Nice review Darksaber.
That case is so nice looking and has lots of potential for cabling.Also is that an ATI R700 I see in the pic.When is the preview coming?

I have the same case. Some quick points to make:

It's a pain to route wires thru the back and get the panel to close properly. I gave up as i nearly broke the damn thing trying to get it to close.

It badly needs a front intake fan. Good thing i had a Scythe Kama Bay around so i could use it.

The interior 120mm fan is useless as you can't mount the video card support bracket with larger tower coolers. There's nothing else to attach it to.

The reset button doesn't work.

Importers don't stock the W-V1010 window for it. It badly needs a window

Other then that, it's a great case and i love it. Here's how mine came out. Sorry for bad quality pics. Click for bigger version.

very nice review DS.

Awesome Case Ar. I would think you could hook that internal fan up somewhere or use it as another intake fan.

Sapphire's Thanks.

WarEagleAU: i could do something ghetto with zip ties but it would just look nasty. The front intake i've added does the job well.
