    Verson 5 Change log:
    M1 V5:
    Front USB 3.0 ports cleaner look (removed port edges flanges)
    Motherboard tray is now fastened with screws instead of rivets to facilitate replacement or modding
    Later batches only:
    Front USB 3.0 ports color changed from blue to black
    Removed #6-32 screws for PSU mounting (some users were incorrectly using them in M3-threaded holes, stripping the threads)
    Re-added for later batches, now in a separate labeled bag
    M1 V4:
    Fan bracket changed to steel and magnetic filter is now included
    Fan bracket mounts changed to allow 2mm of additional travel (allows 140mm fan w/120mm mounting holes to be used alongside a 120mm fan)
    M1 V3:
    Braces added to bottom corners of chassis for increased rigidity/decreased probability of wobbling
    0.3mm decrease in side and front panel height
    Extra QC for wobbling & panel uniformity
    SFX bracket raised 2mm and flange trimmed for better SFX-L support (CAUTION: SFX-L is still a very tight fit with long GPUs, even with the revised bracket)
    Additional motherboard standoffs added for compact mATX boards (226x173mm max w/SFX bracket; see thread and google docs spreadsheet)
    Slightly increased CPU cutout size
    M1 V2:
    Enlarged CPU cutout upward on motherboard tray
    Additional cutouts at bottom of motherboard tray
    Move rear 92mm fan and tubing holes down 2mm
    Additional 3.5" HDD mounting location at forward bottom of chassis
    Cable tie holes on chassis bottom reduced from 10 to 5
    SSD stacking brackets modified to allow stacked 7mm thick SDDs closer
    ATX PSU bracket moved back to allow more clearance behind chassis front
    3.5" HDD cage fixed to work in upper fan bracket position
    ODD bracket screw holes reduced for better M2 screw fit
    No top panel screw
    More SSD mounting screws
    Extra side panel clips
    Dome head M5 screws changed to flat head M5
    Shortened internal AC cable, changed to left angle
    Threaded inserts at side bracket mounting points
    Sub-millimeter increases to exterior panel dimensions to mitigate panel warping
    Feet color changed to black for silver cases
