The question...

Do I wait till the Black is back in stock or do I order the RED?? I like both and am liking the Idea of or being different and getting the Red one and it's also cheaper :D

So whats the vote? Red or Black?
 
I've got a black one and I wouldn't want to change it, but I guess if you're an AMD/ATI fan then the red would make sense.

Have a look around, the black version can be had for under £130.
 
Red one being delivered tomorrow :) cannot wait my rig is currently living in a cardboard box

Cardboard box - worth considering - Good looking build there.....
Not sure about your cabling though - looks a tad untidy -
sorry to be critical:rolleyes:
 
Build is complete

Ok so not really a build log but more of a here it is and Oh my god it was a pain in the arse!!

First up I removed the Red 120mm fans from the front of the case and replaced them with Sythe Flex 120mm fans attached to the built in fan controller running all 4 fans at 5v keeping them nice and quiet. Other than removing the bottom half of the hard drive cage (I dont need room for 7 Hard drives!) I have done very little to this case as cable management is a PITA because there is nowhere to put any cables even with a modular PSU!

So here they are! The Pictures

I had the same. I thought it would be the same width as my PC7+... its not.

You've done a pretty good job as cable tidying in this case isn't easy. Have a look at BradMax57's thread here to see how he's made it tidier.

I found that using the onboard fan controller is a pain as its located in a really bad place and then you need to use a molex power cable to power it (found a sata>molex converter, but still).

Also 1 think I noticed, you might want to consider turning your PSU around so the fan is over the GPU unless you have cut ventilation holes in the side fo the case.

The PSU is better off this way around as as the other way around it would starve the CPU cooler of clean air, maybe once I get a H50 in there I will turn it around :) Temps are very good though.
