Maybe this is a dumb question, but does this case come with motherboard standoffs? I haven't seen them in any of the "included hardware" pictures, and according to the product manual, they're not included? I thought standoffs were a standard inclusion for cases?

 
If you look closely it seems there are built in standoffs

 Are you talking about those little round nubs? I think you're right.


Jacob can we get confirmation that those are built in standoffs?

I have almost all my parts ready. Just need my MSI GTX 1080 Seahawk to come in which will probably take a week or two. All my tubes and my fittings are in. I kinda wanted the case out for delivery now so that I can create some of my bends and visualize how my loop will look like in the end.

Newegg is listing the case release date as 22th of September.
I sincerely hope that just means the second batch, cause damn..
By that time its almost worth it to wait for kabylake and 1080 Ti.

This has already been addressed. Jacob said, EVGA would still be shipping in August, plus he stated on last weeks podcast that all preorders would be filled by the end of August.

Even if they ship the case on August 31st @ 11:59pm it's still considered August . Patience is key especially now it the late game of the pre order . Most people who can't wait usually end up cancelling the pre order and moving on . However just wait and when it arrives it will make it that much sweet .

In in the same boat most of my new components are still wrapped in boxes waiting but I'm not giving up on this case

I'm just worried this thing is gonna be shipped and billed 12 hours after they sent an email saying;
"Hey man, shipping is 100 dollars but you didn't cancel so were gonna go ahead and charge it."
 
Really all I wanna know for certain is how bad the shipping is going to be, thats the only potential show stopper for me.
And id rather find that out today so I can make a decision, than waste 3 more weeks of my time.

For me shipping cost was calculatedly to total by zip code and type of shipping my total was just under 200 for the -86 model and shipping was like 48 bucks

As it currently stands for my pre-order, my shippingcosts will be exactly 0 euros.
I mean, ill take it, but I doubt they are gonna let it slide.
My fear is they are going to select some jackass delivery service like Fedex,
which charges astronomical shippingcosts here in the Netherlands.
And if thats indeed whats going to happen, I want them to tell me now,
so I can cancel and move on with my plans and some other case.

All preorders are planned to ship within 1-2 weeks. Will continue to provide updates as we get closer.
