I had decided to replace my Wavemaster as it is getting a bit long in the tooth now and the cooling is not that good.
After reading about the FT01 on this forum and seeing some of the build pictures I decided to buy one, so over to OcUK only to find they are out of stock, I e-mailed them, and they have no date for any more stock at the moment.
So I will have to check each day till they get some more, which is frustating as I have got all the parts for a new build but no case.:(
 
Ahh, the famous Fortress. No alternatives appeal? Up for making one?

You can run a computer in an open cardboard box with reasonable success for the time being, lets you check it's all working and so forth.
 
Yes I know I can get it cheaper elsewhere but I have always had good service from OcUk so I will wait.
JonJ678, I have allready had it running in an old Antec case, but i cannot fit the side on as the Zalman fan is to big.:)

Have to admit I did go elsewhere for mine as I couldn't wait, looked as though it had been taken out of the box before though as it had fingerprints all over the window etc - easily cleaned off but annoying on a 'brand new' case. I don't feel too guilty tho as everything else has come from OcUK!
 
I had as look at a few reviews for the Raven, it quotes that you will need very long SATA cables, they both say it is hard to keep the cabling tidy and the motherboard is turned 90 degrees, and to me it looks like something borrowed from Alienware.
Although it is certainly different, it is not for me, but thanks for pointing it out.
 
I bought a couple of parts elsewhere, mainly the GPU, because I wanted BFG, but wasn't prepared to pay £195 for it. Only stuff that is much cheaper, like the Antec 1200 (about £30 cheaper), will I buy from other places. I wouldn't mind spending a couple of quid more though to get it from OCUK.
 
It was not along wait, it will be here tomorrow, and at the same time I also ordered the Be Quiet 650W modular PSU that Kenny suggested.
