I don't know what to think right now, i'm just not sure it's right yet. I am very sure that having Snef standing by with a half finished build on NDA day is a total master stroke. The context of a build like that sells it really well, if I'd only seen empty ones at this point I think I would find it difficult to appreciate.
I absolutely love the fact there are no pressings and everything is thick sheet and all 4 sides can just slide out. No optical drives <3, no drive cages <3, no USB ports <3, no IO whatsoever <3. Great. The finishes look good on everything and I suppose the coloring is good to start with although the black one needs more black for me.
Then I sort of get onto the bits I find a little awkward, maybe the hexagons are too big and the PSU looks awkward at the top or the bottom but then I think hey it's so easy to mod. I could make the floor like the roof, put a 360 in both, move the PSU up to the middle, get rid of the rear fan mount.. and with every thought I get a bit more excited until I realise I would of changed every single part and spent £200 on four extrusions and two acrylic feet. But at the same time I say that about Parvums and I love those :mellow: I guess ultimately it depends on the nature in which it's available. If bespoke parts are on the cards I could get very excited but I have to admit it is giving me ideas and I have said many times in the past cases should be more expensive and have less features. It's very close to the mark for me, very close.
I hope that one day, I might be able to read the logo and recognize a letter that isn't C, E or 3 and maybe own one.
