asaka omega case - where they gone?

I've had the Mirage, the older brother to the Omega, a couple of years now. They have gone through a couple of revisions, but there's not that much difference. The cooling in them isn't really strong enough for today's hardware and case designs have really just moved on. You can't beat their depth though, and they can be great for water cooling.
Ironically I've just brought a new case, and my Asaka is going to probably end up being scrapped, as I've got various holes drilled in the top so couldn't really sell it.

I7 c0 at 3.8, 3tb of harddisks and it's all purring away with 5v fans completely silent. It is more than capable of handling todays hardware. As to panel vibrations that was solved with small **** of blutack on the sides. I can't think of another case I'd rather use without having to spend twice as much.
Similar sentiment here, can't see any case I'd want to move to. The limitation seems to be using multiple small radiators instead of one massive one (I've got two 120s, one 240 and am considering a third 120), but beyond that it holds everything I could ask it to. No vibration issues since mass loading the side panels.
yeah ive not got water cooling in mine just a load of low rpm 120mm fans, maybe i should go water cooled as it seems to be the case for it?
I still think its one of the nicest cases about
air flow seems good tho and i dont have any rattle problems? my main gripe is the bent mobo tray is a nightmare at times

Ive always found the cooling in the eclipse to be pretty good, i never had any issues with the panels vibrating, mobo tray yes, but that was cured with a piece of stiff paper in the top guide rail it slides on. Ive always loved the slide out mobo tray, so handy for assembly outside the case, you can even slide the tray back in with a large cooler, such as a TRUE attached. Im on my third build in a 62, actually have 2 rigs housed in them now. The only reason i can see me changing it is if i decide to go custom water cooling with a 120.3 rad, then ill be looking at a tj07 or corsair 800d.
