Makes me cry a little bit inside knowing that only 10 people will own that PC version..

Haha, do check out our PC only design coming late March, with several layouts (including compact 660) if you cannot get a hold of one of the slots here.

Update: GB timing has changed.
Because many ppl are confusing about the previous solution. I have discussed with many users in my discord server, and here is the new solution: GB will be 2 different timing, same day(9th March)but 1 hour difference. First one will be PC/brass version, second one will be alum version). I will announce the PC/Brass winner few minutes after PC/Brass GB has finished, so all the participants will know whether you get in or out. Good Luck for everyone!

9th March 8am EST /9PM SGT for PC/Brass Kits.
PC/Brass GB link:(TBD)

9th March 9AM EST/10PM SGT for Alum Kits.(one hour after than PC/Brass GB)
Alum GB link:(TBD)

Well, I guess I'm going to be setting an alarm to get up even earlier.

Looking forward to the GB! Hope I get at least one board.

hmmm this is the best solution I had so far. It may take buyer 1 hour plus timing to focus on GB, from 9pm -10pm SGT/ 8am - 9am EST. I think it’s totally fair:)

Is the PCB a custom by Clueboard or the same/similar to the one sold on their site? It would be nice to know if something happens down the road and I needed a new PCB, it would be more readily available than waiting for an R2 or being SOL.
hi, this is a good question and let me explain:
The Volcano PCB is customized by clueboard team, we did some adjustments for USB port, added 3 led slots and etc. But I have talked with skully from clueboard. They will change their 660 PCB design to V660's type in the future. (Confirmed with skully few mins ago)

Will extra PCBs and/or plates be available during the GB as extras? And if so, how much?
Yes it has the extra PCB option during the GB.

I shouldn't have wasted time looking at what all the different coatings were. I guess I have more time to research until the next round.

I actually did not use any script. Just refreshed the page until it went live and answered as quickly as possible.

The form for the alu case opens in 37 mins, so you still have a chance to get in.

Yep! Trying to find out what the default UV coating is vs copper coating vs PVD. Copper would be cool but don't know much about how it holds up.

Now is the perfect opportunity to tell us what switch you were using to gain that advantage, so we can all buy a boat load of them from you.  Congrats again, Mike.   :cool:

Silver is chrome plating on the left
Brass is raw + polished on the bottom
Copper electroplating is the last one on the right top.

Thanks for the visual! Does the copper have a coating on it to keep it from dulling? Also, what is the UV anti-tarnish coating on the default brass?

Maybe the form was fine, but all slots were taken before you finished yours? I completed it just fine.
