Anyone know if you get charged when the order is placed or when the case actually ships in August?

I'm showing a $1 pending charge on my card but not the whole thing, I guess I'll know next week or if Jacob confirms.

Some questions (I'm really thinking about preorder)
 
Is there any dust filter on the top of the case or not? There is almost no pictures of the top of the case...
Will it fit also 240mm and 280mm radiators on the top like Corsair h100i or h110 (I assume yes if there is info about 360 and 480)?
Any idea how much GPU Airflow channel will give you when having two blower styled cards? Did Evga maybe test this? 
 
How the bottom of the case looks like? If my desk is 5cm shorter than the case will that have any significant impact on the stability of the case (so how really the legs are oriented)?




Filter is on the side (front) and PSU intake.
 
It can also fit 240mm radiator or 280mm radiator. It can support 360 and 420 as well.


Thanks Jacob for fast answer.
I really hoped there is top dust filter - it's a must have for me (and many cases has it).
In this case I'm not going to preorder it :(

I'm sure you can find one of those magnetic dust filters for the top.  I have air blowing out the top so doesn't bother me.

I'm pretty sure they charge $1 to make sure the card is legit and charge the full price with shipping when the order is ready to ship in August.
 
But now that you mention it mine does show up as a preorder in my account so that is odd.

I also have blowing out fans on the top but they are 2x 120mm (Corasir H100i) so there is still 2cm gap.
You cannot install magnetic dust filter because it won't fit. The screws from H100i has really big heads so I was looking for flat ones for a really long time but cannot really find them anywhere:/
I'm pretty sure most of the dust currently is getting from the top of my case and I really want to solve that problem.
I just wonder how the top mounting looks like in DG8. Maybe there is additional indentation so even the heads you can fit magnetic dust filter?
 
Additionally I think that those front and back grills will catch a lot of dust.

I've read the specs but I still gotta ask.. 
 
Any way this case could fit HPTX? Would love to get my SR-X build in it




SR-X will fit, but you'll sacrifice the mounting point for the reservoir if you're watercooling. 


Great news!! I went ahead with my preorder.
 
So, just to clarify, I shouldn't have to drill my own mounting holes then? I can't remember if HPTX shares the same mounting points as other form factors.
 
Losing the reservoir bracket is fine for now, I'll be moving to custom watercooling much further down the road, when I've done a full system upgrade. 
 
Hoping this will be able to mount 2x980Ti waterforce cards, their closed loop lines run rather short..
 
Thanks for the assistance, Erin And Jacob!
