Sweet! Sound like some mighty impressive plans there Simon.
All the best of luck with it... just make sure to keep us all posted!
Cheers for the kind words matey! Much appreciated!!!
Agreed... there's no doubt the v1000 + v2000 cases are BEAUTIFUL!!!

Hi Warren,
Yes, the HDD rack is removable. It screws in so you're good to go.
Can't recommend these bad boys enough to be honest. Space, silence, layout and space again!

Hi JC,
It's screwed in, so is easily removeable.
If i only had up to 6 HDD's to accomodate i'd use the supplied 3 drive caddy in the spare PSU location and (as you say) the 3 drive caddy for the 5.25" bay - that way there's plenty of room for a concealed 120.2 rad!

Hi Jason,
Should be arriving at the end of November... makes it a perfect christmas present i would say!!!
gt
Cheers Jason!
You're right in thinking that Deluxe! You can see it removed in Simonnance's last picture post: HERE
Acres of space!

Cheers marl,
Glad you liked it!!!
Always the way! But they're worth the wait.
What you getting in the meantime HighlandeR?

I'd take a look at the v2000 and maybe add a couple of ex-33's to draw some cool air into the mobo area.
That way you'd have airflow to the cpu and 8800 while the 120mm fan in the lower section would cool the hdd's.
Before i was lucky enough to get this case that was the route i was taking. The design of the ex-33's perfectly complements the design of the v series.
Plus you can get a window for it too!

Thanks Legoman,
Yes, you are correct... the 70 has the recessed area over the double lower intake. The 71 is flat from all the images of it i have seen!
I would have loved the PC-7077A but like you i missed out on it.
You'll love either of these cases.
gt
I'd say £200 maximum... it's definately worth the wait!Cant think of getting another case while knowing u got a A70B
Due late november for £200 still?
gt
I just asked when the case would be released as i loved its looks and features.
I explained that i was very interested in buying it and wanted to post a review on the forums once i'd bought it.
I was very surprised when they offered to send it out to me.
gt
Nope.
Draws air in the front and exhausts at the rear.
With the optional watercooling top panel it will also exhaust out of the top of the case too!

Hi Durzel,
I'd say so.
I don't have a 120.2 to check but if you look at simonnance's pic here http://img210.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dscf1091yg9.jpg you'll see that there's around a 2cm gap at the base of the lower hdd cage fan, then a 2cm gap between the fans and finally a 2cm gap above the top fan.
Assuming every 120.2 i've ever seen stack their fans completely flush that should allow around 6cm's of free space for barb connections etc.
I've nearly got all my kit for my watercooling attempt so will get pics of the 120.3 going into the roof.
It will fit but i will have to move my dvdwr to a lower bay to gain a vital extra cm or two!
