Just want to know your thoughts on it, and if you had any pictures you could post showing how you've got yours setup.

And maybe a few questions answered...

Do you find the cooling sufficent at stock? (I.e. No need to add additional fans)
Do the harddrives have any antivibrational mech?
Is the case silent?
Whats the build quality like?
Found any problems with it?
 
I got one over the TJ10 as I didn't like the door.

1) No. I run 5 Sythe fans instead of the stock which were useless.
2) There are some rubber pads on the drive cages which work ok.
3) Depends what fans you use. I can hear my 4870X2 humming away. I have also put padding on the doors to stop any vibrations.
4) Top bannana, better than my Antec P190.
5) Nope, I am really pleased with this case and would buy it again. Looks ace too.
 
Thanks for the reply, much appreciated.

Was thinking of changing the fans for the Xilence Red Wings. Think they should be alright. Loudest thing in my case at the moment is my 4850, but I was thinking of getting a S1 for that. Would like good antivibration for the harddrives as having 4 in my Antec 900 causes a fair bit of vibration.

Could you do me a really big favour and measure the distance between the motherboard and the case where the tray comes out, as I would like to know how much clearance for the cooler I'd have, considering I have a Thermalright Ultra it's no small cooler.

Also do you have any pics you could post of your setup?
 
Pulse>I can save you the trouble I run the thermalright ultra in my t-09.

The stock cooling is adequate but not quiet. I suggest you change the mid level fan which is placed in front of the graphics card for a quieter fan though.

While the case might be better in some regards I still thought the Antec p180 and Silverstone Kubai 02 case I owned
was quieter than the t-09.

I could not live with the rattling from my TJ09 and got rid of it. The side panels are too thin for the size and resonate.
 
Hmmm, just one of those things then I suppose as my TJ09 doesn't rattle. I've had various PCs over the last 16 years (got my 1st PC when I was 13) and can say the TJ09 is the best one so far. But then I have had to spend money on the Scythe S-Flex fans and some padding which cost an extra £70-odd on top of the case. Plus then the fan controller etc...
