Where as in... the direct factory? Or are you talking about "Made in China" / "Made in Taiwan"?

Yea, something like a "Made in ___" label.

I actually have no idea. My gut says Taiwan but I have no real basis or source for that. Could be India for all I know.

I can take a look-see at my Phanteks cases when I get home, any idea where they'd print that?

Not sure. It could be stamped somewhere on the metal but I'm not even sure if they do that. Might just be a really small white sticker somewhere on the exterior of the case too. 

 

I'm pretty sure CoolerMasters's factory is in China but thats only because of the Gamers Nexus/BPS Customs Tour. I think that includes cases, but this mostly covered cooler stuff.

 

NZXT's factory is also in china.

Lian Li's case manufacturing is in Taiwan

“Made in” has little meaning anymore.  Companies shift that as much as possible in order to play tax games.  There was a period a few years ago where “made in Ireland” conferred tax benefits so companies were making, for example, televisions and putting on everything but the buttons which made the almost entirely assembled device “unfinished parts” shipping the mess including the buttons to Ireland, sticking the buttons on, and creating a device that was “made in Ireland” even though it really basically wasn’t.

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.

thanks for the clarification. I really need to know where this product is being made for future reference. Considering the state of affairs in China, I'm worried that not only will the p400A not go on sale any time soon, it might go up in price so I'm wondering if the price it is at now is the best we'll see for a while. Obviously if it isn't made in China, that might change my decision.

Ah.  Enough cases are made in China that supply/demand could be affected so the entire market could go up.  China’s problems seem to be winding down though while the rest of the world seems to be just getting started.

All DIY PC cases, except for Lian Li, are made in China.

 

Sorry I couldn't come in sooner to clear this up.
