I think I will get this case when I buy the Pentium Anniversary that is coming out. That plus a Noctua air cooler and a 750 Ti would be perfect for LAN's.

It is pretty much available worldwide, as they are shipped either (your choice) directly from Lian-Li in Taiwan (the manufacturer) or by wahaha360 in the US.

Thanks. I will probably use the EVGA 750 Ti for this with the mat black GPU bracket. I could paint it silver or white as well. The new Noctua Industrial fans would look great.

Missed out on the first batch so I've been eagerly awaiting this for a while now.  I don't have a use for it right now but plan on sitting on it until Broadwell comes out.  No telling what might become of this case in the future so I don't want to potentially miss out.

They (wahaha360 and Necere) are still doing this beside their day-time jobs.

But imho the indiegogo campaign went really smooth, many got their cases much earlier than promised and only few a bit later.
