That 240 looks neat, may just have to down size of its coming soon. Any idea on release?

Typically the products at Computex are pre-production samples.

Once showcased, manufacturers typically then have to start work on tooling for mass production, this can take 2-3 months, then the first production runs can take 4-6 weeks, and then shipping from Asia to Europe can take another 3-4 weeks too.

So effectively that is up to 5-6 months.

P.S. Tooling costs can run in to hundreds of thousands of dollars to get sorted too.

That made for very interesting reading thanks for that, its nice to get a wee insight as to how it works and what's going on in the big scheme of things.

The Carbide Series Air 240 has 'buy me' written all over it

Thermaltake still flogging that horse I see. Oy.

Is that Air 240 taking ATX or just micro/mini?

 

[rhyur]

BeQuiet announced their first ever case at Computex.

** No hotlinking images, thank you **


I'm happy to see them get into the case business, if you think about it there's not many manufacturers who primarily make silence-optimized cases.

Think it's just the micro/mini.

The 780T looks very much like the 600T. I like it though.
