Same here

Question: Is there enough space to place a 240mm radiator where the cpu cooler would normally go? I see that it has a fair bit of ventilation through the side, but does the PSU take up too much space to prevent this?

I think you might have just enough space to put a 240mm radiator, BUT, you'll have to do some cutting and modding. Because you can fit such high performing air cooled heatsink and the case space is so tight, we didn't expect that much interest in fitting water cooling inside the case itself. But we would love seeing some really cool water cooling mods using DA BOX!
Also, I just wanted to thank you all for your support. This is one of a kind experience to design SFF cases for our little start up!

Handle = I buy.

You see? This is precisely why this forum needs a SFF subforum. I had no idea this thread was here. I've been watching it on [H] and commenting.

This is an amazing case

There are only three things I think you need for it to be perfect:

1: A carrying handle. If I'm gonna buy a case like this its gonna be so I can carry it around. Nothing better than a handle to do that with.

2: Front panel audio jacks. This way noone has to carry around an extension cable for their headphones.

3: A 2.5" HDD/SSD mount. I don't know where the best place for it would be, but I think its an absolute necessity . If there's no place to put it, maybe include some sort of 3.5"->dual 2.5" adapter with the higher end case that matches the interior.

I think with these three things it will be the best cube-style case ever made

1. A custom tailored bag is being developed for the case.

2. Jacks are being developed to incorporate into the side of the case.

3. 2 SSD mounts are directly beneath the 5 1/2" bay.
Edit: The specifications page of their website indicates 4.

Oh, awesome

Well except the bag part, I'd still much prefer a handle :/

1. We might be able to work something out.

2. We had space restriction that prohibited the audio jacks to be mounted on the front, but maybe in the next edition OR as a new "front panel" accessories. We are in fact looking at having the possibility of switching the front panel for other designs or other options, such as a "large" LCD screen, large digital fan controllers, etc.. The idea is that you can custom your case as much as you'd like so that you can have your own design.

3. You can mount up to 4 SSD, and up to 2 3.5" drives, for a total of up to 6 drives.
There is also a special configuration for high end overclocking using only 2 x 2.5" drives to allow for really large RAM cooling systems and other crazy configurations.
Will that work for you guys?
