I do not think it is going into mass production. Just a single unit is going to be made. ;)

This is going into mass production and will be sold internationally.
The winner will get the first case and name the case as they see fit.
Legalities regarding the design will be discussed with the winner.
Ah, OK, much more interesting, then! :up:
Can't wait to see the winner case actually built! :D
So let me make sure I understand this right. The best case gets put into mass production pretty much? If so, fantastic!
yes the idea is the watercooling community designs the case, at each stage the community will decide which case goes through and the winning case will go into mass production and you will be able to buy a case you guys had an input in making from your local reseller.
It sounds interesting, i'll give this a go I think!
Oh God, don't make them too expensive! I want a piece of XS engineering without having to take out my first loan :D
As a bonus, the winner get Aqua-girl with all her sweets :up:
Let me be first in line to buy this case, I am ready to spend couple of hundred of bux for this.
I wouldn't say it would be that high dependant on the manu he is in disscussion with as i know of two that would have the tooling ready for this kind of case.
With a few adustments to their current design I would think retail would hit in about 350-400$
That is more than reasonable imho.
If this really goes to mass production and in stores I might really be interested of buying it. It really looks awesome. I just wish that there was a slightly smaller version. It's a bit too big for my needs so a bit shorter model would be awesome :P.
and i just got a 700D... looks like I will be buying a new case AGAIN when the winner is made...
WoW Personally I couldn't think of a worse company to build this case than Auqatuning. :eek: :down: :( :mad:
A company that take part in Stealing other companies trading names, VERY disappointing indead.
I really love this case But I will personally never buy this case if Auqatuning have anything to do with it.
Please read this as to why http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=226794[/URL]
As for you zeropluszero did you even ask Mick about this?
Or did you just take his idea and hand it to the watercooling Devil!
. :down:
Honestly, just growing the 700d/800d to fit this would work the best for me.
However I would probably expand the bottom radiator area to accommodate dual psus.
Give me an aluminum front, and side panels, and steel interior, it's going to be heavy no matter what.
I've seen a youtube video with a quad sli + dual proc sr-2 system drawing well over 2000 watts.
But at under 400, I would seriously consider the case.
Dear Mr Troll,
I'm guessing you have based your feelings on dealings you have personally had and the service you have received from our company?
We would like to congratulate you on digging up an old thread again, here have a cookie.
As for Zeropluszero he has just stated his intention to enter the comp nothing to do with Mick. Mick was contacted directly prior to the comp by Bit-tech if you must know.
Now if you dont like the comp DONT enter it simples. If you dont like the case the community works so hard on to design and vote for DONT buy it simples. But Crying about it on here isnt helping anyone so take a tissue (they are free) and come back when you have something constructive to discuss.
Dear Troll Company,
Please leave into the rank hole you crawled in from. What are you guys trying to steal now? Some case designs? How about designing it yourself instead of taking it from others? You being here is extremely offensive and I for one will leave this site if you are planning on staying here. You are trying to take someone's dream and are going to turn it into a nightmare. You guys are crooks, it is what you do best and there is no image you can steal to cover that.
LMAO Aquatuning, you little liars.

Yet, in this thread you are syaing they will be mass produced and sold all over the world?Quote:
So the winner gets a case, they get to name the case and they get watercooling in the case. Based on the small qtys that will be made because of the very niche designs the prizes given will far out way any royalties of sales.
This thread suddenly got interesting.
mass being more than a handful and yes we would like to make to available to all.
There seems to be a misconception that this case is going to go off and sell in its millions and that the designer could get rich out of the royalites. Please note royalties make a very small percentage of the products cost so they would probably make enough for a few beers and that’s its.
I don't remember who said this first, but
Guys, isn't this heated a bit too much? Of course, untill those trademarks get released i won't be OK with AT aswell, but latest particular issue with that case design competition and/or royalties .. shouldn't it be between Mick vs AT and brought up to this level of flame in several threads with mirriads of posters only after issue failed to be resolved in normal way between those two sides?Quote:
