wanna see the review? check this out. I'm bit disapointed that Coolermaster is still using 80mm fans allso the front of the new praetorian is not as good as it was simple is beautiful they should a stick with the old front.

und für die von Ihnen, die Deutschland sprechen

This case would be so much better if they'd just give in and have a front/rear 120mm setup. If they want to go whole hog, an 80mm side intake and 80mm blowhole exhaust would be nice too, but yeah, too many 80mms.

I'll keep my Centurion 5 This case has really impressed me for the money - very quiet, and very cool.

i was hoping they'd go with 2 120's as well and the top I/O is not for me. looks pretty nice tho.

i love my praetorian with the nexus fan controller but i might look and see if they sell that new side panel seperately and if its compatible with the old style. haven't checked the dimensions to mine.

also, the article mentions having to buy optical bezels from CM but i found NEC and artec silver models match perfectly.

meh
it's not bad, but i like the current praetorian better

i do like the extra 80mm fan in the back at least if they aren't going to use 120's

Just say "NO" to 80mm........

difference between old and "new" praetorian is so small that it would propably cost too much to change the structure of the case that's why still 80mm i guess..
