CM Storm proudly unveils the Sniper™ gaming grade PC chassis, developed in cooperation with the world's leading professional gaming teams, including SK-Gaming, Team Fnatic and mousesports. Featuring CM Storm's radical new doctrine, Storm Tactics™, which emphasizes Strength, Security and Control, the Sniper is designed to satisfy the lifestyles and unique needs of hardcore and casual gamers alike.

The Sniper features unprecedented airflow from up to three huge fans: a 200mm blue LED fan in the front, a top exhaust 200mm LED fan and yet another optional 200mm VGA intake, all backed up by additional 120-140mm fan locations (6 in total), creating some seriously heavy duty airflow to cool all your high-end PC components. Developed with elite engineering skills, and reinforced by the highest grade materials, your Storm gear will perform and deliver with unfailing reliability, letting you focus on your game and worry less about your hardware.

The Sniper offers a built-in one-for-all fan controller, which lets you tune your airflow to find the perfect balance between thermal performance and silent operation. Integrated in the extra large control knob is a LED light switch, letting you decide exactly when to turn on the lights for a full-on gaming session, and when to chill out in the dark with your favorite movies. Furthermore, the Sniper gaming chassis features convenient carrying handles for fast and efficient mobilization, multi-position water cooling holes, tool free design, and great expandability for peripherals, HDDs, optical drives and function panels. Injected with Storm Tactics, the Sniper lets you tweak and tune your hardware to work just the way you want it.

I'll report back as soon as I have the info you need.
 
***UPDATE***

I've done some enquiring and found that the case will NOT be released with full black internals.

......has been doing the rounds but I can confirm that the case pictured was a one off review sample, photographed and reviewed well before the official release version.

Hope this clears up any confusion ;)
 
Hi Andy

Do the fans have dust filters insitu? I have checked both links provided, unfortunately the description does not specify dust filters

Cheers
