I get the impression there may be three versions of this case. Air, water and storage. At least that's how it came across on the Kitguru YouTube video.

Also it looks l like the iTX bracket PCIE riser and more than 4 drive bays will be extras. I reckon you'll be looking at £350 if you want all available extras.

That's good if you ask me. None of the competitors offer those options included with the case or even for extra money. I don't need them and I'm happy I won't have to pay for them. And there's only one version of the case they just had different setups, WC, AC with dual system, storage, to show capabilities of it.

Makes sense and I agree, nice to have the option and not have to buy stuff you don't need. For example I intend to go solid state storage only so I won't need the extra drive cages. I might play with the mini iTX bracket though. Could be handy just to have as backup system.

There's only one version of the case. And honestly, better to offer some of these upgrades optionally and keep the price competitive in my opinion.

I take it the vertically mounted gpu so the fans are showing isn't for standard mobo?

I think they throw the bracket in with the case for the vertical mount. The review I saw used it for the iTX build but I can't see why you can't use it for the ATX motherboard. The PCIE riser is an extra though I think.

is there any info on how 2 system are powered. im thinking they done some cheating with their cable managmenet

clone · 19 Jul 2018 at 21:34

Bracket for second pc with button at the back of case,they got a special psu with 2 sets of cables.

Kurgen · 19 Jul 2018 at 21:35

ahh so u have to buy a PSU too, so there is a trick...

clone · 19 Jul 2018 at 22:12

No word on how much the psu is but it's a great idea that phantek brought out.

Kurgen · 19 Jul 2018 at 22:17

It is. currently im using the mini xl with two systems and a PSU splitter. I bet it wil be £200 for case and £200 for psu which I cant justify

clone · 19 Jul 2018 at 23:36

Yeh the case will be about £200 odd I would guess and it's so much better than its older brother as the upgrades are just what I'm looking for in a case.

Kurgen · 20 Jul 2018 at 16:01

plus the AIO for the ITX, can you use any AIO, or have the done a special one with shorter tubing

clone · 20 Jul 2018 at 16:03

Normal AIO.

Kurgen · 20 Jul 2018 at 16:06

heres my dual system in the Mini XL. I do want to go back to tempered glass. but its gonna be costly

BriT · 20 Jul 2018 at 20:23

Can't for this, was gonna buy the Thermal take view 71 but will wait for this.
