Coolermaster has been promising to release that case since May.
Don't think I will ever buy another case from them after purchasing a
Wavemaster, which has a nice visual design but is dysfunctional because
of restricted air flow. Praetorian's slide out tray contains two 80mm
fans and some customers were led to believe that they could buy that
tray and swap Wavemaster's with the newer design. It never happened,
guess that production costs did not meet the company's profit margin.
So I'm stuck with a case that has to be modified in order to maintain
reasonable CPU temperatures. Additional fans here and there, an air
duct in the side panel, boring larger holes than the existing in the
front grill, removing the bezel which restricts air flow, a Zalman heat
sink fan - Jumping through so many damn hoops just to fix a catastrophe
that was badly designed by their engineers.
I hope they charge 1,000 bucks for the Stacker 830 when they have
finally finished designing it.
