He's referring to Fractal's UK importer - you should be able to find this on the web if your trust isn't working.
I can probably get away with posting this link: http://www.fractal-design.com/?view=buy&category=

ok one last question
I want to use the fan controler that came with the case, where do I plug the 4 pin molex into... cant see any connector on my MOBO...

You can plug it into a normal 3pin fan connector. There should be 2 or 3 of those on your mobo, and they're usually white.
What are you using the side panels for? Making a window it would look pretty sweet but at the same time it kinda ruins the point of this case, maybe double glazing
I haven't ordered one yet, but I reckon a small window shouldn't do too much harm as long as you leave the dampening material on the uncut areas.

**** sorry I misunderstood.
Your molex connector needs to go into a standard molex connector from your PSU.
I'm pretty sure the fan controller in my FD R2 came with a 3/4 pin fan connector, not a molex :\

Doh! that sucks as I dont have a molex connector on my psu...
I have a conveter which goes from molex to 4 pin, and theres a 4pin fan slot spare on my mobo. will this not work?, does it need to go into the psu.. I also have a molex to psu converter too... (not sure what the psu end connecter is called.. its a block of 6
)

ok dumped the fan controller for the time being.. its to big to fit in one of the rear expansion slots so im guessing it should be in the front?
Anyhoo, I'vs used a fan splitter, and now im installing windows 7 on my first ever build!
Cheers all, couldn't have done it without this website.. let you know when Im up and running!

Your PSU doesn't have any molex connectors? I assumed that they all do!
The idea is that the 3 fans get their power directly from the PSU, which is then regulated by the controller. I've also used the red splitter to power 2 fans directly from the motherboard, but because the third wire isn't connected you can't monitor the speed.

I didn't have enough pins on my motherboard for all the fans. The back one, one of the top ones and one from the front plug in, whilst the second top and front ones go into the controller which I have hidden into a hard drive bay.
Some great pics on this review, not in english but the pics were enough to answer some of my questions. It's a comparison to the Antec P183 too.

Here is my effort, needs abit more tidying, just fitted the corsair H50 CPU Cooler as a replacement to my tuniq tower 120.
Are those defects on the front panel or fingerprints?
