NCase M1

[Sashi]

Hey guys, as I promised, here is the my build log of the MCase M1.

 

For those who don't know what the MCase M1 is, it was a crowd-funding m-itx case that did extremely well. 

 

For more information about it: http://www.ncases.com

 

So this is not a new build, but just a build that I transferred everything from my current build to this new case

 

The current build I have

Fractal Design Node 304

Intel Core i7 3770k

Gigabyte H77N-WIFI

Kingston DDR3-1600 2x8GB RAM

Silverstone SFX 450W PSU

Samsung 830 128GB SSD

WD Black Scorpio 750GB HDD

2x Hitachi Travelstar 1TB (2.5") HDD

 

Some pictures

 

it came in soft foam! Linus favourite!

 

Some comparison shots vs a paper towel - it is tiny!

 

 

 

Vs Node 304

 

 

 

 

There is no manual per say so I had to go by pictures on the site as well as just being creative

 

They say a picture is worth a thousand words, well then that means a video is worth a thousand pictures?

 

Some videos that I shot, explaining some stuff and dealing with my frustrations

 

The side panels uses the same sort of design as the Silverstone FT03 Mini but instead of clips on the panel itself, they are little round balls

How much was it ?, i'm guessing you were in the second string of cases they made.

 

looks neat anyway they should make more of them.

I paid $245 USD with S&H

Yea I preordered the second run

Its well worth the price. Build quality is top notch as it is Lian Li made product.

Thanks so much for the videos on it. 

 

Looks like it was challenging to say the least.

It was challenging because there was no guide on what the best way order to build it BUT thats what we do right? We learn and make mistakes and try again
