Making progress on the prototypes. The covers just shipped and are going to be painted sometime next week hopefully.
I'd love to get my hands on one of these beta cases but would they ship to AU ???
No pictures?
Which 240mm radiator did you test?
Oops, read the post. It's not at your warehouse yet.
Can we get pictures when it arrives? With a 240mm radiator installed too.
So when is the retail release? Don't know if its worth it to beg for a spot in the beta since Im going to be pretty busy for the next 6 weeks. That means I wouldn't be able to give you any good feedback for 2 months.
As for the name:
Le Box
Why is that name so good you ask? Well... first it contains a little tribute to your french colleague who has been very helpfull by e-mail. But also the acronym "Le" can refer to that the case is fairly limited edition. It isnt exactly produced by the thousands yet... also, Le can be an acronym for "Lite".
So when Lan-Gear presents its catalogue you would have your Da Box, and your Le Box. Putting them together one would represent the bigger american case which backs a real punch. The other would express a more lean smaller look, like european sport cars... which still goes really fast.
You can thank me later by giving me a discount...
How about "Neutronium" since it'll be the densest container of computer parts in the universe?
I have already contacted you about about beta testing. I would definitely be putting it underwater and I would be willing to mod the case as well as provide pictures and feedback for the duration of the test.
I'd be willing to cover some prototyping cost as long as that cost some how incorporates itself into my retail price when I decide to buy the case. I don't want to pay $100+ to help you test, than pay again to purchase it when it goes retaiil.
I have everything I need to build a pc with this case other than a board/cpu but picking up an i3 and a mITX isn't a problem, I've just been waiting for the case.
The important parts I have on hand:
5870
bunch of custom watercooling parts. Blocks, Fittings, Rads, Pumps etc.
Hi everybody,
Wooow, it has taken a few weeks to get these cases ready for the BETA.
THERE ARE DONE!!! 9 of them. High quality paint, silked screen, revision 2.0.. All aluminum, compatible H50, compatible 240mm water cooling heatsink, HD 5970, ATX PSU, relatively tall heatsinks, etc... about the same volume as the SG05 -- I love that part-- And hopefully, all that in a classy enclosure.
Here is the schedule:
The case will ship Fedex Ground from the factory tomorrow. They will arrive to our warehouse July 8th. We will pack some electronic in it (switched, buttons, LED, etc...). It will leave the next Friday or Monday depending on my schedule.
In the mean time, we are building the list of BETA testers. It is extremely crowded so we are taking into account various factors such as:
- Do you have equipment on hand and what type (having a H50 and a 5970 is for sure a plus).
- How motivated are you to participate in the BETA? Being very active with DA BOX for sure helps; sending tons of pictures will do that too
- Are you willing to pay $100 + $5 (flat rate shipping) to cover some of the prototyping cost?
- Are you interested in modding the case?
- How soon did you request to participate in the BETA?
- Are you willing to get in a new adventure with us? That includes a few headaches, sweats, screaming and maybe some cuts (although we eliminated all the sharp edges -- thanks to the paint).
If you are interested and have not applied yet, send me an email at [email protected]. Everybody will be taken into consideration.
In the mean time, we should vote on a new name!
I'll do my best to be very active on the forum in the next days. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask!
Additional info
/!\ The tallest heatsink we could fit is 143mm tall.

I like MOMI. so many meanings.If it was to be called the Massive Overkill Mini-ITX, wouldn't that make it MOMI (mommy) and not MOM?
