A 3000b with black drives looks pretty darn good. Superior cooling and design and inexpensive, $46 shipped from Amazon. The side duct works very well with my Abit IC7, but it may be an issue for motherboards with CPU sockets near the center of the board as the duct is rigid, can't be moved, and won't line up with the center of the CPU HSF. If the duct was moveable, I think this case would be practically perfect and can't think of one that would have better cooling perfromance. It is working out very well for me, but the duct could become an issue down the road depending on socket location....
