NCASE today announced it has opened preorders for a second production run of the community-developed small form-factor case, the NCASE M1. Preorders are open for a limited time at www.ncases.com, with production slated for the June-July time frame. Following a successful crowdfunding campaign in 2013, the limited run first edition of the M1 has been well-received by both users and reviewers alike. At just 12.6 liters in volume, it's one of the smallest available mini-ITX cases capable of housing high-end hardware. Thanks to its innovative design, the M1 achieves an unprecedented level of performance capability for its size, able to accommodate GPUs up to 12.5" and 240mm liquid cooling radiators. The NCASE team is a two-man collaboration that began in late 2012 as a project to design and produce a compact, high-quality, performance-oriented small-form factor PC case with input from the community.

NCASE Design today announced the complete success of its crowdfunding campaign to mass produce the innovative all-aluminum "M1" mini-ITX PC enclosure.
The campaign was created on IndieGoGo and launched on August 10th. The original goal of $67,500 was reached within 24 hours. Six hundred units of the case were made available for purchase. Within seven days all enclosures were claimed and over $135,000 was raised.

Due to high demand and accidental duplicate orders, a limited amount of additional M1 cases are immediately available for preorder via NCASE's website. Preorders will be accepted until midnight September 1st, 2013. The NCASE team is a two-man, grassroots effort born out of a shared appreciation for quality design and a desire to push the envelope for small form-factor enthusiast PCs.
