sounds nice and roomy
but
still using usb 2.0 with only 2@ 3.0. & 1 @ 3.1
 
gonna end up having to buy a addon 3.0 controller for more ports
 
$200+, to the door.... not me.

You made me check my ports .  M/KB only 2.0 and only USB im using atm and I think they are in 3.0 slots.

Does the case support optical drives? I still use it to install the OS.

No, none, optical drive bays are not in this case.. maybe time to ditch optical drives... i know i dont want to, but a lot of these newer cases do not support them.
Would like to see an add on to the case that could be put behind the "front" door, for fan controllers/optical drives.
Then i would feel it is more of a customized design.
 
I will see once i get the case, what can be designed to add-in, then see what i can do to get those to people that want that.

Jacob, I hope you have been reading this thread...
How will the preorder be implemented ?
Will it be through a link on the DG-8 page showing the count down and models, or will it be through the product link, and where to buy link ?
 
I just dont want to be spamming refresh on the wrong page.. 
 

opticals may be on the way out
but is not even close to completely gone yet

No, but the end is close... when its cheaper to purchase 8gig usb drive, then to ramp up burning to disks for game makers, and software makers.
Disks are cheap, but burning them is time consuming and costly.
its easier just to have it put on usb drives directly. and selling them in smaller packaging...as opposed to optical storage.
 
Most just download... i do prefer to have some kind of physical media.

50 pounds!? Jesus H christ Batman!

no optical drive bays that is it for me i am going to save my money. i got a blu ray drive and dvd burner.

Does anyone know if the included fans have LEDS and if so what color?
Thanks

They had a naming contest, and they went with DG-8 for the name?
