Hi guys, i'm after a case which has covers for the optical drive bays, which the disk tray pushes out the way when it opens. I like how cases like this look nice and sleek when the tray is shut. Can you guys recommend me some suitable cases? Thanks in advance :)
 
Does that have covers which push out with the optical drive trays without modding?

thinking about it, i doubt they do the upside down video tape drive type movement, i think the front bits just stick on the front of the DVD drive. not sure if this is what the OP wants, but it looks like its what the raven does
 
The OcUK Avenger looks promising... what's the build quality, cooling, noise etc like? And what length graphics cards can it take? It looks sweet in the photos :)
 
I find the build quality decent, very sturdy framing just a bit plasticy feel to the top cover but that's understandable as it is plastic :) Fan noise is fine, I'm half meter away from the front fan and it doesn't bother me at all, just a pleasant background hum. Inside is quite big and I've got a gt560 in it with ample room

The YouTube review for the powercool version is pants but I did manage to track down it's american cousin, the sentey arvina gs-6400 (check out the 6400r for pure sex) it's exact same case with exact same toolkit and accessories but their reviews on the page are far better. http://www.sentey.com/en_productos_...tes&ctg=Extreme Division&prod=gs-6400r-arvina

And, oh yeah, I've checked and they don't ship the 6400r overseas :(

i am 99.9% sure the raven covers its DVD drives, partly because it would look damned stupid if it didnt

yeah the top 2 are actually spring mounted and if you look very close at the front panel pics the top 2 have a little ejector button on bottom right that match up nicely with dvd ejects and its a very smooth action, the next 3 are blanks that can be taken out as needed for any 5.25" bays you may want front access too or indeed move the eject ones down and move the blanks up
