Is there any word on if/when OcUK will be getting these cases in? I see them in 2 other places here in UK, but the really annoying thing is i want to get a new PSU and some other bits at the same time, all of which OcUK sell considerably cheaper than said 'other shops' lol. I tried e-mailing last week but i have'nt had any reply yet.

Ok thanks for reply, i think i will go ahead and buy one now then get the psu and other bits from here. Really been itching to buy one lol.

Case came this morning, well chuffed with it :cool:

At first i had a bit of a panic when i realised just how much smaller than a PC-6X case it was (old case was a PC-68), i thought it was going to be a complete nightmare to get everything in but i was totally wrong. It's actually considerably easier. Anyway here are a few pictures of install process if anyone is interested... (sorry for the crap quality)

All hardware installed but not everything plugged in.

Almost everything plugged in, tried to give an idea of the space left behind PSU, still a sizable gap with stock AMD hsf so no worries for airflow.

(had to split post in 2 because of too many images).....

Ready to go, and not too untidy imo. Well, tidier than the old case at least lol.

All done! I have'nt forgotten the CD drive honest, i just don't havea black bezel yet

Might not bother installing it tbh, i dont seem to use it very often anyway, so an external cd drive might be in order i think.

Anyhow, i'm really pleased with the case, it might seem quite dear for the size but i think its well worth the money myself. Real easy to work with and the build quality/styling is ace. I would definately recommend the case to anybody!

Oh btw incase its hard to see what's actually in the case here's the list... (badly in need of an upgrade i know, but i don't game very uch nowadays and i'm waiting for Conroe & DX10 cards)

3200+ Winchester with stock hsf
Asus A8V Deluxe Mobo
1gb Crucial Ballistix
HIS 9800pro Ice-Q
X-fi Platinum
1x Maxtor 120gb IDE (windows)
2x 250gb Seagate's in Raid 1 for storage
Thermaltake 480w psu (gotta love those dicso lights).

Maybe if you were to put ina couple of optical drives and another pci card of some kind it might start to get cramped, but i reckon it would still be ok, the case really is easy to work with.

Sure thing, gimme a sec and i will email one over, and feel free to use the pictures from this thread if you want to. I will try to get some better ones of the case when i have time, and a better camera lol.

I make it around 76-8mm, but it's difficult to get a good measurement now so it could be a few mm bigger/smaller than that.

Yes sorry i forgot to post a pic of the side, looks like this but when you look at it normally you don't see the inside components so clearly, thats just because of the camera flash...
