I like it.

I really like that case, the one thing that ruins it for me is the layout of the front I/O panel - it just looks like they couldn't be bothered trying to make it neat and just slappped them on in any order. It's a shame, but not necessarily a deal breaker

I like it, just not the bevelled bit

I like it, nice and simple although a windowed side panel wouldnt go a miss as an option

Im not sure if the video is allowed?

shamzzz · 3 Oct 2011 at 23:28

looks really nice, but yeah the lack of a normal window is a shame

Nice case but I still like the 600T better

I like the dedicated h100 space, i was toying with the 650d or raven 3, but this is now my choice vs a raven 3!

the Raven 3 would probably be better for air cooling with the 2 turbo penetrator fans but if you plan on using a H100 it wouldn't really matter I guess.

In that video he mentioned at the top it was only 120mm fans iirc, but I thought it accommodated 140s?

The Cosair webpage says 6x 120/140 fans. if you look close you can see what looks like holes just past the rubber grommets they could be the screw holes for the 140 mm fan ?

Yeah that's what I thought

prob just an oversight on the reviewers part. Not a massive issue granted, but nice to have quieter 140mm fans in the roof if needed.
