    I find that strangely cool. I've got no need for a case at the moment, but I'd be tempted if I did.

    I quite like the look of that chassis as well.

    It's a nice size for a uATX case and looks fairly sturdy for carrying and flinging into the boot.

    Odd handle placement.
    Even with the PSU at the rear, wouldn't that be a little nose heavy?

    I like it - if I needed a luggable machine it would be on my list
    its almost cooler than shuttles for a mini ESX lab.

    Re: News - NZXT launches Vulcan chassis: the logical choice for your next LAN party?

    If I didn't already have an NZXT M59 and a good ATX board I'd definitely get that case along with a eVGA SLI Micro

    EDIT: It seems it "can" support coolers up to 16.5cm but obviously if you add a side fan it'll only support up to 14cm roughly. Wish they just made it a few more cm wider and allow a 120mm fan to be installed on the back.

    Prefer my SG03; it's smaller and looks much better IMO. Doesn't have as many slots or fans and the side mounted PSU does restrict CPU coolers though.

    Re: News - NZXT launches Vulcan chassis: the logical choice for your next LAN party?

    Slightly smaller then a P180, could be a good case. Ibuypower are already offering dual 5970 built around the case lol, release date states 20th may on NZXTs website, if thats to the UK or not is another question.

    would be nice if someone did an SG05 style case with space for an ATX PSU and more mobo makers made mini-ITX mobo's

    would be a good idea for AMD to encourage it so they can take the market for super powerful, super small PC's

    165mm ( without side 200mm fan)
    that 165mm with the side panel fan, I'm guessing because the mesh side sticks out and the 180mm width doen't include the sticking out mesh.
    Still that's enough space for a TRUE or almost any air cooler, shame about the 92mm on the back, you could run it as vertical exhaust instead of the rear being your primary.

    however what's this?

    Looks like an h50 in 92mm
