    I couldn't help but notice a couple of dodgy looking mobo standoffs (notably in pic aeneas-11b).

    Were they just a bit loose, or are we looking at some quality control issues?

    Good spot. The pics were taken before we used anything so could be a slightly dodgy installation. Nevertheless, while I'll admit I don't screw in every single motherboard screw, I did use one of the slightly bent ones without any issue, so I don't think it's a concern.

    Raijintek generally make some very good stuff, I can recommend their CPU coolers, cheaper but perform just as well as the big boys, Phantek and Noctua.

    I like it a lot. I see a lot of modding possibilities for it.
