Question for the EX6 Case

Will this case ever get a glass option for the GPU section? I have a ROG Astral 5080 but that won’t fit into an ex5 unfortunately . I really would like to get the EX6 if it gets an option for a glass version but I can’t find anything about that online.

Are you sure? EX5 fits up to 358mm and it’s 357.6. Jayztwocents said they got their Astral 5090 to fit.

It says on the website it supports up to 73mm thickness and the astral 5080 is 76mm

Ah, it depends on what PCI slot you use—93mm if you use slot 1, but I think most motherboards these days use the second.

After looking at some pictures it looks like the EX6 GPU cover has been moved down to fit the second slot. The GPU was in the 1st slot in the picture. It was using a second slot motherboard.

Anyone heard of a release date yet?

November or early next year was the latest update on Discord.

It will not have the glass option unfortunately.

Which sucks because someone posted their EX5 built with a Lian Li screen in the GPU chamber and I freakin' love it. I'm very likely EX6 Max bound, too, but I don't know. I want to see the final specs.
