Thanks for the suggestions guys. They all look stunning!
I forgot to mention, I also prefer the minimalist design. I'm looking for a flat and simple design (something like a bento box). So far I like the Tex model.
Just curious though, are there FMJ premiums still available for sale?
If you're into the low profile look then there are basically two options:
1) TEX 60% case
This comes in aluminum (MK.com) and acrylic (Massdrop). You'll have to wait until someone sells their acrylic case on the classifieds since the buy on MassDrop is over. Or perhaps they'll run the buy again?
2) Vortex Pure Case
This case original came with the Limited Edition Pure (more here), but there's a Vortex GB running that Pexon is running and there are some extras.
As for the FMJ cases, until they do another run, the only way to find them is on the classifieds.
Hoper that helps!
Didn't pexon have leftovers from his GB?
Anyway I think they had the same design as the tex ones though they where only 60$
I have a Pure Limited and I really love the case. The edges and finishing could well have been done better (especially considering the cost of the board), but it looks and feels awesome (and is surprisingly heavy, since the bottom is really thick near the back edge). The case pexon is selling is made by Vortex, but differs from the original Pure case in a few areas.
1. The detail and finish look better than the Pure case.
2. The back edge is thicker, the bottom is thinner and the plug hole is nicer. It probably weighs a little less.
3. It doesn't come with rubber feet attached.
The Tex case has a thicker front edge and doesn't have the built in tilt angle of the Vortex cases. In general it looks a little better made, though.
To be honest, I like them all. The Tex acrylic and aluminium, Vortex Pure Limited and newer Vortex cases are all great low profile case options. Best value right now is Pexon's GB for the black Vortex case.
