Nice but ouch my wallet
I like the vertical GPU option so that you can really show off that expensive GPU plus water block, but the price tag is a bit ridiculous. It's also a huge case, as it can seemingly easily soak up a 560mm radiator in the front standing vertically.
Get it? Soak up hahahaha. I suck
The materials are high end, it's very flexible, and the general options are fantastic, but at this price you are getting into high-end Caselabs, and their 2mm thick pure aluminum panels, and glass friendly transparent window setups are hard-to-beat.
Also THIS much water cooling isn't gonna be as important with more power efficient video cards, and nVidia's new designs don't "officially" support 3-way SLi anymore either.DS340-E: Core I7 3770K Undervolted at 4.3Ghz, Asrock Z77 Extreme-3, 16GB of Adata XPG V2 gold RAM at 2200mhz, XFX R9 290 with EK water block and (I love) gold backplate, EK tubing, Bitspower and Darkside fittigs, Darkside RGB lighting with handy remote control, WD Black Dual (120GB SSD+1TB mechanical) hard disk, Swiftech PWM fan controller, Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit

As mentioned that kind of price your starting to look at a lot of other boutique case brands. But I really do like the rotated video cards and the glass over plastic is a nice touch.Corsair 800D

Just read a post at Phanteks forum stating the trail production run of this case was canceled do to some problems.
They would not elaborate on what the problems were or when they might actually release this case.
This has been in design now for over a year.
IMHO it's time for Phanteks to shit or gets off the pot.
I don't want to see another ad or mod about this until they can release to public.Blue Dragon CM690 II an i7 - 960 x58 build
