Clear Cases

Does anyone know if the cooling for clear cases are good, because i am looking into getting one? I was wondering if it was hotter than a aluminum cases?
 
Well if your concern is that 'acrylic' is a insulator of heat rather than a 'conducter' (like stell or aluminum), don't worry. Most of the clear cases on the market have 5 x 80mm Fans. As long as youhave over 15 cfm on each fan spot it should take care of most of your concerns =).

They are pretty nice cases, however my personal opinion is that it is kind of *naked*, need to cover some of it =D

i'm just about get one myself and i had the same concern, some posting and research has lead me to the same conclusion: 5 fans will take care of the heat
 
Too bad they don't make clear faceplates for the drives. That's my only issue at this point because if you have a clear case it would look better with clear drives too.

Well no matter how you look at it, clear faces for drives wouldn't do much, since you would than just see inside of it (or the 'face' behind it). Unless the ENTIRE drive was made clear =), but yeah that'd be too crazy.
