Well I have the p150 case so I know...my PSU is RMA'in as I write. I was prepared, and in this particular situation, it doesn't matter much, since I have a very good PSU allready, and its not a big problem for me to wait for the RMA to finish. That PSU will serve in my second setup for my girlfriend, who has one allready...so waiting is ok.

thanks for you concern though, I might not have been aware of the p150-issue.

The question remains though, about the Typhoon in that particular case.

Should be OK, I've got a Typhoon in my P180 and it's fine.

Well, here's the thing...regardless of the P150 PSU issues, it's a true mid-tower case. I don't know if it'll fit that cooler or not. It has extremely similar dimensions to the Zalman 9500.

So I'll tell you tomorrow around 4pm PST if it's going to fit or not. Got a new P150 and 9500 sitting in the corner of my dining room BEGGING me to set them up.

I have a BigTyphoon in a Coolermaster Centurion. It fits just fine and it's not a big case at all.

Yup, the 9500 fits with no problems. Shouldn't be a problem with the Big Typhoon.

Thread to come with first impressions and pics after I get all the pics together.

And, no problems (knock on wood) with the Neo 430 so far.

Nice...Looking forward to pics...
About the PSU -> did you happen to write down its serial prior to install?

Nope, but I can lean down and look...

S05100031091

One note: as with some others, the warranty sticker was pre-ripped. Kind of scary if I ever need to RMA it, hopefully I won't have to.
