Is it me, or do the Bolts keep getting bigger. Big%20Smile

It's you. LOL

Yeah, I think you're right.  I kinda like it better each time.   I like the window on the left with no inverted mobo.  Fits my decor better.  Big%20Smile

I like watching the Bolt evolve, I can't help but wonder it if will eventually change over to a full-sized tower, with a "Bolt Mini" option that is the same size as the original Bolt. Big%20Smile

If my scribbling is correct.......

Original Bolt.....14 x 15 x 3.6

Bolt 2...............16.4 x 14.1 x 4.4

Bolt 3...............18.3 x 15.1 x 5.8

Give or take.  Big%20Smile

I'm guessing supply chain issues forced them to go create a modified off-the-shelf chassis using the Lian-Li PC-05S. The Bolt II chassis was on back order and we know how it took them a while to handle the back-order on the Velox chassis.'

Supply chains can be literal nightmares to deal with sometimes.

As for the case design, our team worked with them and some of our other partners to design components special for the Bolt 3.

I definitely appreciate that DS has branched out into designing its own cases. Awesome
