I like the case, but, 700 EUR? That's ridiculous.
wow 700 EUR sick
Wow, I was just about to comment on how it seemed the community was bashing the thing because Silverstone DARED touch the sacrosanct TJ07, hoping to improve it.
That price tag just convinced me otherwise. What the hell, Silverstone?!
and ppl was crying about NZXT Khaos price :D still TJ11 is stunning.
Looks very unappealing to me, it's way too busy.
So far TJ07 is invincible
The top panel seems like those old-school Chieftec, and it does not fit well with the case. It still looks kind of plastic-ish to me.
I can build another computer with 700EUR
They did say that it's a VERY early prototype, so I'm taking a 'wait-and-see' stance. I see good and bad in this one, but not at horrible as FT03 and RV03.
I'd love to see what Charles will be able to do with the final product.
$700 EUR has to be a joke.
Not too shabby, I like the more-aggressive direction the case seems to be going in. Not a fan of the rotated motherboard though.
But 700EUR?? :rofl:
I really don't think it is going to be 700EUR thats just not going to happen
The case's just awesome, but 700 euro for a case? Just lol
700 euro
they must have realize if ppl are willing to pay for corsair steel case..
" we must have gotten our pricing wrong"
lol
Obsidian gave good enough combo of features/looks/etc for people to still buy it at it's price. Here? OK case, but definitely not worth announced price. And niche for those who choose "the most expensive - must be the best" is rather small.
I received a email from a Silverstone rep saying it would accommodate a XL-ATX motherboard as well as a 140.4 + 140.2 radiator in the bottom the bottom hard drive bays can be relocated to the 5 1/4" bays without mods if needed. Being able to house such large radiators alone is why this is my next case.
That's nice to know; but still not for the 700EUR price tag.
looks interesting, doesnt look like theirs alot of room to mount a quad rad unlike the tj07, Also quad SLI with waterblocks mounted vertically??? And cable management hmmm.. hopefully they bring out a more detailed video soon to see its full potential!
Yeah I tried to get a price out of him all i got was it will be competitively priced with other enthusiast cases. So I am hoping no more than $900NZD or $480EURQuote:

Yeah Silverstone has dropped the ball on the cable management front but here's hoping the final revision might have something once the final motherboard tray is sorted. Not to sure about the waterblocks mounted vertically but I am sure it will be fine as I haven't read about any problems doing it.Quote:

Computex 2010 TJ11 is at the 6min mark and the audio is really bad but bearable.

Pics of the case are 19-37.
You must remember the case in the pics and video is still only a prototype. I don't personally like the 90 degree orientation but it does allow for excellent internal air flow without sacrificing the front drive bays which is a problem with the TJ07.

I suppose I'm not alone in my disappointment, I was expecting a bit more innovation.
How likely are the majority of enthusiasts going to utilize an evga sr-2 and the like?
It's an extremely small market, and to design a case around that possibility, where you manage to drastically increase your cost/unit based on extremely small market, is just poor strategy.
If you were going to target the HPC market, that might utilize the SR-2 in numbers, creating features in the case that would satisfy that market, would have been wise. However, the HPC Market doesn't generally watercool; so those features are mute.
Yet, for the rest of us? It just seems like a huge waste of space.
At that height, they could of created something like micks case, if it was completely targeted at the W/C market (another niche in itself, but probably far larger than the SR-2 market), they cold of created both top and bottom radiators, keeping the conventional atx design or even R-ATX. Possibly Changed the mounting of the PSU to behind the motherboard, well you get the idea, innovation, creativity.... not design by committee and the marketing department.
Who knows maybe they will surprise me... but the TJ-07 remains the king.
On the other hand, I think the FT-02 is a brilliant design for Air Coolers, and if it had hot swap bays, I don't think it would lose any sales to the 800d.
There is no need for any big innovation per se, imho most customers would be happy to get already existing designs/already existing solutions with minor evolutionary changes, like size adjustments for bigger components like motherboards & 140mm rads, obsidian like cable managment and so on. Especially if such evolutionary changes might cost less then "revolutionary design" with mega exclusive and high price and new shortcomings introduced by experiments in new design.
Well it would be another market for the case if it supported the SR2 but from the email i received in its stock form it will only be able to support the UD9 and EVGA 4xSLI, if you did mod it for the SR2 you would have to remove the fans + support brackets which would leave the holes in the side panels exposed, which in my opinion would be ugly.
