Luck! I'm in! I was disappointed I couldn't join the GB once I saw the pics coming in. Thanks for putting up the extras :)

Very tempting but not sure if ill have a v60 to put in it yet  :confused:
Was there a substantial difference going from the standard v60 case to this aluminium case?
Love the orange on white caps used in the photos too, can you source these?

They've nearly all gone  :o

In regards to the V60, they make a substantial difference. More weight, no ping, overall nice feel.

Orange/ red OW caps care coming soon, we are looking at sourcing a whole range of Vortex gear soon

Nice!

I am currently sitting in JH-Y7, that is likely to change a bit though as we have a big group of folks and need to move into our teams etc.

Will we get a notification when these ship out, or is it just going to arrive someday if we opted for no tracking? I've never done that before...

EDIT: Disregard, it arrived Saturday and I was able to pick it up from my leasing managers office today. It's beautiful!

I'm thankful for that packaging, the cardstock box was pretty damaged, but the case was just fine.

A couple questions:

1. Are any still available?
2. Will the case fit a Nerd60 PCB by GON (understanding the side LEDs on the PCB won't shine through)?
3. Do you ship to the USA?

Thanks!

1. Website says Availability: In Stock
2. I think GON says the Nerd60 PCB should fit any Poker compatible case, it's only his cases that do not fit all Poker compatible PCB's.
3. All signs point to Yes. I have mine in hand in Kentucky.

Thanks for the information! This is sorely tempting.

Got mine, gonna put it on my V60 tomorrow while I build my new PC :D although I don't want to lose my limited run number on the sticker. I might try and transfer it over.

Thanks for my free gift as well dude ^_^

Any plans to ever make this in silver or other colors? I really want one, I just don't know if I want black. Although I know black would look with just about any keyset.

We are looking at getting several new colours in stock soon  :thumb:

Any dates in mind? I'm about to get the 60% Alu case from Massdrop, but if you're planning on getting some new colours in that'd be fantastic.

Also, what would your shipping times to Australia be like?

Not sure yet, we're going to have a chat with Vortex and see what they can do.

Any colour requests, let us know man. I'm not 100% sure about dark purple, but purple may be doable.

Recevied your case this week , definitely would buy another one (if green color happens ) to match your cables  :thumb:

White would be my preference, gun metal grey would look ace too!
Title: Re: 60% Case (Aluminium) now LIVE @ Pexon PCs
Post by: pexon on Fri, 05 September 2014, 12:18:22
A nice dark grey/ gunmetal sounds super tasty. Green and purple would be sweet too. I'd take a purple one for my V60 too  8)

Im currently plasti dipping my case white. I realised I am terrible with a spray can.

It's gonna look good with my Granite caps. But I just realised I can change the LEDs to blue and now I want to use it with my new computer :(

Post by: nahka on Tue, 09 September 2014, 05:16:25
Any word on the Cases? Gunmetal grey would be dope, will get some cables to go with it. 

There aren't any rubber feet with the cases, any place I can buy some that aren't too thick?
Title: Re: 60% Case (Aluminium) now LIVE @ Pexon PCs
Post by: ryhanson on Tue, 09 September 2014, 22:36:26
Yeah I would love a low profile gun metal color!

What are the dimensions compared to the stock Poker II case? Wondering if it's a lower overall height.
Title: Re: 60% Case (Aluminium) now LIVE @ Pexon PCs
Post by: pexon on Tue, 07 October 2014, 07:11:38
We will be getting more black cases in stock, as well as CNC ones in silver.

In regards to size, its slightly more lower profile compared to the stock case
