$800 price tag is insane.
It would be nice to have a smaller version for ITX motherboards and a couple of 360 radiators.
Guys it's 1st march not april.
Does this price include the custom cooling supplies, or is that another $900 to buy?
I did not expect EK to have such a good sense of humor.
Who approved the price of this 😅
Probably the amount of aluminium and quality of it + hand built labour time.
For that price i can get Lian Li O11 Dynamic EVO XL with distro-plate and still save some euros for fittings...
This is for people who look down on those basic-mf peasants I guess
I cant find a single reason that justfy the 800 usd price
Its a very good built case
But good luck with the price
Folks with money, who want something different than what every other PC builder has, and are not trying to build a budget PC won't flinch.
@@Methodical2I spent $12K on my last build, and I would have flinched at this. It's overpriced.
@@shaynerism That's you. I wouldn't flinch because it's different and if I want different I will buy. I am sure there's something in that $12k build (say RGB fans) that someone could also say was overpriced because it's not their priority. As a matter of fact, I would say this because I am not a RGB fan fan.
@@Methodical2Sure, I get it. I'm just saying that the value/dollar ratio just isn't there. Perceived value is different though, and is what sells this.
@@shaynerism I understood where you were coming from. No issues here. Just like the 4090, people will buy it and not care about price to performance/value etc. because they want what they perceive is the best. As you are aware perceived value is different for each person. I agree the price is high, especially when compared to the endless customization that Caselab cases offered back in the day, which were considered costly in it's day but many jumped on board because they could get what they wanted in a case. I don't think I would spend that much for a case myself though, but I know people will because when you see their PC build, you won't see thousands others; it will be sort of unique. Kind of like buying a Chevy Taho. You've seen 1, you've seen a million or you've seen 1 Lian Lou case, you've seen thousands.
I was very looking forward to this case because I wanted to get my hand on an 909EK InWin for such a long time but couldn't.
So what I can see so far and what I like about the case:
-The aestehic is insane, very clean and the build quality seems lit
-Modularity (rotating components as you like, prebuilding stuff, sliding them in and so on)
-Not overloaded by RGB and stuff
But the downsides (for me):
-Price. I know for handcrafted and machined products, there will allways be charged a higher price. However if you want to bring a piece of art to the crowd, why would you go for compromises? If you would have machined a case comparable to a 909EK, with like a built in distroplate as motherboard tray or similar stuff and would have charged like 2k+$ I would have bought it. I cannot speak for everyone, but there is something missing here.
-Design stuff. I could not find a front USB here. I know it could have potentially destroyed the aestetic of the case but come on, there is allways a way to hide it and people are still using it
-PSU cord. I only found a notch inside the rear part of the case where you can run your power cable out. Not a big issue, but I would like to get a connection point on the back of my case instead of routing the cable to the back and loosing cable length.
Hope it may be helpfull somehow.
Absolutely fair comments that are helpful. Don't take this is a retort, its just an explanation, but fundamentally the 977EK was built on 909EK feedback. Entry price was too high at $1500, no glass side panels, no dust filters and it can't be un-inverted. And then also to have more than 200 available since the aforementioned things would open it to a wider audience.
It does do all that well, very well, and maintains the 909EK quality of finish. Naturally the distro and cable management were sacrificed from the base case, but we can make those available to have another $2k hyper-case no problem. It also had to get positioned around the Torsion A60 to an extent and with this we tried to cater to the opposite audience who don't want to give up dust filters, power buttons and having giant open holes for cats to fall inside.
Agreed, the lack of a case-mounted PSU cable connector and USB/audio jacks diminishes what is otherwise a great design.
@@JR23DesignYou are telling me that TG, dust filters and a distro cost 700??? Cases that are sub-$100 have tg and dust filters, and most distro plates are $200-$300.
You guys should have just made a case to 909EK standard and lowered the price.
The 977EK isnt even limited edition so it basically is just an overpriced O11 or 303. And if i want this level of build-quality, ill just go buy an Inwin case.
The sliding rail stuff would be cool on a EK-Pro case, but it doesnt matter on this when you still have to take down the entire loop to remove anything.
The Torison A60 confuses me even more, it costs $1,000 more than a comparable singularity computer case, and all three radiators are pushed up against the motherboard so the airflow design is horrendous.
Price again, is that case made out of gold 😅😅 crazy no comments
But who will spend 800Euro on this and not on a more premium, custom, limited edition case that's similarly priced?
Nice case, but simply overpriced. That cost is unjustified for what it is. There's nothing miraculous about the build quality/size/materials/workmanship that make it worth that. A bit of a gamble in the current economic climate as well.
price is ridiculous.
800 euros and the tempered glass panel needs screws? It's 2024, come on.
@EK Water Blocks -I've been contemplating using this case for my next PC build, and the main issue I've come across is the limited provision for vertically mounting the GPU. Even though this case is intended for larger motherboards with multiple PCI lanes, it only offers one for vertical GPU mounting. If I were to use two GPUs with a vertical mount, it simply wouldn't be feasible in this case. It's imperative that the case provides full access to all PCI slots when offering vertical GPU mounting. As it stands, the only way to fully utilize my motherboard in this case is by mounting the GPU horizontally. Furthermore, it appears that this case lacks support for horizontally mounted GPUs.
While I do like this case, at this price point, as much as I want to hit the pre-order button, I can not because I can not compromise on my expectations.
after a couple of hours I came back to check the video again if the price i remembered was right and jesus crhistst ajsdkrsjf
Dang! Do I want this? Dual 420 fan and rad support!
So it comes with a full kit right? Otherwise not many are gonna buy this
For such a pricey case there's a lot of wobbling going on when the top radiator-tray is slid in and hits the back or when the reversed motherboard-tray is slid in and one of the rather thin struts is touched (also weird cut afterwards at 3:55 moving the case, probably a bit unwieldy bc of that).
Can you have push/pull with Performance Radiator??
V3000 plus is $500 and offers more
Can t wait to build inside xD
800€ is too much. What a cash grab. The power button isn't even hidden on the inside of the case.
Would be cool if it was $300
any ideas for MSI MEG Maestro case?🤔
I watched your first show. Interesting concept. thanks.
I'm asking me about the removable parts on rail-fitted mounts : MB and heat exchangers. especially about the vibrations. i'll also go in your website.
Hello there is a BTF CASE VERSION ALSO MADE BY EK Water Blocks Quantum In Win 977EK
The major flaw of the EK cases is that it only supports one type of radiator position, and the previous EK909 had a better radiator arrangement.
On the other hand it shows how other quality aluminum chassis manufacturers like Lian Li squandered their tradition, and are solely interested in competing with the low cost market segment.
I LOVE IT!!!
It's like 200€ more than my Caselabs SMA-8 from back then, damn the inflation is no joke. 😅
Was excited for this but it justbdoesnt look as elegant as the 909ek. No built-in or custom distroplate for this plus no aluminum side panel on the PSU side kills this case for me.
you can't be serious with this pricing
i thought a custom fitted watercooling kit would be included but this is straight up daylight robbery wtf
Fantastic! Imagine a build with two 420 AlphaCool Monsta radiators!!!
The removable motherboard tray reminds me of my Caselab case.
Case seems awesome at a glance. Price is boutique level and then some. $499 USD and you'll triple sales.
Are there any fans on the black one?
When price is $800. this case should be more bigger size and support more rads. But this case looks not worth $800.
The price is obscene..
Should have had triple radiator support to justify that price. Airflow is limited in this as well. Nothing revolutionary about this. All my parts are from EK but this is pretty weak as a case.
come on bro, fix the price
880?????
seriously ek. what is going on with your pricing
goodluck with selling it, maybe its not even EK's intention.can see how his tune change when he mentions the price. Bro Atila was like ' oh jesus, let me just finish the video and go do some other stuffs already '
:D
@@AttilaGobor :D
I love this EK977 so much. By the way . the introduction from Attila is awesome and I looks forward to get this high end PC Case.
I clicked thinking it would have the custom loop already built in or some parts at most... but 800 euros for just a case it's kinda ridicolous.
Not nearly as good as EK’s last collaboration with Inwin the Inwin 909ek. And by the way the Inwin 925 was $499 with much more elegant design than this.
Well the 909 EK was $1500...
@@AttilaGobor As a long time EK product user, I want to be 100% honest. Considering the custom designed radiator bracket, distribution plate and cable management system of 909ek, that $1500 price tag was not bad and it was limited to 200 units. But for this product, I have a hard time thinking of its advantages over Lianli’s cases. I like EK’s design, but recent years the price to performance ratio of EK’s product really starts to let me down.
@@mavericksyao708 I understand where you are getting at, but... unfortunately, a lot of things have changed since February 2020, when the 909EK was launched. :(
The YBD Lithium-E costs the same and makes this look a toy.
And yet another lost touch with reality product from ek in terms of pricing
Just ridiculous
Nice
Bro you just call my 12TB HDD a "legacy drive" 😭
Sowwy :D
❤❤❤🔥
Somehow it’s now 80 bucks more (880)
$900 lmfao, there is nothing special about this case for that price. I can buy 6 Thermaltake View 71's that look as good, have hinged tempered glass, and can accommodate 2x 60mm thick 360 or 420 radiators for that price.
Ouch that prize...
Nice but your average customer is looking at less than $200 for a case. But for people with cash to burn, this is nice.
everything is ok, but for this price there will be no likes from me xd
Never in a million years is this worth that sorry. You just ain’t being realistic. Love the product however max this should be 300.
case for whales
What's the point of this collaboration? $500 max but $900 is an April fools joke. go back home EK and Inwin.
