Tagan Black Pearl case

I am finally about to get a full tower and I was wondering if anyone here has tried using the Tagan A+ Black Pearl. It's a little expensive but seems to be a big hit everywhere I see a review. Thanks for any advice.
 
Just a rebadged Lian Li - costs less than the similar Lian Li but the LL have wheels... I really dislike the inverted ATX layout as it usually creates a real hot pocket for the card area, but I suppose it could be made to work with some clever use of fans. At least this one has the nice audio-style feet instead of the el cheapo, slick plastic ones of the RFFT (I think that was a little trick LL pulled on Best Buy - I'm surprised LL even has such cheap parts in their inventory) .

I know I've been down this path before, but are there any pretty recent good buys in the full tower realm? Thank you zepper.
 
Holy crap thats one sexy case. On my way for a marriage license! J/K......or am I 😀

Zepper, you are one knowledgeable cat! I didn't think of the "hot pocket" syndrome until you said something. Hmm
 
I haven't really been shopping lately and unfortunately I just sold my last RFFT - what's your definition of full tower, Dorken? The Egg has a rebate going on some versions of the Silverstone Kublai KL-03, they have some Gigabyte Aurora 570 (which have been hard to find) and other models. Some models of the Enermax Uber Chakra have free shipping plus a $30. rebate at the Egg.

. re. No negatives in reviews: no one likes to think his/her $300. box may have some flaws much less actually look for them.

I see some RFFTs left on fleaBay. Somebody on one of the techie forums was actually selling them at the ~$50. cost plus shipping. IDK if he has any left or what forum it was - could be XtremeSystems or HardOCP etc...

The 1200 is tall but not all that deep - the Cooler Master original Stacker is about the same size but it can hold an EATX mobo and two PSUs while the 1200 can't. Take a look at the Thermaltake Shark.
