I've got it already.

Its got the looks but I daresay I think the v2k series has better features + cooling

Only 6 hdd slots seems a bit small for a case this size
Front I/O cables are are not long enough (plain stupid)
Cable management hasn't been given a thought
Side panels are difficult to install

Pros

fans are good to install (only comes with two which is stingy for case worth 200)
Hdd racks work nice but difficult to slide hdds properly in them.
Cooling is very good (although i'm sure there are better cases for that)
interior build quality is excellent (case weighs a lot. period)

any more questions ask away

I've used 4 ATCs cases before and this was a good upgrade.

mmh, tries to think of questions

its my first build so i cant think of anything that would be a problem form ones ive had in the past

hdd, drives sint going to be a problem for me anyway, would only be using 2, maybe 3max (but would be a later edition)

whats the cable management like? like can you put them behind the mobo-tray? if not would there be room to do this if a hole was drilled into the tray (like what some poeple do to some cases)

any pics of yours?

edit: whats the v2k series? or any others with similair looks looks-wise?

Yeah

Cable management isn't like the Antec p182 for example which has precut holes to route wires.

You just have to make the best of it in the silverstone case.

If you want to router sata cables properly you'll need longer than 60cm ones as well.

Haven't got any pics atm
