[citation][nom]Crashman[/nom]The NZXT is tiny...and both Cooler Master and Thermaltake let you shut off the lights from the fan controller. IMO the big cases are too big, the small cases are too small, and if you're right about the looks than I guess you're not in their target market.[/citation]
NZXT is tiny maybe for a full ATX case. anyway bottom mouted PSU = fail. why place a heater where it has the most effect ? you need a front bottom fan for cool air intake = check. then either force it front to back or bottom to top, combined does not work well (you are exhausting more than the intake can deliver). anyway ... drive bays : 4x5.25" at most ... 2-3 for a raid enclosure, 1 for optical, 1 spare for lcd panel/fan cotroller, whatever. 1-2 3.5" for card reader. don't need more. at most one internal 3.5". disk belong into the raid enclosure (best would be to have these 2-3 at the bottom, optical drive on top, intake fan in the middle with one intake fan at the bottom just below the raid enclosure). bottom intake feeds GPU+disk enclosure, middle intake feeds CPU/memory. I can tolerate a bottom mounted PSU in a mATX case at most.
