Going to get black whenever it's available.

 

[Retell]

I've got white!

 

[microfister]

got mine in black. love it. and for all those that complained about plastic this case is very very sturdy makes my 800d feel like a budget case.

 

[faMine]

I honestly don't need a case, but I want one to have. Just to have. Not even to use.

It's that gorgeous.

 

[Retell]

I just bought 6 boxes of Girl Scout cookies today. You sir, you are welcome to a cookie.

[Chewy]

Nice to see this thread finaly appear i cannot wait to see this in action

 

[craney]

Hurry up and stock in the UK please

 

[evensen007]

Add me to the club! Just bought the white one from newegg. YOUCH, that's the most I've ever payed for a case in my life, so Intend on using it for a looooong time. This will house my re-designed water-cooling loop and I'm looking forward to a super clean and self-contained setup!

 

[btwalter]

Add me to the list. Purchased mine yesterday, will be here tomorrow. Got the white one.

 

[xSociety]

In a YouTube video from CES the dude showing it off said they were thinking about making a gun metal one. Is that actually going to happen? Cause that would seal the deal.

 

[Retell]

We currently have no plans to create a gunmetal version.

Pics:





I ordered some different water cooling gear, So I wont be transferring to this case til next monday.

I do note that with the swiftech H20-220 kit, The fillport at the rear is covered up by a piece of metal on the top. Its also on there just for show, As I'm selling the kit, But I think the red tubing inside looks very nice.

I am usually a fan of either white or black tubing, but that red tubing does look sexy in a mostly white case! Have you been pulling the case apart much? What's the overall experience/build quality in your opinion?

 

[TheJesus]

Get the black one already!

 

[Otterclock]

Boy, Anandtech really raked this sucker over the coals. Basically calling it the "Bulldozer" of cases.

Good thing they forgot the part where its a liquid case obviously. Who really cares about 2C compared to other cases?
