Just got this case today and since there aren't too many user photos of this particular model I decided to take a few pics and upload for all :)

http://jonnylaris.co.uk/newcase.html

I will do a full review on it when I receive the rest of the parts this weekend :)

But for now all I can say is:

amazing build quality
small but loads of room
very clever design
looks stunning

edit: oh and excuse the crappy camera!

08/10 Update: Here is the final product:

Removed one allready, the closest to the PSU end, took 14 screws and quite a bit of patience but managed to get it out scratch free. The HD cages themselves are the best I have seen before and they make for easy cable management.

I wont be using the 200mm fan btw, just not nessesary when il be watercooling this rig in a few weeks :)

Thank you and good night, much love.

its the square silver thing just underneath the orange paper. I guess its used for extra cooling for the chipset / cpu but I'm not using it.

Here's a few quick pics of the setup btw. Note i just fired everything together quickly to test the setup. Currently running at 4ghz on a q9550 :)

Watercooling with come next month as will the cable management! :)

edit: pics dont do this case justice! I will take some better ones in the light at the weekend!
 
hehe, i regret not taking more time when i installed everything to get some decent cable management going on but i was just too keen to get it all up n running :D

pics @ end of month with W/C + CM :D
 
I will be ordering:

Swiftech Apogee GTZ (LGA775) Waterblock
Thermochill PA120.3 120mm Triple Radiator
Swiftech Laing D5 Vario MCP655 12V DC Pump
Alphacool Single 5.25" Bay Reservoir (Black)
EK 1/2" Hose fittings
Masterkleer 7/16" Tubing
Feser One UV Reactive Coolant (Blue)

Rad will be mounted on top of the case so I'm cutting out 3 120mm holes in the top for the fans. Hopefully all goes well, will be a bit harder than usual as the top of the case can not be removed, its all 1 peice, a lot of work! :)
 
1) Side window comes with the case
2) Extended powersupply bracket (creates more room)
3) Extra 200mm fan for cooling pci-e cards etc
4) newer HD racks for better ease of use

And the fact that its ATX instead of rATX (and yes aparantly they did this for heat reasons but I duno the details)

thats basically the main things anyway

I thought the PCI-cooling fan was 140mm. A BS-04.

Could be, tbh I havent measured it, it just seamed very BIG so i thought 200mm :)

Any chance of the pa120.3 fitting internally on the roof or is space too tight? Im really considdering one of these for my first watercooling build but I've decided I want it all internal.

erm, if you move your optical drive down 1 bay I dont see why not, personally I'l be mounting mine on top, make use of the pre drilled tube holes :)

Does it blow or suck? Would you consider selling it?


I've got a V1110 ordered that should be arriving on Tuesday, and providing it won't get in the way of my graphics card cooler I'm thinking of getting one.
