    Well this is getting exciting, isn't it? I'm at work so have to wait 'til I get home to see if it's arrived. Not hopeful for today, but Friday's got potential.

    It better had arrive, or I'm going to have to decorate a bedroom this weekend to take my mind off it

    I'm beginning to think they weren't shipped last week...

    Like most others, I've now ordered in the components for my system. Unfortunately that case is looking like the third place target for it all...

    Agreed, even given the bank holiday they should have been here by now. If I'd have known they'd have taken so long, I would have waited on buying the components and got newer/better kit as my budget will have gone up. Lot has happened in the last few weeks, and I'm now going to have problems if any of the bits I've bought are faulty.. Only reason I bought early was so that I could deliver on the "review".

    At the moment they are going to struggle improving on the current 0 out of 10

    Self-builders 101. Assemble motherboard, CPU, ram, gpu on the anti-static bag the motherboard came in. Hook in the PSU and check it posts. Anything beyond that is unlikely and an easy RMA anyway.

    It's all a bit of a shame - Fractal's customer service is supposed to be amazing.

    Competitions will be handled by the PR department though. PR 101 - don't irritate competition winners who are going to review your case!

    would have thought fractal would have emailed us something to at least tell us when they'd want to ship the case
    i know its free and all that and we shouldnt be arsy, but, i've spent like 200 quid buying another mobo and watercooling parts >.>
    and im sure others have spent more already =x

    Anyone feel brave enough to ask DR if they will upgrade us to R4s, assuming that the Arc Minis are not in stock?

    Or may be one of the Node cases, gosh I would love a Node 605 for the living room.

    Maybe we should contact fractal directly :-)

    I quite fancy a node 304. I could do a decent comparison against a cooler master elite 120.
