That means you can complete your group buy order early now–we just sent out an email notification, but the link to complete your order (and a discount code in case you need to manually add the discount to your cart) is also on the group buy…Read More

Yup–figured it would be better to release the Evolution update before people start getting those instruments in the group buy sale.

Nice build! I’ve used some BeQuiet cases/fans before and really like their stuff.
