http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16811146043 - black with blue LEDs
http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16811146046 - silver with blue LEDs
http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16811146044 - black with red LEDs (full price, just for comparison - I think this one looks the best)

Pros:
- Aluminum construction, brushed textured door (with lock), very sturdy
- Fits a tower heatsink (at least 92mm versions, possibly 120mm too)
- Fits FIVE 120mm fans (competing cases may have one or two, and some only have 60 or 80mm)
- Fits FIVE 3.5" hard drives
- Fits two 5.25" optical drives
- Has holes for mATX motherboards, but some users have reported being able to drill holes and fit a full ATX motherboard
- Fits regular ATX PSUs
- Removable motherboard tray
- Removable top cover and sides for easy installation / maintenance
- Top window (though rather small)
- Comes with a carrying strap

Cons:
- 20lbs EMPTY, much heavier than other SFF cases (it's a trade-off for size and sturdiness, though)
- Some screws were overtightened and stripped out when I tried to loosen them (I was able to get them out and replace them finally, but it was a PITA)
- You have to remove the PSU to remove any expansion cards, like your graphics card
- Motherboard tray won't slide out with a tall heatsink mounted
- Foam case "feet" peeled off after a few months
- NZXT didn't email me back when I contacted them about replacement foam feet

Overall, I LOVE this case. If I was in the market for it, I'd buy another one in a heartbeat.

Shipping is pretty high but is still a pretty darn good deal. This is what my home server is housed in and I absolutely love it. Tons of room and with all the 120mm fans it stays nice and cool with pretty much no noise. Highly recommended.

I kinda wish I waited for this one before I bought my TT Lanbox Lite a couple months back.
