    EVGA Hadron Chassis

    http://www.evga.com/articles/00777/#Air

    Looks to cater for the proper mini-ITX crowd with an array of features like smaller coolers and slot load optical drives.

    Can see it being quite popular amongst the SFF crowd, specially with that power supply.

    The PSU is really what makes this case imo. The Hadron Hydro looks very promising too.

    Looks really nice. I'd love to build a Steambox using that.

    What is the difference between the hydro and the air chassis wise? cant see much detail.

    Edit: D'oh, dumb question. The video had a much better look at the hydro, seems cool!

    Looks like room for radiator and mounts and bulkhead fittings??

    I don't think anyone will really know the subtle differences until they release it.

    Btw, I still have the issue of CPU magazine with the article about your flow rig in it sitting next to my crapper lol, I read it like once a month out of boredom, still a really cool rig

    I want a small rig as I might be moving across the country soon. very interesting.

    Thanks man, I still use Flow today (albeit a very different and less pretty rebuild due to various issues along the way.)

    I feel like the front panel could use a fan controller.

    And the asymmetrical stand is a strange decision ("feet" at the front, none at the back).

    Other than that, looks nice.

    Nice case. but the price misses the mark imho. http://www.evga.com/Products/Product...110-MA-1001-K1

    The custom 500w GOLD psu is what brings the cost up. I would say that the price is pretty fair. It's no different than buying the much larger Bitfenix Prodigy after you buy a PSU for it.

    This, the power supply alone is about $100 so $90 for a niche case isn't bad at all.
