Should be, they're no wider than the radeon in the pics (my real name is Dan

A belated thanks for this review

Been searching this past week for a new case to replace my Antec P150. Found this one and saw that TPU had done a review on it!

Might be tight with two HD 3870 (9") and a second HDD cage, but I think I'll make it work. No other case that I've found does so much in so little space and looks good (in my eyes of course).

Hi

I've registered so i can ask a few questions

I currently have a TT Tsunami Dream, with replaced fans (and 5V) but there are vibrations sometimes that are annoying :P
The test is very good but you're not speaking about the noise...And also, can you tell us a bit more about the patented side-fan? Can it be replaced by any 120mm fan (noctua for example...) ?

and also, do sth like noctua nh-u12p fit in the case ?

Thanks

I have a Lian Li PC-A10B case that uses the same side fan. All the fans can be replaced with any other 120mm fan you like. As for noise, I would rate the Lian Li fans that came with my case on the low end of "medium speed/noise."

thank you for your reply. I wasn't sure if it was a 'special' fan on the side so now i know i can (and would need to!) change them for quieter (Noctua with ULNA seem perfect because you can't hear it)...
