Awesome case! I’m hoping for a Computer-2 with more space for a larger GPU.

[Deezeone]

Can we get the list of used motherboard and other components??

I am looking to purchase two of these cases however the GPU height is an issue, add 10-20mm to the top and you enable 3060 GPUs. As is I can only find a 3050 card that fits this height, unless I am missing something.

I actually like this case. It is everything I’d wish for. SFF, stylish, unique and not full of rainbow RGB strips.
The price is, well… pricey, an $80 cut would be nice, but uniqueness and quality may make up for it. Not even mentioning the prestige of the brand behind it.
And yes, the GPU size could be larger, but you can get plenty of computing power from a 180 mm card. You can fit an RTX 3060, which is a pretty decent card IMO. Most people who would want to have a better GPU would probably buy a bigger case due to thermals anyway.
I think there is a market for it, even with that high price tag.

As much as I love this, and all TE products, right now I just want to get the details on that on/off switch they are using for the build in this video because it would look great on a build I am doing.

[Tiger.Arcade]

This actually is pretty cool. It inspires people to build and experiment more. I for one know id learn a lot through this experience while also building the inside.

[alex_oiman]

its cheaper than i thought i'd be but still twice what i'd pay

[David-xtob]

I love the look and style of this... to many PC cases follow a "gamer" look. But that said if the metal is so easy to bend I doubt it would make a good case. Also having to use a mini video card in this day in age of crazy VC prices is just too limiting.

[AbstractCatsMedia]

I want the soundtrack to this video! Such creative and inspiring minds at TE! :D

[lfefrm]

It has to run pretty loud, no? Is there room for adhesive dampening material on the inside of the panels?

[tiber]

Love this case but @£200 it's £100 too expensive imo.

[_skysick_]

I guess we were naughty and this is our coal.

[NALTOdeluxe]

I love this. The case, the presentation, and that MUSIC.

[cameronlane]

Airflow looks like it doesn't exist in this thing. A single 92mm??

[The_Clint_Beastwood]

lol the music kinda sounds like the soundtrack for the movie "liquid sky"

[jchx]

oh crap, it's beautifull! but too small, I need fit a 3090 inside to be happy.

[szymonmirek]

I love this, but I can't buy it since it's too small for modern graphics. I would buy a bigger version in an instance

[Michael_john_mentzer]

does this case support 2.5' ssds?

[오원식]

teenage engineering have power to make attractive very random things, i knew this company for music stuffs now they making computer cases suddenly and i want to buy it!
what a company i hope they sell this long since i have already computer, next time i'll build a computer for this case XD

[SonicVibe]

Loosing trust after how badly the opz was built the pocket operators about the only thing ya got right and even them flimsy but with a case ok take the op1 and opz mash them together and put it in a quality build and you will sell more then any groove box ever made price point 600 to 800 the opz was close but skip the damn plastic man
