    Umm... at least it's not a boring black monolith. Not the bonniest case ever seen, though. Or particularly small for ITX - boooooo!

    Oh, and it costs HOW MUCH? Think I'll pass, thanks.

    I've said elsewhere, that thing is screaming for a vertical stand to mock it up like mini Cray Supercomputer. :cooldude:

    It's silly expensive, it looks funky and it's waaaaaay too big for an ITX system, but I frikkin love it!

    Refreshingly different if shockingly priced.

    How do they extend the PCIE slot into the GPU module?

    Stands to reason. I thought there used to be issues with those (data corruption?), but I assume they've figured it all out.

    Thank you for sharing! It's been fun reading the reactions. Not for everyone's tastes or budget. Deepcool only made 50 and they're actually selling (Thankfully). It would be very embarrassing tom leaen that several hundred that were collecting dust in a warehouse. I've heard from 5 people so far, who have purchased one. Deepcool asked if I would do another "signature" mod for them next year. I told them Yes, but let's do something more affordable My video of the original case, before shipping it to their CEO.

    really cool case, refreshing to see something different, too bad about the limited quantity and the price though :p

    Awesome. If I were a rich imperial storm trooper that's the case I'd have in my digs on the death star.

    Think that press release may have been through a translating program more than once...

    I caught a local customer unbox my Deepcool Tristellar case in my latest vlog. I also giveaway a new Thormax GIANT tower! My goal for 2016 is to create a custom mid tower that is more affordable for everyone.
