Read more on the EKWB Mini-ITX PC case here.
 
I looked at the picture before I read the article and all I thought was "Well, I'll be damned that is a 360 in the front!"
Tom better have started bothering EKWaterbloks about beeing sent a review sample! :D
 
Looks decent. Need to space out the USB ports a bit more as higher end sticks tend to be thicker, so you'd only be able to plug in one at a time.

Some nice all black (braided) cables, rubber grommets, etc. I can see this work out. I do think the HDD cage placement is a bit... odd.
 
I like it. The rounded edge on the window is a really nice feature.

Price and availability unknown, currently EK has stated that this prototype is for design purposes only, so sadly we may never be able to buy a case of this or similar design.

That sucks though :(
 
I like it, Looks like you could have a very nice itx rig. The inverted MB design is going to be nice with a graphics card fitted with a waterblock. You will be able to see the business end of the card. I hope you have a backplate though as the card will be right at the top of the case and very visible through the window.

For an air-cooled card its a bit of an issue as that is where the hot air in the case will be due to convection. I would really like to see how it looks with a 360 Rad in the front and how much room you have for the plumbing.

I would definitely consider moving my mITX hackintosh to this case from a 250D when I go to version 2 - fully water cooled.
