Wow thing looks like a tank. I have an HAF 932, i wonder if its worth getting this instead?

 

[rpgplayer]

if it's easy to install/upgrade hardware in than that would be one hell of a case, looks damn sexah

Really nice case, my only grip is that they should change the usb 2.0 ports to all usb 3.0 and maybe add a second esata port. other than that its great.

Personally I am not a fan of the current trend of oversized bulging cases ike this. It has nothing to do with the size of them but how ugly they look. I much prefer the sleek, rounded lines of the Silverstone cases so that is where my money would go.

i wouldnt give up my antec 902 for this.

 

[steiner666]

would prefer the front intakes to be 120mm, but not bad overall.

I won a price at the zalman contest, and they never shipped me anything.

 

[bill gates is your daddy]

I have found my next case.

Finally a top mounted HDD. Hope the price on these chassis is not too expensive.

A word to the uninformed, Thermaltake has that feature for the v9 blackX edition for several months now.

I forgot to add that the V9 Black X Edition has a USB 3.0 port too.

The single best improvement companies have added to cases in the last couple of years is the cutout behind the cpu mount on the motherboard. Hopefully Zalman will include this in the new case.

The top-mounted drive bays seem to be a novel idea, but how many people are actually hot-swapping on their home PCs? I would have to say an extreme few are doing so.
