So easy to work in this case cable tidy cut outs just great,got me the 8 pin and 24 pin power extensions from ebay these were a big help.Very quiet when fans are all on low setting not tooo bad on full.
Yes the side panel will go back on even with all them cables and molex plugs.
How come the americans get a free optional 120mm fan:eek:

Any way to clean the perspex window without leaving marks behind ?

Every perspex window I have had to date, when you wipe it to remove the dust with something even as soft as a specsavers cloth, it always leaves slight marring, even swirls marks (depending on how you wipe it) which is visible under led fans. I suppose there is no way around this. However would there be anyway to protect the acyllic e.g. Plexus
 
kk, this looks like it might be my next case, but £100+ is an aweful lot for a case, my last case was £40!

Anyway, is it steel or Alu?

Anyone managed to put a 120.3 up to the front fans?

And why does the 900 have a handle at the top and this one doesn't. :(
 
Cools better then your Eclipse then BFG ?

Any problems with the acrylic marking..hate how they scratch so easy, even light scratches when you clean it.

money spent on cases is always money well spent imo. I ususally spend 10-15% of the totally budget on the case.

A few degree's cooler, the top fan is an added bonus as no hot air is collected and trapped at the top of the case...:cool:
 
I have to admit my perspex case on the 1200 was already scratched when i got it out of the box. Not sure why as surely the case would have merely been touched to transport it in to the box no more than that.

Good job i was not too bothered, but otherwise the 1200 is amazing, very cool and with the optional fans for the side and middle of the case its great. The cable management is awesome with the holes cut out in the correct places.


One thing you may have to check for is to ensure your dvd rom cable reaches your dvd rom drive, i am using both a dvd rw and dvd rom and it would not reach both the drives, as the attachment was set to far down.

Other than that this is one heavy mofo, but definitely worth it.

Oh and the power button sticks in a wee bit sometimes but not really bothered with that, i think it was because it was new, seems to have gone fine now.
