Best case on the market, hands down.

- Strengths:
- - Room for ANY setup - Built for water cooling - Easily swappable HDD/SSD trays - Dust collector - Extremely quiet - Nearly no tools required. - One button side panel opening - Sleek looks!
- Weaknesses:
- - "Desk weakness" - My desk sits awkwardly in my room, so the case needs to overhang the desk a bit. Unfortunately, 4 of the 6 feet are right on the ends of the case preventing it from overhanging. I cut a piece of wood, mounted it to my desk, ??????, profit. - Price (not saying it isn't worth it, but it is pricey)
- Summary:
- Went from a Thermaltake super armor full tower to this. I couldn't believe it was actually bigger. Smartest design in a case I've seen yet. I have 3 cats, so the dust filter was a necessity, and it's not a cheap antec design where tons of crap still gets in the unfiltered holes. There is ONLY one place for air to come in, and it's filtered.
Overrated tin can

- Strengths:
- -Built for water cooling. it's a bit to big for proper air cooling unless you spend more money for extra and better fans and a bit of modding
-Large rear motherboard holes and good amount of cable holes.
-Lots of room to work inside, 4x hot swap SATA 2 only, note you still have to mount drives on a sled or runner. - Weaknesses:
- -Cheap plastic doors covering front panel and SATA2 front bay. USB cables hanging over little doors looks un-thoughtout and will break t
-Useless cheap loosing fitting plastic shrouds inside are not helpful.
-Included fans are average quality. Case is loud and rattly hollow feeling and loose fitting side panels. Side panels can stick and not fit properly.
-Only 7 expansion slots for a case this large is odd won't fit some larger EATX and XL-ATX boards.
-Poor to below average HDD cooling bays. - Summary:
- This case is meant for water cooling. As in real water cooling where you need lots of space, not those cheap sealed all in one CPU water cooling units. The case is slightly above average but really over priced for what you get. Unknown who the OEM is yet maybe Cooler Master or Silverstone.
Highly Recommended Professional Looking Case

- Strengths:
- -Lots of space
-Hot swappable drives
-Great Cable Management
-Easy to upgrade - Weaknesses:
- Not really a weakness but I can imagine it being a pain to transport this case if you're moving.
- Summary:
- This case had everything I wanted. I'm not a fan of the fancy LED's, I'm more concerned with the quality and easy management this case gives me.
I highly recommended this case to anyone especially one who upgrades their hardware every few months!
Just amazing!!!

- Strengths:
- This case is the epitome of enthusiast cases. So much room to work with, super easy cable management, tool-less optical bays, 140mm intake and exhaust fans. Hot swap bays make installing a hard drive a snap. SSD support for the hot swap bays. Beautiful powder-coat black and aluminum finish. plenty of opportunity for water-cooling. room for 360mm radiators. plenty of room for radiator AND 25mm fans above the motherboard. Quieter than my old zalman GS1000.
- Weaknesses:
- There are a couple of things I would change. 1 being room behind the motherboard tray. if they took an inch from in front of the motherboard tray and put it behind the tray (even half an inch) it would provide so much more room for cable routing. The hot-swap bays are not tool-less, would be nice if they were. And price. I know this is a very nice case, but the price is really up there.
- Summary:
- I do love this case. it fits my water cooling with ease, there is about 4 inches of room past my ATI 5850, all of the cables are neatly hidden, it looks gorgeous. I have not tried air cooling my CPU in this case, but according to my 5850 temps, its better than my zalman gs1000. For people with all AIr cooling, I would suggest going for something like the HAF X or the Corsair Graphite 600T. but for water-cooling, this is awesome!
Awesome Case

- Strengths:
- - Air Filter @ bottom air entrance eliminating some dust.
- Spectacular cable management.
- Airflow is exceptional, especially with so much space and no cables in the way.
- The easy swapping hard drive docks are awesome. - Weaknesses:
- Yes weaknesses, if you aren't that strong you should probably get a friend to help you get it into position and whatnot. It's fairly overwhelming at first.
- Summary:
- I thought my roommates mac pro was big, this thing dwarfs it. It's incredibly easy to install absolutely anything in this beast. This is worth every penny of the $310 price, sure it's a lot, but I absolutely guarantee you won't need to find a new case any time in the next 5++ years (I would say more but god only knows how much computers will change in that time). I placed mine on the left side of my desk, and I'll never have to move it again as it's really easy to install parts while it stands.
Amazing Case

heavy pig

- Strengths:
- Amazing cable management, if you want to own a case that all others will be reviewed against... this is the new standard. Fans are compartmentalized to keep them doing only one task. Sound is awesome, Flat black is sweet, the hotswap bays are very well designed with their own fan
- Weaknesses:
- The cable they included with the hot swap bay is a little short, it barely reached. Heavy, so be prepared. And if you drive a civic, borrow a bigger vehicle when going to buy this case.
- Summary:
- this is seriously the best case i have ever seen. it looks empty when you are done, and i mean empty even loaded up.
Great Case

- Strengths:
- Very good Cable Management system.
Large enough for any system setup - Weaknesses:
- Heavy
- Summary:
- I have never been very good or patient with cable management. This case makes me look like a profesional. Once I was done with the installation I thought I was missing something because the case is so large. I hope Corsair has a mini fridge hardward addon so I can use the rest of the space. :)
Amazing
1/4/2010 9:18:36 AMRichard D from Edmonton writes:
- Strengths:
- Huge, and lots of space for any setup. IF you want a case with good cable management, this is the best. Also if you are water cooling this is built for it a triple rad fits beautifully at the top with 3 fans on it. Hotswap SATA drives built-in and pull out the front, up too 4 of them.
- Weaknesses:
- Case is heavy, but really it was expected.
- Summary:
- This case was actually brought in for me and they had to meet a minimum quatity to do that. It you need a spacious case for a water cooling setup look no further this is by far the best case i have ever used.
