I hope we get to see the Slate. Will be disappointed if this is the flagship.

At least they did what I like on the C700P. Magnetised tempered glass doors on hinges.

haha why does it remind me of a aircraft carrier? probably the size

I like it. Could fit a whole lotta water in there

Bigger is not always better and they should know better the GPU vertical mount is too near the door, with the amount of room that case has they could have moved it in further for better GPU breathing room.

That is where a full ITX system will go. It isn't just a vertical GPU mount.

Oh ok but my point still stands the card that will be mounted vertically there still won't be able to breathe properly unless you use a founders edition, which is still not going to perform as well as an AIB will.

If you used a FE in there you deserve a slap.

Only reaction I can think of, especially with the ITX power button being at the back

 

[AlienALX]

Possibly because the ITX rig would be so low powered you would have it on 24/7?

Not sure there is point in it. If its on 24/7 then it means your waterpumps etc will be on 24/7. high chance, you will have 1 loop for all since it would look so good. So might as well have your main MB on 24/7 too.

besides, you can connect both MB to one power switch anyway with a Dual PSU connector.

Does anyone actually DO that dual-system-in-one-case crap? I don't know about anyone else, but I'm not feeling that. I'd much rather they focus on a single system case done PROPERLY.

 

[RobM]

its mahoosive and not really practical unless you have the gear to fill it I guess

OCUK does with their £30k rigs. Thing is, if you can afford £30k for a rig you wouldn't be worried about your leccy bill. Mind you, there is that saying "They are rich for a reason" IE - they may well just be as tight as aholes lmao.

For when your case needs a new case. Caseception. :lol:

Really? And i mean REALLY? Buying this case and thinking about AIR Cooler choking. Are you realizing how stupid that comment is?

It could affect water cooling too, depending on the block you choose, and what the inlet / outlet piece is like in terms of thickness. But I agree with your point, anyone even THINKING about air cooling in this thing needs a slap in the head. This is a water cooling case for sure.
