Fractal Arc Mini R2 winners - what are you doing with the case?

[Bluecube]

You are. I've been havering about it being a Cube.

Anyways it's quite tight inside if you're used to ATX sized cases but it's not that bad at all. I didn't have any problems putting everything together. Having the front panel on the side initially seems odd but it works quite well for a living room PC. As an every day "office" PC maybe not so much.

I do recommend it highly as a HTPC chassis as it fits in very well with hifi/ AV equipment.

i've not heard anything yet =(

[tamzzy]

am i like the only one that hasnt received it yet? typical lol =x

[naturbo2000]

Still waiting here. Well I'm not waiting, but I haven't received my case

[Bluecube]

Well, if DPD were delivering my case, then they've done a good job of cocking it up. No card through the door. Discovered online that it had been delivered to a neighbour. A neighbour who just got back from holiday tonight. I don't think I'm destined to get this case at all!!

[Bluecube]

Last call before I give up - who's got their case?

[SUMMONER]

Nothing here as of yet.

[naturbo2000]

I've given up. I'll do a review of the system I built instead when I get back from my holidays in a week and a bit

[tamzzy]

me neither.

i think virtuo was the only one to take delivery of a case

[virtuo]

Very odd that only one has shown up, I replied fairly quickly to the original PM, maybe they are shipping them out in the order the addresses were supplied (and only get them in stock one at a time). Bit of a long shot though.


Was BlueCube's DPD delivery a red herring?

[Bluecube]

Seems to be. If it wasn't then Fractal need to get in touch with me as the parcel has been "lost" and it's down to them to sort it out.

[tamzzy]

well if they dont wanna give me the arc mini r2, im perfectly happy with a node 804 instead and will do a review of it along with its watercooling potential xD seeing its a new case and all, it'll garner more attention lol

Mine arrived today via UPS. First impressions are that this is an ATX tower turned on its side - it's really big! Not quite sure what I'll do with it now as I've no parts to put in it.

Buy more parts!

Usual answer to anything, but it works.

[Bluecube]

Has anyone else got theirs now?

I've already got two PCs, a server and three laptops. Not sure I need another one!

[tamzzy]
