This is supposed to be a Super tower case from Xigmatek and a IC for the same already posted by mediahome.in

I am intrigued by the fact that with the case barely two months from release, there is not even a single reference to it anywhere on the internet.

Judging from the specs posted by mediahome.in, this is one massive case at (W) 9" x (H) 24.3" x (D) 26.1" and with support for motherboard formats from ITX all the way to HPTX, this case will triumph every other full tower/super tower in terms of internal space. Also, from the looks of it, it would be ideal for both Air cooling (with up to 14 fans) and water cooling setups with internal mountable radiator.

This case has potential to kill HAF X and so many other cases. I am really surprised that there is absolutely no buzz around this on the internet.
 
Does that mean that Xigmatek is having a very quiet launch for this case? Most good cases get revealed to the public months before actual release. btw do you have any info on the weight of this case?
 
EDIT:

Sorry, Nemesis already posted the video.

Anyways, looking at how HUUUGEEE this case is, I'll have to re-consider about considering this as my next case. :P

The main difference in size from other full towers is in the depth of the case. Height wise, it is not too different from most large tower cases, The depth however is what enables this case to dwarf every thing that is put into it. Even EVGA's HPTX board in case looks like what a normal ATX mobo looks like in any other full tower case. The huge space is in fact perfect for me. While I don't really have a HPTX or even an XL-ATX board, the space and features would allow for easy and clean cable management and also help in rigging extra cooling for key areas. The HDD and 5.25 inch space is also perfect for me. The relocatable Fan header bridge is also a very nice feature to have.

The only issue I see is that I would probably require a 8 Pin EATX extension cable if I put the PSU at the bottom of the case not to mention the earful I am going to get from my mom for buying such a huge case. :P
 
^ True. The depth is what is my problem. I cannot put the case of the floor and my table isn't long enough to set this up properly. Not to mention, if I was to buy this case... even I would have to prepare for the earful of stuff. :P
