Available for order today, we have the new Citadel Mesh ATX. Based on the popular Citadel Mesh Micro-ATX series, the Citadel Mesh ATX takes the same visual design and bumps up the size. This results in a case with some significant hardware support such as E-ATX motherboards, 420mm radiators, 380mm VGA cards, 180mm CPU coolers & 200mm PSU's. There's 4 pre-installed Umbra 120mm ARGB/PWM fans, alongside an Umbra Core ARGB/PWM controller, allowing both remote control and compatible 3-Pin 5V ARGB motherboard support out of the box. As with the other Citadel Mesh models, the entire front panel features mesh ventilation for excellent airflow. The tempered glass side panel has two rear screws to release it, which is both convenient and subtle. There's triple slot vertical GPU support included, with the use of an optional PCI-E riser cable. Watercooling support is great, with up to 420mm support at the front, 360mm support at the top, and 140mm at the rear. There's a full PSU shroud with hexagonal cutouts for ventilation and a side mounted I/O panel which has a USB3.2 Gen2 Type-C Port plus 2 x USB3.0 ports and a USB2.0 port. Cable management is great, with velcro cable anchors, cable routing tubes and rubber cable grommets throughout.

The Citadel Mesh ATX is available to order today and presents a comprehensive suite of features for the pricepoint.

Well it's not true, as it's no where near 8x more expensive, prices Shanghai to Rotterdam aren't even 3x the 5 year moving average price. 40ft is ~$9700 Vs 5 year at ~$3600.

For a start we aren't in Rotterdam. Secondly based on recent container shipping costs, it's approx. 6.7x more cost wise at the moment than it was before they exploded in price. At it's worst it was over 9x more. UK costs involved bump the price up too and they have only increased alongside.

Really, well blow me down I didn't notice. Rotterdam is the EU central hub for pricing China/EU pricing for containers, the onward UK pricing is irrelevant when doing a comparison vs the moving average 5 year pricing.

So you arrange your own containers, or you buy from the supplier who arranges it? One of the clients I consult for have loads of custom chassis from GUANGHSING, and another vendor - filling a container for own use as opposed to paying a fee on top of the pricing from the vendor. I'd assume since Caseking own OCUK that the stock comes in via Rotterdam on a container just for your group, but maybe you sell less than I imagined of Kolink, but given how many of their PSU's you put in the pre-builds I'd be surprised.

It cost nowhere near $3600 for containers back in late 2020, which is where I am comparing it against. It was more like $2000. Currently it's sitting around $13k. It's absolutely dreadful for brands like Kolink which were focussed on price performance products, but even in this pretty muted market they do well enough to justify the containers coming in and new products being released.
