Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
To avoid the 'lost checked baggage' argument, you could always just carry the power brick in your hand. Sounds dumb, but holding it or putting it in a coat/pants pocket (even just temporarily while being weighed) would get around the weight restriction
While I don't disagree with your statement (and don't know what region of the world you live in), the cost is in line with what I've paid for shipping from Europe in the past.
Edit: Total cost to me personally (after VAT is removed) is actually ~20% cheaper than it would cost me to purchase and...
Oh, excellent.
Further to your most recent reply above, do you have any samples of the various colour options coming in? Not full prototype cases, but perhaps some sample sheets of metal for each of the three available case colours?
If a user obtains a top hat for watercooling purposes, there's going to be one of two scenarios occuring:
1) the user will be creating a strong negative pressure scenario by expelling hot air out the roof of the case.
2) the user will draw fresh air in from the top of the case and expel hot...
The lack of communication is quite off putting. Maybe the Inverse team is spread too thin across too many forums/websites...
No doubt the designers are busy atm, but I feel the lack of personnel available to respond to reasonable questions is not a good sign for those who decide to contribute...
I prefer D - I think the design is the cleanest of the five.
If the cost is substantially reduced compared to the original design by having inserts, can some dust filter holders be made on the inside of the case to accommodate some sort of standard sized dust filter too?
Strong edit: also...
Given that the stand ETA is August, would it be better to join the Customised Early Bird package (which also has an ETA of August) rather than only of the July ETA options so that shipping can be bundled together?
To answer one of your questions in the OP, I personally don't think the design is different enough to compete in an increasingly competitive crowdfunded case market.
The design is, as you put it, mostly borrowed from the existing Sentry, which borrowed from a handful of Silverstone cases before...
A 970 mini block wouldn't be the strangest thing to occur in enthusiast cooling. Last year BitsPower made a full cover block for the Strixx GTX 960 - a card which ran at under 60C loaded and overclocked on air.

I really like the Nano S. The only trade off it has is size, which is less trade...
Hiya. My comments on the Pallas perhaps fitting are based off Firewolfy's comments on the L9x65 test fit posted on page 16. I'm wondering if the Pallas might sneak inside thanks to the approximate 2mm of clearance that Firewolfy observed:
With that said, if it doesn't fit, the L9x65 is...
Hi mate,
Do you have any R&D funds left to potentially test fit and benchmark the Raijintek Pallas cooler? It stands at 68mm in height, which puts it at the threshold of CPU cooler clearance. It may end up squeezing into the case and proving to be one of the best cooler options...
Raijintek...
The Intel 600p is less likely to throttle at write speeds since it's quite slow at writes (relative to other NVMe m.2 storage options), but I haven't seen any reviews confirming or denying this.
