Any Low-Profile Aluminum Cases That Can Fit Poker II?
« on: Tue, 16 July 2013, 00:46:21 »
Are there any low profile alu cases that can fit the poker II? The LE Pure alu case isn't compatible with the pcb of the poker ii, so I was wondering if there were any in existence. There are alu/metal case groupbuys that can fit a poker ii, but none are low profile.

PURE metal case is the only one that's low profile. Why is it not compatible? I'll have to check my poker II and pure metal case, but I don't see any reason for it not to fit.

There was another thread where the op said that it didn't fit due to the poker ii's pcb.

It wasn't the pcb but rather the position of the spacebar stabilizers that make it difficult to fit the poker2 in the pure metal case. The tabs that hold the wire protrude out making it hard to slide the pcb/plate into the case.

Thanks for the clarification. I really like the look of the low profile case + higher profile caps; hopefully someone finds a way to make it work.

Out of curiosity, has anyone gotten the poker ii to fit in a alu pure case? Is there a mod that will make it fit?
