Does anyone notice that they remove the line "shipping in August" from the main page ? So i guess we won't get the case soon.

Is there a window in August that you could tell us? Early August? Mid-August? Late August? And will there be something to let us know before our accounts get charged? Thanks

Not sure what youre trying to say... a micro ATX in this case? Hotdog > hallway, computer style. I still havent seen anyone spit up how fat you can stack the radiators. We all know it can take two 420 radiators, but we have no idea how thick (fans included). Any of the 'reviewers' around that could take a measuring stick to it?

There still havent been any full reviews of the case either. The only videos out are first looks and basic overviews. Hopefully there are some full reviews out soon to tell us.

This is my biggest question also since i am putting my cooling parts list together but if you look some of the video's from CES and see EVGA's AIO cooling they are using what appears to be a very slim radiator and guesstimating from the stand off locations for the MB you don't want to use anything greater than a 30 mm thick radiator for the top or it looks like you will have clearance issues. Personally i am going with EK-CoolStream SE 480 (Slim Quad) i also know Alphacool has a 30 mm one also

Does a quad 120 even fit? I thought it was limited to either triple 120 or 140?

It would be nice if one of DG-87 ordered during first week/month have installed PSU 1000 T2 or some other PSU 1000 P2/1200 P2 and no one know who will get case with installed PSU inside and all cables connected.

So EVGA throws in a bonus power supply to one of the first 100 cases or so, sold ? As an added thank you for buying EVGA ? I like the idea ! , But it wont fly... , If EVGA takes a hit for shipping, plus a hit by reducing the price for preorder.. probably thanks enough.

Its sad, we may have a case delivered to us, before the case has a full review... Im still waiting for info that i PM'd Jacob about, for an add-on to the case im going to develop. PM'd about 1 month ago, yet no reply. Just need a couple measurement specs from inside the case... so now my development is delayed even further.

This case and 1KW EVGA PSU could serve people who knows how many years. Special people who always stay with some E-ATX or even bigger workstation motherboards. People still use SR-2 and she fit inside, same as similar motherboard. And for people who use bunch of HDD drivers. VERY NICE CASE FOR HOME WORKSTATION even if owner don't want to use watercooling. Inside people will not have problems with cables behind motherboard tray, closing side and opening side panels... Yes case is big, but because it's from two parts look great and not so empty as other full tower cases as 750D, etc... even if people use single graphic card. Bottom part on first ball could be looked as separate part and than no such impression of big, empty case ... This picture show that nicely...

That review has like, the dankest pictures ive ever seen. :') Probably a phone camera.. I'm planning on an asus formula board, which has an RGB lighting header onboard, as well as the ability to sync up with the RGB lighting in the asus strix 1080 videocard. Thermaltake also recently released some high pressure (for radiator) software controlled RGB 120 fans. So vormicia, can this case really take a quad 120mm or were you just jankin' it?

So I misread myself and luckily i caught it and changed to a 420 triple 140 but now EK doesn't make a slim 420 :( its 40 mm thick so that worries me if there is going to be enough clearance with a 40 mm rad and fans to not obstruct the motherboard connections. Unfortunately all these people EVGA sends the cases to just state the same things on EVGA's sight. Jayztwocents tweeted he got one he will be reviewing since he is a huge water cooling guy i am hoping he will give answers and have it done soon

Because case is very interesting and offer some unseen things on market. It's not build fast without order... just like that to build some huge case. They successful complete important mission, case could accept 4 way SLI with full custom watercooling but not look empty even with single card. With GTX1080 SLI and 280mm AIO CPU Cooler look perfectly. And price range is OK for people who build such hardware, 220$. It's build for 140mm fans, that mean silence but could be used and 120mm fans. In this case will be very easy once in month to remove all fans and clean with brush and back on place. You don't need to scratch fingers on tight space and panels are easy for removing, interior is accessible. It's not weird because they decide little different color for case not completely dark black. This Metallic color is attractive now. I think people will like. And Caselabs cases look nice in lighter (grey color) not only black.

Now when you enter in hardware store to buy new hardcore gaming RIG, if you don't order online... First EVGA 1KW Platinum or Titanium PSU and EVGA Case than easy other components. Basis is most important for every house and same for gaming PC. They will stay longer with you and they should be nice and fit nicely in your room, if budget allow you. People with 10 HDDs with 2/4 TB space and 2-3 SSD will enjoy with DG-87. This case from aluminum could cost even 400-450$, maybe even more if manufacturer can't to use completely flat panels. Only small number of people could afford that, instantly you lose 90% of customers with so high price.

I think people will need to use Silverstone 140mm dust filters on front fans. That will help a lot. Depend what they like more. Quantity of dust with them will drop for 80-90%. That doesn't mean you can leave case 6 months without cleaning, but for month you will have 90% less dust than without filters.

I was not sure if case have filter but it's better one more level. They could be easy install on 3x 140mm front fans. I would go on Ultra Fine model.

1 review down and hardly any new info. They then talked about case mods and such. No mention of type of fans (3pin or 4pin) number of channels (3in 3out or 4/5 in and 4/5 out) given number of fan positions. They did mention cable length issues with regard to routing if back of motherboard tray populated with drives.

There is so much to go over with this case I am sure some details will be left out . The most obvious things will become redundant . Typical reviewers seem to use mainstream data and just repeat what they research instead of looking at the actual case and then reviewing it . Just like the overview video a few pages back the reviewer had to use EVGAs website on a tablet to feed him information while filming . It just goes to show you they ship these things to people who haphazardly review anything throughly enough . Maybe some reviewers will read this and understand we require any info missed from other videos and not to rinse and repeat things I can read here myself
