Is this case any good? It looks nice and i want it but im not sure on a few things.

Is there anything as nice looking cheaper and as good?

Will it fit a gtx 570 phantom?

Is there a top of case 120mm fan?

Is there a 120mm front intake fan, i know theres a fan there but duno if its 120mm or 140mm.

Any issues with it?
 
Great case, best case I had.
Like the SATA X dock, also has room for two 240mm radiators.

Yes, mine came with a front & rear 120mm fan, top of the case will take two 120/140mm fans.

Nightglow, thats the advanced one or as ocuk puts it a dominator one. The other one is cheaper but ocuk dont sell it apparently which is the one im thinking of getting. The lite/basic one.
 
My box was wasn't marked 'Dominator or Advanced' when it arrived, so someone cocked up.


RC-692-KKN3-GP is the code I have on my box, which is for the CM-690 II Lite.:)

RC-692A-KKN5 is for the Dominator version with the SATA X Dock.

I bought a lite version back when ocuk stocked them. Missing the sata dock in the top and some bracket or other for gfx cards. There is space for 2x 140mm fans in the top, 2x 140mm fans in the side, 1x 140mm in the front, 1x 140mm in the base, 1x 120mm in the back, 1x 120mm behind the HDD cage (if you take the cage ou you can have another 140mm fan in the base instead) and 1x 80mm beind the cpu socket in the other side panel. The 140mm fan spaces can take 120mm instead.

The lite case comes with a blue led 140mm fan in the front and a black 120mm fan in the back. There is the usual hardware pack with lots of screws andstand-offs etc included.
 
Bought it and got a good deal i think.

It looks great, should be a nice upgrade for me from a antec p160w. Tho i will surely miss the window and easy lock system for the side panel, i really liked them features. Still the fan spaces and the cable tidy and the backplate section and just cool black sleek look of the thing should make up for them. ;) Also nice to hear about dust filters for all grill sections. :)
 
i have one :D

it comes with a 120mm blue led front intake fan and a plain black rear fan,

you can fit either a 120/140 in the front and at the rear, you can also fit two 120/140mm fans in the roof if you wish and also two at the bottom and two on the side panel.

can easily take two 240 rads and i love my case but want something bigger now :D

hope this helps
 
You have a antec 620, me too. :)

What way have you got it setup as? As I have 2 gentle typhoon 1850 fans for a push and pull and i was going to use the antec fan as a intake on my old case p160 but now that im getting a new case i guess i can still mount it there or i could have it as a top case exhaust or side fan but i really duno which way to put that one. Now im wondering which way to have it, the antec 620 push and pull system, in the case, in the top, the rear. Should i have it as a intake from rear and the front fan blowing air out as a exhaust.

What do you reckon and any chance of a piccy of your case insides? :)

What is the best way for air flow with 2 gentle typoons on push and pull for a antec 620 (where do i put the 620 and in exhaust or intake?). Should i move the stock fans that came with the case i.e 140mm front fan and 120mm rear fan or leave em where they are. Where should i put the antec 620 fan?

My thoughts were.

Replace the 140mm front intake with the 120mm antec 620 fan. Put the 140mm on the top as well as have the 620 push and pull system on top as well. Keep the 120mm rear fan where it is. Duno if thats any good or not and not sure if the antec 620 will be ok mounted on the top of the case.
