Very pleased withthe case beautiful build quality, with solid 3mm thick side panels and top. Fabulous engineering for the price.
I think for £119 its really 12/10 value wise. The additional screws are very poor quality though, but the actual case is stunning quality, its as though someone put in the wrong acessory box, ?
I did notice that 2 of the 9 pre-installed Motherboard mounting posts looked different ?? Instead of a 6mm hexagonal post with a square end , these 2 have a sort of shoulder , admittedly they do have a spare 6mm long one, in the nice compartmentalised plasic box with all the screws.
These 2 different ones are both in the middle position, one on the top row of 3. And the other differently shaped one, again in the middle - but in the middle row. All the 3 bottom row ones are the same squared ended type and are 6mm high.
As these 2 looked longer, I measured them - and they are 7.05mm high i.e. Just over a mm longer and not squared off but seem to have a sort of sloping "shoulder"?
Is it normal on an ATX case that 2 mounting points are longer?
For a novice it seemed weird - as I have assumed the back of the mother board would be flat.?? So one would want the mouNting posts all to be the same height to make sure the MB is not bent as one screws in the secuRing 3mm screws.
I can't check the MB yet, as it is due to arrive on Wednesday with all the other stuff.
Any ideas? Should I be getting some replacement mountiing posts from Phantek?
BTW the Asus Hyper PCIe to M.2 pcie card arrived today - looks very well made, great quality.
