    Congrats of shagging up with Enermax. How did you manage to get them on board? Local representative, or someone at Enermax HQ?

    Before sending model to the CNC, I had to redesign some things.

    First thing to change was case feet-now they are smaller and look more agressive then previous model. They are also thinner- 8mm compared to 16 mm before.

    [​IMG]

    Case itself is now 6 cm lower and I don't have any unused space between central structure and floor. Number of case feet was also changed-6 compared to 5 before.

    [​IMG]

    Central structure is now 14 mm (16mm before). Now I will use 2*3 mm + 8 mm plexi instead 2*8mm.

    There are also new PSU mounting and MBO tray. Changes are mostly estetical,but PSU mounting now support rubber inserts under the PSU if they are needed.

    Well,I don't know what that means,but Google says this: " The act of opening the mouth convulsively to catch the breath; a labored respiration; a painful catching of the breath."

    So, thank you! :D

    Thank you Dan. Nice to hear that you like it.

    Thank you. If you love this-wait until you see final design. I changed it so it can be cut on smaller CNC machine, so now everything is going to be 100 % work of me and my friend.

    What you see above is version 3-pics of version 4 will be uploaded today. ;)

    Hi everyone!

    As promised-here is the new Scorpio. I compared this new model with first one and you cas see what is different-case is lower,shorter and has different organization of components.

    Now I have more space for bigger components in smaller case. For example,I now I can put 32 cm long GPU's inside.

    yeah, i have a tendency to recycle memes cause I'm a tad lazzzzzy

    But, please, please, PLEASE tell me you just omitted fan models for simplicity's sake. Still looks epic, and the beefier hardware potential just made my head 'fatboy itself :hehe:

    Well, yes, I was a little bit lazy to put fans on the model. ;)
    Don't worry,they will be on the actual case.

    And because I know you want to see new Scorpio with the fans, you will get it. And also final color scheme of the case. ;)

    @siliconfanatic:
    Here is something for you mate-final color scheme and fans. ;)



    I have chosen transpern-black plexi color scheme. I think it will look great like that.
    Also,CNC will start work on case very,very soon so there will be sone nice updates. :dremel:
