BitFenix Pandora ATX Case Detailed
BitFenix unveiled the Pandora ATX at Computex 2015. The case is a re-imagination of the original Pandora ITX case, launched last Computex, for the ATX form-factor. The Pandora ATX is scaled up in almost all ways to the original, and retains its styling. The case offers room for ATX and E-ATX motherboards, with eight expansion slot covers (so you can install a dual-slot graphics card on the bottom-most slot of your motherboard). There's room for CPU coolers as tall as 160 mm, graphics cards as long as 380 mm, and PSUs as long as 220 mm.
Storage spaces include two 3.5-inch, and three 2.5-inch internal drive bays. Cooling system is governed by a 4-channel PWM-based fan-controller, with a 2.8-inch TFT LCD display, giving you fan-speed and temperature readouts. Fan vents are aplenty, with two 140 mm (or three 120 mm) front intakes, two 140 mm (or three 120 mm) top exhausts; and a 120 mm rear exhaust. The front and top vents can each hold on to either a 3x 120 mm, or a 2x 140 mm radiator. Both these big vents have magnetic dust filters.

We can add a rail like on Prodigy M, but that would destroy the nice clean look...
We can add them behind the mainboard tray, but they wouldnt get any airflow and the case would be wider and look pretty bulky...
4 HDD locations should be doable, but not more, it would compromise the overall concept/idea of the case... sorry guys :/
But hey, if you got an idea where to put them, let me know and ill pass it on to the PM team! :)
And if we actually go for it, i promise ill send you one of the first cases as a thank you :D
hows that?
we should announce the date on our FB page in a few weeks :)

take a watch on the decal on side panel...
WTF... it also has a Tt AIO unit...
Could even mod it so the psu take air from the outside, which no one has done yet with a top mounted psu ?.
