Awesome, cant wait for it to be released, im going to be either getting this, or the Raven 2.
Please post some pictures of the production / preview samples. :D
Where were the review samples sent? I would love to see this case be featured in MaximumPC's 2009 Dream Machine that should show up on magazine racks next month.
We were a bit late for the 2009 Dream Machine - but you guys that subscribe to Maximum PC will see a nice fold-out ad featuring Corsair products (including the case).
Review samples were actually shipped Monday - these ones were preview samples with the old CPU backplate cutout, they're going to a few very special partners of ours who will get them very soon I imagine.
Next week we should get a few full retail boxes here in the US - right now they're being manufactured by our partner overseas. I'll take some pictures of the shipment we get if you guys want.
Those will then go out to other review sites (and some other people), and the big containers will be filled with pallet after pallet of cases, then placed on a couple of ships, one of which will come here to the US and the other one will go to Europe. (probably a few will trickle to Australia/New Zealand/other parts of Asia as well...)
The goal is to have a simultaneous launch everywhere.
Guys...please check out the Corsair forum in the case section. Corsair is taking questions from the community regarding this case. I think they are going to answer the questions this Friday. :)
I'll be the guy answering questions and we're picking which ones and filming it tomorrow.
If you guys want me to answer your questions, check out the link here: http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=79985
Post something, we'll pick the top 5-10 tomorrow and I'll answer them.
We hope to do this on a monthly basis or so, the first month it's me, maybe next month it'll be the SSD guy or the RAM guy, etc.
*tries to think of a use for the case* got nothin...I've currently got 3 cases and three systems...that and well....24 inches is taller than i have vertical room for by 3 inches, lol
Redbread...that thing is massive, and will be one of the few cases on the market with room to accomodate a duel slot cooled GPU in the 7th slot of a mobo...why isn't there an 8th bracket in the rear for this?
Video? :clap:
namco...its the same size as the mountain mods pinnacle 24... 24*24*9
Where is the video? :(

Only for the excellent support that Corsair has been giving to us, deserves my money. Then on top of that, we have the best case ever. :up:
Btw do you know if the 8 pin cable of the HX620, can get up there to the motherboard, going behind the case? i think i can but only with de extensor cable :p:
Edit:

I found this now. Corsair provides HDD sata power cables with only 3cm between them, wich makes the connections in rigs with the HDD's very close a lot more easier, Omg http://www.avozdaaguia.com/avda/Smil...ult/love30.gif
Disappointed at the inclusion of firewire but lack of eSATA. The answer on their forums about USB 3.0 is a copout answer, especially with some parties working on powered eSATA.
Beautiful case. Love the pics on Bit-Tech. Can't wait to see some real reviews.
Its such a nice case, but the price, the delays and the fact that its not quite the next "must buy case" meens i will probably just order a ATcS 840 in the end to replace my HAF (ugly and made out of poor steel)
Cancel my last, could no resist when it came to preorder, cant wait !!!
any thoughts on watercooling this? looks like you can get a triple on the top easily.
