Geometric Future Unveils Model 8 series Cases

[btarunr]

Geometric Future, a new startup design company from China unveils a new Model 8 series of premium mid-tower cases. These cases have unique vertical thermal tunnel design allows you install your components like Motherboard and graphic cards in 90 degrees, It supports E-ATX motherboard and up to 420/360 Radiator in the rear side and 360 mm radiator in the bottom.

Meanwhile, you could manage your cables on top of case and retain the clean outlook from outer rear side. With its solid structure and material (1.0 mm steel and 4.0 mm tempered glass panel) Model 8 offers the premium quality of build. And despite the vertical chassis, the Model 8 does not forget its modern appearance and offers three vertical PCI brackets that will allow the graphics card to be seen through the side tempered glass panel. With three brackets and a little extra space on the side, the card should breathe enough.



But all this, plus the power supply at the front behind a rather imposing cover, is nothing compared to the little extras of certain versions.

The Model 8 series comes with several design variants. Initially offered in black or white for 169 euro with the Lohan version, it is available in Dharm for 190 euro with an aluminium plates and Type C connectors, while the Cowboy version, at the same price, is offer genuine cowhide leather.

They are now listing on Amazon.

Huh, even better than the last. Still, not enough intake area at the bottom, but having the exhaust fans on the GPU side might be a good idea? Too expensive given the lack of tooling and luxuries like cable grommets, but looking forward to future releases.

I would probably go with intake on the GPU side and bottom, exhaust through the roof and PSU. No reason to starve the GPU

You can have fans on rearside(bottom of conventional case) as intakes similar to Torrent or Lian-Li O11 series and it helps GPUs cooling massively. With regards to bottom, yes it needs to be elevated by about an inch or so for improved air intakes.

nice clean design but... I don't like the interior, especially the PSU side

Yeah, maybe position the psu up top so it can exhaust outside of the case. It's a clever design. Nice to see them searching for alternative solutions with these space heater gpus coming out.

It's basically a 12 years old "modernized" Silverstone Fortress FT02 without the front 5.25" bay and bottom 3.5" HDD cage

You’d think they’d design the rear as an intake but it doesn’t look like there’s a filter

We can install 4 fans in the rear, 3 maybe 4 on the buttom and 1 at top..

Why not sacrify 1 fan at the buttom to have 2 on top ?

Because if we have rear + buttom intake and only 1 exaust with the powersupply.... the heat will stay around the motherboard VRM no? (if it's a gamer setup)

The top is where the IO goes — there’s no space for two fans

Agree !!
But if they put the powersupply on the buttom and keep the metal plate, it's possible to open enough space for 1 more fan and even hide 1-2 hard drives no?

The alu case is beautiful btw

Maybe 90mm or so
