FYI: Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 announced!

I got mine today too, though paid £81.99 for it. Enough waving your willy though, it's not that much more expensive.

Looks amazing, and remarkably enormous!! I'll probably be transferring my build tomorrow :D will remember to take pics, I promise!

Hopefully tomorrow! I haven't got all my watercooling parts yet though, unfortunately, so it won't be the full thing.

Bad times, man. Beautiful case though, isn't it :D
 
Built it today and took loads of photos, but had some problem starting the PC up again afterwards, so I can't get any pics uploaded yet, sorry. Hopefully I'll get a couple up tomorrow.

It was a pleasure to put build though, really easy!!
 
Hopefully, I'll be posting a build log tomorrow, transferring from my Bitfenix Shinobi to this case, but for now, here's a taster:

It's superb for watercooling though. I can put 2x240 in it without any problem.

It was a breeze to assemble, very customisable inside, and the only criticism of it is that I'd like it to have an extra drive bay...but then it'd probably have to be a tower case with the 240 rad and 3 drives in there (one DVD RW/BR, and a two bay res).
 
Mines all built and up and running, with a fresh windows install :)
Looks tidy, through the windows that is, you don't even want to see the back of the MB tray........<.<

The fan controller works quite well, hooked my AF140 and the 2 H80i fan's up to it and put them on 5V. Corsair link doesn't seem to do anything for me for some reason....meh w/e.

Going to get a http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CB-013-AK though. Hook the h80i fan's up to it and plug it into one of the two headers on my motherboards which lets you control via the BIOS, going to set them to a low speed.
The other header which allows control in BIOS will have my AF140 on it and also set down to a low speed. Then the 3 fractal fans on the fan controller and set to 5V.
 
Not much point upgrading from a V1 for me. Having the 4 bottom drive bays is better for me although I thought the V2 had SSD mounts on the rear tray or something.
