looks good.

**Brandito** · 06-01-2009, 03:08 PM

very very nice, i won't have to buy my own black sata connectors now.

seems like you guys considered just about everything.

**tajoh111** · 06-01-2009, 03:14 PM

Can the lower harddrive case be removed to fit another radiator.

**Vivi** · 06-01-2009, 03:18 PM

that is a HUGE case. but a certain must have

Il be buying one of these

**Kallenator** · 06-01-2009, 03:19 PM

Excellent, just gets better and better, just love the mat black finish!

And no PSU included either, perfect!

How is the ETA in Europe, Norway to be more precise?

**Brandito** · 06-01-2009, 03:26 PM

can we get a pic of the front i/o panel?

**570091D** · 06-01-2009, 03:51 PM

redbeard, my hat is off to you. that is a stellar case, i'm lovin' the cable management and tripple rad installation.

**Chruschef** · 06-01-2009, 03:53 PM

im not a fan of the curved window looks a bit goofy to me, but id have to see it with everything mounted to tell.

We did this for Computex with 4x Corsair P256 SSDs in Raid 0.

The finish is the same as the coating on our PSUs, by the way, so if you like that you should like the case.

As for ETA in Europe, I would say early July.

Great, can't wait!

**Meatpuppet** · 06-01-2009, 09:23 PM

Apologies if this is a dumb question, but I am not too familiar with SATA hot swap. Does this system play well with RAID configurations?

**~~MomijiTMO~~** · 06-01-2009, 09:34 PM

That case is gigantic! Look at all the rad space.

Yeah... it makes easy an integration of a TFC-360 + Ultrakaze inside it...

Waiting 4 this case to replace my Stacker.

**|SiLA|** · 06-02-2009, 02:34 AM

well done RedBeard

I hope to have one asap

**gatecrasherlok** · 06-02-2009, 02:42 AM

Sweet cant wait for early july to come.

**Mech0z** · 06-02-2009, 04:30 AM

Anyone know how thick a rad can be fitted in it without getting in the way of the mobo?

**Brandito** · 06-02-2009, 08:21 AM

Ryan over at PCPer has a video posted and some more info

cheers nice video i was looking for it

but now i have a doubt

that was the retail rls of 800D?

i was looking at the back of the "socket/screw hole" and it didn't match all the 4 screws so it makes it useless since i can't remove screw/backplate of my waterblock or whatsoever

i hope it's not the final one

**Manicdan** · 06-02-2009, 08:34 AM

yeah i was wondering about that backplate, and if there really is enough room to get in there.

how much testing was done with that feature? is there an estimate for what % of the motherboards will work with it?

**Brandito** · 06-02-2009, 08:38 AM

if you watch the video he states that it's an earlier build of the case and that they are or have reworked the back plate positioning for the final build of the case. he also says that there's some more retooling to be done before it's released to market.

redbeard may want to confirm any of this though.

It's a bit of a mis-speak. The backplate cutout works for a large number of boards, but once tooling was complete some new board designs came out from eVGA, Asus, and Gigabyte which move the CPU slightly lower and in the eVGA case, over to the right a bit.

We are looking at making the backplate access hole larger right now.

**Manicdan** · 06-02-2009, 09:03 AM

woot, we love corsair
