Just wondering what if anyone has used one before. Only 1 or 2 reviews that I could find on the net, and they are a little conflicting (specs are a little different in the reviews, one says 4 fans, the other 5 fans, etc.)... It looks like a decent case, but I just wanted to hear some first hand experience with it, especially about multiple hard drives as well as supporting full sized PCI/AGP boards.

I have the windowless version of a Black Kingwin case and it has 6 fans which keeps it very cool. I picked it up at newegg for about $140 and its beautiful case. The thumbscrews on it make opening up the case so easy. If i want to check somethign i can be inside in about 5 seconds without tools. I would highly recoment this case for both its looks and awsome functionality and at decent price. It doesnt have one of those annoying bay doors that serve no purpose either.

Heres a link to an article about one, its silver but I think the black one looks beter but whatever floats your boat
here


More than decent case, its top of the line

I have the blue, 3 window, 5 fan version. the case is beautiful and very quiet considering there are 5 fans, 2 intake, 2 exhaust and 1 tri-led blowhole. the hard drive bay works well since it places the drives directly behind the intake fans, so it keeps your drives cool. the hard drive bay can hold up to 5 drives, i currently have 4 hooked up there and the drives still keep cool. I have a fifth hard drive but decided to mount it in a 3.5" bay just to allow more airflow. Plus the case is aluminum, so mine is usually cold to the touch :) hope that helps... if you have any more questions just ask.
