There's a saying "a fool and his money are soon parted".
I can't blame pointfiveo for being cautious with his purchase. He is more than right to want answers before committing and he gave them more than enough time.
I'll just say this, but only now because I know it is too late to change. (And many may not agree with this opinion.)
I don't think having early bids and limited quantities/tiers for pricing is beneficial.
Some may rush for getting the few early bids but afterwards all the people that will...
That's a bit high... The original Dan Case had "only" 1,530 backers and it was a success. The second run, with high demand had around 2100 backers... I want one Ghost case for myself but I wish you very good luck.
It looks good and appears to have a better finish than the A4-SFX, at least from the renders.
I don't know if having the PSU fan pulling hot hair from the back of the graphics card is a good idea but probably proper testing will clarify that.
Regarding the Noctua NH-L12. I just did some research on it and apparently using it with the bottom fan on an AM4 motherboard may be very difficult. Perhaps only possible using a slimmer fan.
There is this review on amazon explaining the problem:
I love the absence of front usb ports. It's so clean and pretty that way.
Wouldn't be better to incorporate the light above the power button into the button itself?

If you want to close the case while you wait for the am4 bracket you can do so by just replacing the fan on the wraith cooler with the fan of the cryorig c7.
It should be easy and work.
It's not like other people don't care about the aesthetic aspect of this, I know I do, it's more like it shouldn't come at the expense or detriment of performance. If it was only a question of the cost of nickel platting it maybe enough people would be willing to pay for it, but maybe it has an...
dondan Regarding the noctua fan, this may be of interest to you: http://www.pcgamer.com/noctua-spent-four-and-a-half-years-designing-its-quietest-strongest-fan-yet/
You knew it would happen, maybe not so fast or from here...
But I agree with you on the way things are being done and there is something that is bothering me even more than that.
If they are making so many changes now, and by the looks of it quite important too, what were they "selling" on...
I have a question and haven't found an answer for it anywhere.
What is the clearance above the bracket for GPUs? I see that a asus strixs card fits. That card has 134mm of height, how much is left still?
It is not always about the "more MHZ". It can be about features and compatibility. It can even be about aesthetics for some.
You can chose to not support this or whatever motherboard you want but you don't need to purposely be dense about it.
I can give you an example, although now most...
My mistake, I thought you mentioned Noctua.
Well, considering that even the stock cooler for the new AMD RYZEN cpus won't fit in your case, your new cooler can't come soon enough.
I asked Dan the other day on this forum and he said no.
He also said that he is working with Lian-Li on one that will work with the Dan Case.
For now the only board with that connector is the new Asus Z270 itx.
Thanks for answering and confirming.
This would/will help me choose the motherboard I buy for my build.
If it is not too much to ask, will the upgrade kit will be Type-A or Type-C?
Thanks.
Hi everyone.
Maybe Dan or someone else can answer this.
Would the new Lian Li USB-C 3.1 front-panel connector (PW-IC01NH45) be a suitable replacement for the one on the Dan A4 Case?
Thanks.
