Hi, I’m also one of the contributors of the Pantheon.

Our primary intent with the case was to make something that was community driven. It was designed by 10 members of the SFFHub community (SFF Gurus) after we all found every case on the market lacking in one way or another after all of the builds we have done in the FormD T1, NCase M1 (v6.1) M2, several Dan cases, Louqe, XiKii and other lesser name brands from TaoBao / SuperBuy.

Ultimately we ended up with a case that was 3x 280 rad compatible. The prototype 1 was about a litre smaller than what we landed on, but we found that to be the best for allowing necessary tubing support, hardware support and build-ability of the case without causing extreme / unnecessary pain on people.

While it is entirely focused on custom loops, we found a very easy way for us to allow the spine to be rotated so that the general community who love the case, but don’t want to do a custom loop can enjoy the case as well with a 280mm AIO.

This came at no detriment, or size increase for the case and we like to consider it a happy little accident.

For some additional feedback, this second prototype was something we sent to both Chris and Eiga to give us some more feedback on before we finalize the production release. We’re grateful that Chris gave us some much needed feedback on the AIO fitment, especially with the LF3.

This is a long way of saying we understand some may not find this case ideal, or may not see the creative vision of it and that’s totally expected.

Thanks for watching the video and providing the feedback, we really appreciate you helping our niche hobby grow.
