That's kind've interesting. Although it looks like all they really did is put more fans on the back of a case and turn it on it's back.

The Fortress has a Mac Pro feel to it, with that air inlet at the bottom.

I think it looks good. I'm not so sure about that CPU cooler, but that is easily remedied.

How about a picture of the top of the case? That was one of the main features of the case right?

I like the Raven case kinda sweet but I bet it has a big price..

for sure... I was thinking the same thing.

Is there something that covers my unsightly 34543 connectors now showing on top ?

If you look close at pic 2, you can see that they turned the ports upward, but their not at the top of the case.

I've been modding cases for a while to achieve one directional air flow from buttom to top (2x120mm fans at the buttom, 2x120mm fans at top panel -incliding the PSU fan if top mounted-, sealing every other hole). I wished some company to finally do it, but I didn't imagine rotating the mobo 90 degrees, although it may aid cooling, but cables spurring from the top of the case will look so ugly.

I'm probably going to be hated for sayin this... but that Raven case is orgasmic.. oh my god I want it.

Looks like there will be a top cover that hides the cables and routes them out to the rear of the case.

 

[philpot2005]

Sorry for the double post. This case is very well designed, and the cable management setup is simple but looks awesome! If this case is lighter than my Tt Kandalf case I might have to bite the bullet and buy it if it comes out.

Then we'll probably need very long cables for the mouse, keyboard, monitor and UPS ...

I'm beginning to wonder how many other people reading this article are aware of the Raven case Silverstone introduced a while back. Nothing new here except the CPU cooler and a more simplistic exterior case design. Well OK, so the layout is a little different, but it's got the same principle of rotating the mobo 90°. This probably implements the idea better, though.

I've always wanted to know why cards are upside down....maybe it's time for a complete new design change in Mobos???

 

[armandomtnz]

I Always said that the they should turn the names in the cards!!
Not necesary now
and you can use the pc as a vacuum cleaner too jeje

Sorry armandomtnz, this thread is dead, time to close now =)

It is perfect --- too bad it is probably way out of my price range
