Can this support most 60% PCB? particularly Zeal60 PCB I have. Waiting on the luxury version, any ETA on that? Also any RGB planned?

Can't wait
yes it can support most of the 60% pcb. currently basic version is prototyping now. Luxury version have done the weight design so far.

Sounds great, please don't get discouraged by some people here, I honestly think what you are doing is for the better of the community

We used special CNC blade to shape the fantastic side angle of dc60. Without sandblasting and a anodic oxidation, the prototype already looks super good!

It seems like you have direct control of manufacturing these cases, which in turn the quality control will be pretty good as well! You are also going at a very fast pace which I appreciate, would the basic version be released first then luxury version after?

Poesjuh · « **Reply #69 on:** Sun, 01 July 2018, 02:37:15 »

If I’m correct this case will be available in;
- standard 60%
- wkl
- hhkb

We named it dc60 luxury version. So currently we are still finding the balance point between new design and basic design.

Easy. Give it a weight on the back, preferably a brass one, and call it the “luxury” version. Make the normal version this one.

I'm absolutely loving this case! The grey/green one is perfect for a build I'm working on.

How much does the prototype weigh? And if the premium version has an added weight, do you know how much that one will weigh? I've recently discovered that the heavier the better, at least for me, so I'm very curious how much this case will weigh.

Darknight00z · « **Reply #88 on:** Mon, 02 July 2018, 18:54:18 »

Is that a battery space I see? Bluetooth in all the alu might have problems?

Regardless, very cool, nice improvement over the fjell.

Hi guys, after 2 weeks brainstorming, there is the Deluxe draft design.(Top casing not only HHKB layout, standard and wkl will be available also)
3 things i want to hear from your guys:
1) The DC60 weight looks too big from the bottom view, how do you think?
2) Side view i am good, what is your words?
3) I am considering about add some LED

1) It looks more like an ALF design now. I think the weight should be ALF in the middle and space around instead of DC60
2) Side view is good imo
3) No opinion yet

I suggested when we discussing about the weight design, but ALF says they did something similar on X2. So let your guys make a decision:) DC60 more or ALF more? i already know your answer ALF:D

The past bottom designs lost me because they all looked too “mecha”. The ALF characters and the flat bottom only would be sufficient already imo

gnunin · « **Reply #97 on:** Tue, 03 July 2018, 23:27:30 »

I really like the DC60-weight. Looks good. ALF looks a bit too "space-y" for me. No LED's. Keep it more simple & have less plotter. Also, they are kinda annoying when you're sitting in the dark. Which, in Sweden, is like 90% of the time
