Anyone else here have a jeantech case?

http://www.jeantech.com/v1aqua.htm
I have a Jeantech Aqua, no problems with it, removable motherboard tray, 4 5.25 slots, 2 external 3.5 and 4 internal 3.5, more than enough room for my 8800GT with 2 inches or so to spare, plus can leave out the hdd rack and use the other 3.5 bays for hdd if i need more space for a longer gfx card ;) .

it has a removable motherboard tray, but i do not use it as both sides of the case drop down :o , they call it "butterfly", can be a push with main motherboard 24pin though :rolleyes: . all nce and toolless, has a "pci-bracket" which holde the cards in plaace well.

PS- sorry for bad quality, taken with phone :S
 
I have a Jeantech Phong, and whilst it has a few flaws and is a little small for a high end rig, it's build quality is superb.
 
I also had the jeantech Aqua case, i liked the look of the case and the build quality was excellent.

For me it was a little bit too Gimmicky, and the reason i changed to a different case was because of the lack of support for 120mm fans, and i wanted something a little bit smaller.

But overall i would say it was a good case.
 
i also looked at the jantech phong, but i like the neat extras on the aqua, the mini accessory box for screws ect that slots in bellow the hard drives is excellent, i never loose the screws now >.<

I don't think Jeantechs have ever been bad for the money on them, somethign rare to find these days. The trouble being the styling puts a lot of people off who prefer subtler cases (Lian-Li fans like me for instance ;) ). Either way, not bad.

I got one of those aqua cases as well, good solid cases, if your always upgrading parts in your pc, the butterfly panels come really handy.

One think I don't like about it, lack of support for 120mm fans, I hear there's a new revision of this case with a rear 120mm fan included

I have dremelled a blow out 120mm fan of top of the case. Fitted a 80mm to 120mm Fan convertor on the windowed side panel.

The cheapest Jeantech - The Neo Black Case, has 120mm fan support in front also at rear, that only retails @ £20.

I have had a Jeantech Nitro for a couple of years, and its cooling is on par with my new antec 900, however the build quality and layout is inferior to the antec imo.
 
ok, cables tidyed enough for me to post the pics,

If you think its untidy now, it was much worse earlier >.<
i do need to get a new IDE cable, this one has oe wire exposed and is too wide, thinking of a nice round long black one that will fit between the gap next to front bays.

I'm supprised that OCers don't stock these cases, the quality and usability is great for the price, and imo they look quite good aswell
