finaly ocuk got some v2000B +'s in stock

i been waiting nearly a month!

anyway, it took me 20 mins to get the side off

didnt realise u had to pull the screw part to unlock the side, the instructions which were almost in engrish, made it look like u just pull the side.

the case is huge and my sata cables only just reach, 1 mm less and they wouldnt.( are longer wires available to buy or extensions?).

the fan that goes over the gfx card is awsome, sucks out a lot of warm air, i hate to think what was happening in my p180.

with all the space im thinking of maybe watercooling in a couple of months time.im sure an 2.120 rad will fit in easily(i dont want to cut holes in it).

cant post pics as sony ericsson dont do vista or 64 bit software to connect phone to pc

Just plug the phone in it should be recognised as a USB drive without any additional software.

You can get 90cm cables, that's what I did for my V1200+. ('bay at around £1.80 each)

Where abouts do you route your sata cables? I'm just looking at the Pro's and Con's of various routes and which bay to store my two HDD's in.

(I've got a V1200+ aswell, and am trying to get my case as tidy as yours!)

I have the V1000 and together with some 100cm sata cables i was able to run them underneath each of my 3 drives so they came out on the other side.
Then I just connected them that way, looks quite good.
Meh, I was thinking of getting a V2000 but now I don't really know, i'd love a G70 as well.

Well if its extra space you're after, and you like the look of the case, why not??

Oh god, don't make me post another picture I'll get voted out of the forum or something :S

But they are routed under the motherboard and kept in place with cable ties.

i had to put mine in the top hdd bays and run the cables thru the hole over the top of the mobo. so im gonna have a look for them long sata cables. i dont fancy taking the board out again to route the cables underneath tho, i shall have to send them all the way around the edge.
