EDIT: REVIEW ADDED

Good design, nice ideas, pretty well implemented, but still ugly as hell.

Wow!

If it didn't have those crap wavy doors on the I'd really like it.

But props to TT for making an almost good case!

Looks like a typical TT design. I have a TT case and hate it. My next case will be an inch or two longer so I don't have to take out my video card to reach my hard drives. Look carefully - there is exactly no room where the card will be and the HD. Also look where the PS will be - you have no room to change your PS without taking out your motherboard. Every time I move the case I have to check if my video card is still seated as the slotless design is not well executed.

I made a mistake.

That's not a REview...it's more like a PREview.

Looks like the stock system isn't too good for OCers, probably would be a good mounting point for a dangerden based system though.

how is this like an old Tt case for instance you can move the haddrive craddle up and down the whole front of the case so it wont be right behinde expansion cards

what would be hindering you from getting the PS out as the case is freaking 2.2ft long 1.2ft wide and 2.2ft high where your normal antec/cheiftech is only 8inches wide and even an aria is 10.5 inchs wide

Hmm subtle. I don't get it.

Meh, love my XaserIII. Does what it's supposed to- keeps the inside of the case cool.
