I bought one in November. It was my first build, which I posted about in the thread of a review of it located here:

You can find other reviews about it on the Antec 1050B manaufacturer's site.

I am very happy with it: cool, quiet, handsome.

I removed the front door because it is only useful if you need to lock access to the front.

The side tunnel is only useful for Intel-based motherboards, AMD-based MB's are out of position. I removed the side tunnel.

The PSU has two fans; mine runs so cool the second one has never come on. The stock 120mm fan in the rear has three speeds which are set manually with a switch. I'd like to suggest you assemble the rig without any other case fans, and see how you can control heat with the stock adjustable rear fan, first.

I love it; after all, I built it.
