Just choosing a case for new build, can't decide which one to go for tempted by the P80N as it has direct air flow from 140's but the optical drive bay is obscurred and it means you have to pop the door everytime you want to use it. Z70 has great access in that respect and it has hot swap drives my only caution with it is the side cooling through the drive bay, I have read the review on http://www.kitguru.net/tag/pc-z70-case-review/ and they reckon it runs fine on air. Anyone out there got some opinions or even better has bought a Z70 and can share their experience?
 
Better off getting Lian Li PC-A70FB over those two imo they are very overpriced.Personally I'd be looking at other cases if I were air cooling like the silverstone ft02 or even haf x if you can stomach the looks there's just better performance value and looks to be had over top end stupidly overpriced lian li's.Most people consider this to be the best air cooling case overall on the market in terms of the performance and looks http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-067-SV&groupid=701&catid=7&subcat=1092

Gotta agree with C64, i have a Lian Li A70FB, cooling in it is very good. And it's certainly a lot cheaper than the P80N, lot better looking as well. The FT02 is very highly regarded for it's cooling ability as well, depends if you like the unconventional layout, (personally i think it looks great). Quality is on a par with Lian Li as well.

Thanks for the advice but I really want USB 3 and the ability to have more than 1 x 2.5 SSD also to be honest I don't like the window and well even though its a few more quid I just love the looks of Lian Li..Cheers
 
you can get windowless versions and usb 3 isn't needed there will be cheap adapters and all sorts when anyone actually needs usb 3 and pretty sure it's not limited to 1x solid state drive.I'd just get the cheaper lian li.
