An essential purchase .

Ok, you showed it off.... Now the question is... Who's gonna use it at your home?

silentbogo · Dec 3, 2016

Check out my crude "Pixel art" :slap:

Got a pack of Gateron Browns for my mech keyboard redo. The remaining batch of shitty used Kailh Reds will go towards my homebrew Bluetooth KB project.

You won't use the mouse thats included I guess?

No, not at the moment. I tossed out a older Logitech mouse I had in a stash of parts/components/cables. The mouse was better than I expected, the buttons have less clicking sound, invisible optic, and rubber coating around the bottom/sides.

oh i have almost all that sitting in a cardboard box after the pump decided to fail and i swapped them for a h115i ... (who look not so bad and the tube braiding looks gorgeously paired with the carbon corner of the Panzer Max )

biffzinker · Dec 3, 2016

Damn, that's expensive for just one fan. :eek:

lucky for you i didn't include the total pricing of that ML120/140 order ... nearly as expensive as the case :laugh:

(lucky me i had point to redeem for a discount

)

FireFox · Dec 3, 2016

@GreiverBlade

I like a lot that case, maybe i am getting one

I hope it's bigger than my Lian Li case.

I hope it's bigger than my Lian Li case.

probably smaller height, it fit 3 140 like yours but nearly full height and no 5.1/4 left if done like that (who care ... it's just a waste of space anyway ), less storage space (4x 2.5" 2x 3.5" ) 8 PCI slot instead of 10

PC-A75
Dimensions
(W) 220mm
(H) 585mm
(D) 590mm

Panzer Max
Dimension (WxHxD) 266 mm x 612 mm x 556 mm

mmhhh nope not smaller ... taller .... but a lil shorter (D) (taller due to the carry handle tho ) wider it's logical in the end it's almost a dual chamber :laugh:

good point it use plastic for the outer part but feels totally sturdy and awesome, the side panel are heavy and feel fantastic

literally in love with that case ... in fact it was my dreamcase since i saw it ... similar to my InWin GRone in the outlook and pricing but 1000time better built.

my only cons:
top rad no push pull and i had to affix the fans above the chassis right under the mesh grid (if left like it was in my Air540 it would not fit

nonetheless funny pics...

for me it's more a air case or rigid tubing with a lot of work... i can't see myself do a custom loop like i did with the Air540

more than enough for air cooling tho

Pictures of the mouse bundled with the keyboard.

biffzinker · Dec 3, 2016

Bonus: Backside of the keyboard (I should of originally of posted)

@Recon-UK, mouse looks familiar doesn't it? :cool:
