Yes, we are discussing a shoot with Sweclockers and we are planing a trip to the anodization facility to get the Pangaea just right which has not been manufactured yet.
Yes, now more focus can be allocated towards these
No, none of the finishes are. they are all equally strong. Should a...
Guys,
We have been focusing some time (a couple of months) on getting the quality level right where we need it to be. This immense quality focus has affected the communication flow significantly and we apologize that it has been interpreted as ignorance. We believe that the end result will...
Happy Easter people! Hope you got all the eggs you deserved!
We were hoping to see some samples before Easter but it seems we will wait another couple of days before they turn up. As many of you probably know, in the more risky sourcing categories (aluminium being one, and steel another) we...
Sorry for the lack of clarity, the LOUQE special edition L12 will not be made out of graphene, this project is months away.
We have asked them for the following:
• Investigate possibility to add dark nickel-plating to the heat sink
• Investigate Redux fan alternative, suitable for pull...
We have described our graphene project to them and invited them to join us on this, We are getting the results back from the verification program that has been going on for the last months in just over a week from now. If it proves to work we are looking at a material that is 3 times as...
It's basically up to us to ask for more, they want to help in any way they can. But we can not make changes to the tooling, meaning all the metal components will be constant.
We have gotten Noctua involved in this project. So far we have arrived at the following:
Big YES for a special LOUQE edition of the L12 for you, still unclear if LOUQE will need to take any stock, does not sound like it
They will have it ready in time for shipping of the Ghost
Special LOUQE...
We will do everything in our power to manage are resources well and have them ready in time for the delivery of the Ghost. IO is the toughest one but it showcases the molecularity best and is by far the most valuable one according to the community so it has high priority. Can't prommis anything...
They are comming! We have made a preliminary prioritization of the add-ons and this is it:
All slackers that were invited yesterday have gotten the chance to add their votes to the add-on prioritization excessive.
Currently it is looking like this:
Righ away, we are executing:
- Dust filter...
We are testing two different anodization methods for the white case, alkaline anodization, and micro plasma oxidation. Both give a very exclusive look and probably like nothing you have seen. The second one is less established and significantly more expensive. Either way we are developing...
The provided volume of the case on the homepage is the actual case volume everything included. It is not a perfect cube so it not as simple as multiplying the outer most dimension (188 x 140 x 322 mm) but take the projected area of the case and multiply it by the full height 188mm. Top area...
I mean it is simply quieter and keeps an 8700k cool enough. With defensive fan setting you'll never hear it if you can live with temps getting close to 80 C
Check out Faggans build, he is modding the side panels as we speak and mounting TG on them. We have this as an add-on and if has proven...
We have involved SIGMA anf FLEX in this cooler project that will start in march together with the Swedish company that has developed the material. Naturally we don't know how long this will take to bring to the market but with huge players such as SIGMA and FLEX with us on this we should have...
The collaboration platform will work as a channel to communicate with backers (and others) more efficiently than through email. Add-one will be discussed and developed and STEP-files shared. It will be a very transparent area where we will be able to publish progress in one area more efficiently.
As far as we know, any 120 AIO will perform worse than the L12, both in therms of temps and noise so mounting a 92 AIO just doesn’t make sense, or does it?
Also (don’t remember if it has been posted here) we are looking at a very exciting graphene based material that has 175% higher...
I believe it has been discussed here already. We are using an LP C13 power plug in the production model. It is what allows us to add the third PSU position (top position will not allow for easy water pipe routing)
We don't have the white case made, it has been a long tough negotiation that extended into the campaign. We have some sample pieces that can be seen in the campaign "story" and the white case that Fraggan has and can be seen in his build-logg is very close to what it will look like...
Yes, but it will need more reasearch and understanding before we feel confident We have the best solution in place. This is a first important step towards that.
It is on out add-on longlist.
We will update the picture as soon as we can and everything has been set.
I have not seen the need for fan grills, no.
You are not alone with this criticism. This is a solution to allow users that are traveling with the case to fasten the grill more securely. Also some B2B customers are...
The new TopTop PSU position sets an SFX PSU (with standard modular power cables sticking out below) at 38mm exactly. This is without any pressure or strain agains cables. You could bend the cables more or use adapters to find more space.
80 mm wide this one, no? It would have to sit with the...
The non vented glass side panels could end up looking like that. Personally I’m against plastic and prefer to avoid it if I can. But there are others in the core team that are pushing for acrylic. In any case, there will be many interesting discussions with the community, we can hardly wait!
We have a list of many small adjustments that will be presented very soon in hope for acceptance. With them the FTW3 will fit without TopHat and without tinkering!
We don't know the final result of the add-on projects at this point. we will need all the feedback we can get to make them as good as possible. And I mean in every single aspect, colors, materials, shape, funktion, compatibility, cost. EVERYTHING you can think of.
I agree with light wood...
The case is designed to maintain the exact same interface no matter if a TopHat is added or not. it is a true extension of the case with all the features available intact.
Please keep in mind the concept renders are NOT the proposed solution, they are qiuck and dirty made illustrations of the purpose of each add-on, so they are far from finished. At this point we need to make everyone understad what we are aiming for with each add-on project and we thought the...

Mounted in the right order it is pretty easy. first the bottom mounted TopHat with the radiators in place, leaving the CPU block and GPU hanging out the sides. then the rest.
