The finish on the case will the a brushed alu kind of look. The photos just don't give it justice. I do agree the logo makes it look quite ugly.

And here's me just bought a new case! Am happy with mine but damn that does look good at that price point...

Wow that looks nice.
Same price as an Antec 300 at the moment.

Beats the 300 in design!

jej_knowles · 3 Jan 2011 at 15:55

wowza, that might make me ditch my Lian Li A05NB

Louis_Y · 4 Jan 2011 at 17:26

That looks seriously impressive for the money. I'll wait for a few full reviews, but this may well fill all the criteria for my next case

is there a release date yet?

I received an email from the MD of Fractal Design just before Christmas, and he said that the ARC is likely to be released in the UK in March this year.

I might be getting a free one

Hmm, will be looking for a new case sometime early this year and love the look of most of the Fractal Design stuff. There aren't many cases with similar clean looks and certainly not in the same price ranges.

Was looking at an R3 but they only seem to be available in White at the moment. The Arc looks pretty nice but also considering the Define Mini that is coming out soon, but then i'd have to switch to a mini-ATX motherboard. Other option is the Lian Li PC-A05NB which i think should fit my motherboard.

Will be building a fairly budget PC for my parents to house in my current case when I move my PC out, something along the lines of an i3 with the onboard GPU.
