This is the first case I've seen the bottom intake vent, which leads to the question...Why isn't the entire bottom of the case constructed of perforated or similar material to allow cold air in?

Regards,

First for me as well. Ive always like NZXT Lexa cases as its Ibuypowers premiere line that uses these cases. I may prefer others but if this was my only option, I sure wouldnt bitch. <G>

That is the sexiest case I've ever seen... (red model) and I thought the original LEXA looked nice.

other than chieftec doing the slide system 1st (copycatism right there) it looks like a nice case and another good review

I just bought this case today. I got it to replace my aging X-Sonic Viper. Haven't installed the components yet, but i have a lot more red lights i'd like to install!
