The ASRock's CPU socket is positioned further towards the top edge of the motherboard (about 1 cm if I were to guess). How much room do you have between the C1 and the top flange of the L3?

Filters will impact airflow to some degree. Just try without, and see what happens. The vented side panel is the way to go... if only I had one to give you. Thanks for the PM Siba. I haven't been getting email notifications on new posts to this thread. As mentioned in the PM, the mounting...

Audio interference could be a possibility. Unfortunately, I don't know enough about it to be of much help. I'd search around and see what you can find. Using shielded wiring couldn't hurt, but I'm not sure if it's necessary.

Hi, I appreciate your interest, and for subscribing to the mailing list. I don't have any plans to add front audio jacks to this particular design. You may be able to find a "panel mount" headphone/audio jack to add to the case. You could certainly mod the case, and mount something at the...

Perfect. I like how you're exhausting out the back rather than creating more vents in the side panel.

I'd be interested to see what one (or two) 80 mm case fans would do to remove built up heat. Not sure if you can wedge some in there or not? They may remove built up heat, but that's all though. Also, I wonder if your vent screen has any significant effect on ventilation?

Very cool! :) Are you going to remove the radius corners on the wrap around side panel corners? Looks like they weren't there on the original concept renderings.

I've added support for the HDPLEX 250W with minimal changes, but I can't see adding holes without a specific purpose. The bracket has no clearance behind it and the front of the case, so holes by themselves wont do much good. I'm using countersunk holes. If someone wanted to modify the...

Not a bad idea, but I'm not aware of any alternatives to the PicoPSU that are as good as the HDPLEX 160W (or larger 250W)? Price increase would be less than $10 I would guess, but I'm already counting on having to produce more parts to offset all the price increases I'm likely to encounter. I...

Here's an image of a 2.5 inch drive bracket and HDPLEX 160W bracket all-in-one I've been considering. Can be rotated 180 degrees, and also allows the HDPLEX 160W to be mounted in four positions. Pros: - Simple, one piece design makes it easier to include by default. - Brings back the...

Which PSU and bricks have you used again? Looks like the EPP-300 could fit, but I'm not sure how you'd wire one of those up? I'll have to choose one or the other. With anodizing (black in particular) there may be tiny visible rack marks on the edges of the side panels. They can be...

I can't really guarantee that I could do that at this point. Would you like some photos of a black case with silver side panels on it? In descending order: Black, Grey, Silver I've only seen one request for red, and one for blue. I'd like to try bronze, but it's much more expensive to try...

For something like red/green/blue, I'd probably only need three or four people to do it. Most people are saying they want black, silver, or grey. Thank you! I'm pretty optimistic that there will be another batch of cases. Before I do a batch I like to evaluate things, to see if there's...

Thanks for the feedback. I'll probably just leave it alone (no pun intended). :) Maybe through marketing (logo, writeup, etc) I can help put a positive spin on the name. I've created a waiting list for the next batch of L3 cases, and includes colour preference. I'll probably use this to...

I'll be sure to start a new thread for any future cases. Wish I would've for the L3. Glad you like the name. The main reason why I've been thinking about dropping the name is because I worry about the negative connotations the name has. I was going more for the positive connotations... but...
