    Is it made out of plastic or aluminum?  No pics of the other side anywhere?

    Any info about international shipping cost of this heavy beast?
     
    There is also not much information about this case - I feel like preordering it is like buying cat in the bag.
    We need more pictures, more details about userd case fans, if window is acrylic, if there are sound damping materials etc.
     
    I'm very interested of buying this case - wonder if it will lower my gpu temps a bit.

    Interesting case, but oversized for my use... I tend to use mitx boards with one long gpu... The Hadron was perfect for me but I had problems with the PSU whine... We really could use an update to the Hadron case, making it fit at least e-SFX PSU's. When I saw this new case I though it was sized like the Hadron, its style would be perfect for an revised Hadron, but seems like I'll have to wait more.
     
    As I live in Brasil, I couldn't send my Hadron PSU to EVGA, so I let it go (sold) and got a Cougar case. Not the more refined in the market, but closer to Hadron's size and with the benefit of ATX PSU support.

    I think on an advertising standpoint, the pre-order was poorly executed. 

    At least from my point of view as a potential customer, I would like to better see the product itself.  If I need to jump through tons of different hoops just to see the product then I consider that a mistake.  The chart showing the differences in the case along with price points are fine. However, there is some information still missing.   

    Things that are important to me are: What is maximum card length size for the case? What sort of fans are attached? It lists the number of SSD/HDD drives available but how are they accessed?  *not meaning how is the case opened but installing them and securing the drives, what system is being used? Does it have a removable drive bay to make room for longer cards? 

    This has me asking more questions than answers I am being given. We can clearly see where the bottom power button is but where is the other power button? 

    I could go on but I think my point has been made. Its nice that a pre-order event is going on but how can any customer make any sort of informed decision before deciding to purchase this when there is so little information available about the product?

    Agree... As someone else pointed too, there's not even pictures from the back of the case. Preordering something that you want it's fine, but without having all the information about the product can be a recipe to product return.... At least a major site full review would do a better job.

    Case that looks like it's designed for watercooling. Shows up at shows with aiod up setup, doesn't show radiator support on spec page. Nor any mention of reservoir support lol.

    I like the case(DG-87) - but with the weight, I'm concerned about shipping costs, I imagine that'll be $40+ alone for US48

    That's why you pre-order it "save $50" to cover the shipping costs :)

    Jacob said all the info would be provided when the preorder goes live....if it bothers you that they went ahead and made a preorder page with some info just pretend they didn't and come back to look when it goes live when it will have all the information about it.

    At 51 lbs I doubt I could even lift it especially with everything inside. I'm going to need to rent a crane.

    Both are valid points.  I, myself, would rather have the info ahead of time to properly research and do comparisons so I know if it is something I want to pre-order.  My instinct tells me that this is something that will sell out fast, so if I want to pre-order one, I want to do so when it goes live to ensure I am not waiting a number of extra weeks to receive it.
     
    I understand both points of view.  
    No matter what is done, you won't make everyone happy.  I like the idea of the case, but definitely need additional information before I can come to the conclusion if this is something I would want.

    I should not be the one that has to convert the mm to inches for the dimensions.  Do it once for everyone so thousands do not have to do it themselves.
     
    It is done for the weight but not the size.
     
    BTW it is 27L x 10.63W x 25.3H.
     
    Thank you very much!

    Please let it have filters on every intake fan.  Case looks so sweet, I will def get one if it has filters.

    What does the radiator support look like? Def interested but it doesn't look like its gonna be very custom water cooling friendly.

    So, how many 140MM fans total can I put in is it 4x 140mm and 2x 120mm or is it able to hold 6x 140mm? I am just asking because I have been waiting on this for SO long and I am going to build the rest around this. One other question, the case is huge and can hold 4 way SLI but I heard it was not recommended to put 4 way 1080 graphics cards, so is it still possible to maintain 4 way sli with 1080s or no? Thanks!
     
     
    -Edit- OH MY GLOBS evga this thing has room for 8 3.5 inch HDDS? WHAT DID YOU DO? This is AMAZING!
