anyone here knows what casing is Aftershock using for the impulse v2 ?

i'm currently on the corsair 380T, looking for something less "fat" , so far shortlisted the node 202 and the Taku (not sure if it will even arrive here)

Impulse v2 is h4 hammertech. Ever emailed them before, they asked me to purchase from aftershock, aftershock can sell you for $199.

But I thought you can buy extra pieces of acrylic side panel from thermaltake?

Yes, but the thing is Thermaltake side panel cost USD19.90/pc + shipping, mostly no stock and very difficult to find.

Now we do some calculations. $19.90+$25(roughly shipping, for my record US direct to SG is never less than $25) so is total $44.90 x rate1.35 =S$60.

So if u buy your case from Carousell black color also just S$60, no point to get extra side panel.

I bought two pieces 3mm acrylic sheet 24cm x 26cm cost S$7.50/pc, then drill 4 holes myself is free (u can direct order your acrylic sheet with hole cost S$9.60/pc), go to daiso buy small magnet 8pcs cost S$2.00. Total I spend S$17.00 for my two side panel, S$60 I can change 3 times with different color acrylic sheet =:p

thanks for the recommendation, somehow just not my cup of tea haha

targeting for a mini refresh of my itx rig Q1 next year - most prob settling for the node202 and bumping my ram to 16GB.

Headache now is the gfx - the r9 nano is slowly showing signs of ageing for 1440p ultra all candies enabled settings. But the current AMD vegas don’t seem very good for their pricepoints and power consumption seems a tad high as well. Hopefully there is an early refresh next year. (I am a big AMD fan so no green camp for me 🤣)



What about Silverstone ML series?
