So Fractal just released a new series of cases called Focus. They have two models Focus G and focus G mini.

 

The mini is: (WxHxD) 195x370x450 mm

änd the regular is: (WxHxD)  205x431x450 mm

What do you people think about them?

I made a post on this over in the news section.

 

It's design is nice looking in my opinion. It's interesting without being over the top.

 

But it makes some serious compromises as a case like the riveted 5.25" Bay. No rubber cable grommets and only one usb 3.0 on the IO.  Also the venting on the top looks super akward.

 

Cable management seems fine but it could use a cover for the area after the motherboard. And the drive placement behind the power supply is interesting. 

 

On the bright side it comes with nice fans is reasonably priced and confess in colors. Newegg says it's too be released June 2nd.

 

If I get the mini, as I am debating, I would be modding it substantially; adding a PSU cover, a covering for the region after the Mobo, glass side panel, rubber grommets, removing the 5.25" Bay and doing a complete reworking of the top of the case and the front venting. Plus all the necessary paint jobs that go with something like that.
