So I just unboxed my M8 this morning (absolutely beautiful case by the way!), and there was a note explaining that you were currently out of thumbscrews, and would be shipping them at a later date. First off let me say thank you for not delaying my order for something so minor. I truly appreciate your finishing this case in a timely manner. I am curious however what your ETA is for the thumbscrews to ship?

Picked these up for my TRON Legacy theme build. Got the optional light bar upgrade kit(s). Note, for a quad channel package you will need two light bar kits as each covers two sticks. No issues...

I honestly love this cooler, but I think I'm gonna move on to another one soon, it just looks... A bit to bland compared to other flaming red (literally) coolers on the market.

Thank you!! They were supposed to be in by late November
and they missed two additional dates. We're supposed to get them by mid month. Lots of lame excuses, but it does sound like we will have them this time. Next stop for us - a screw machine shop...

So I have spent a little time after work these last two evenings installing radiators and fans and what not and i have a concern. I have 2 xspc rx360's installed in the power supply side of the case. One mounted on top and the other mounted on the bottom. I didn't realize how tight of a fit the bottom mounted radiator was until I removed the motherboard tray and it scraped the paint off the side of the radiator.
After trying to figure out what alternate mounting options I might have, I noticed that the radiator/fan holes in the bottom of the power supply side of the case are set further in than any of the other fan/radiator mounts. Basically from the edge of the case to the first set of fan holes on the bottom of the motherboard side of the case is 25mm. The same is for both of the fan/radiator mounts on the top side of the case. However unfortunately on the bottom of the power supply side of the case the first set of screws is inset 31mm. This gives the fan/radiator mounts an asymmetrical layout, and unfortunately causes my rx360 to run into the bottom corner of the motherboard tray.
Is that design intentional, or did I wind up with a case that had it's holes drilled in the wrong spot?
