Looks pretty sweet. I've always thought a full-mesh case could be excellent (if done right), but I'm concerned about its structural stability. It's small enough to look to be portable, but if it gets bent out of shape in transit, then what good is the case?
Will wait for a review before coming to a conclusion though.
Oh, and yeah, the expanding/contracting nature might be OK for some kind of waterloop builds, but yeah, the vast majority of users won't use this feature. May have just been better off as a fixed minimum size case.
Yeah, that's kind of weird. Proof of concept, I suppose.
Although, this sort of tech could find a niche in the mITX space. The size range of ITX cases is pretty wide, ranging from tiny ones that require a SFX PSU and don't support a GPU at all, to large cases that handle full ATX PSUs and can deal with three slot deep GPUs. Buying one case and adjusting it to what you where putting in a particular ITX build might be worth it.
Depending on the price and build quality I could see myself being in the market for something like this.
I really want to build a compact gaming machine, both for easier LAN travel and just to slightly declutter my computer room, but at the same time I'm always concerned about wanting to expand in the future.
This would allow me to shut up that voice that's always saying "but what if I need more expansion?"
I have a different take on this. What I wonder is the cost difference between having a single line that can cater to both mATX and ATX builds versus having separate ones, especially for smaller volume mATX in the DIY market.
At the same time you can market the dual size feature to the buyers as well.

Wow, this case takes Mesh and then turns it up to 11.Mr Perfect - Monday, January 7, 2019 - link

Sounds to me like the top guy had a bright idea no one dared to challenge him on.limitedaccess - Tuesday, January 8, 2019 - link
