That's not his build :p

It's also not as fantastic as it appears.. (from what I've read).

The 800d is a better quality case, and actually has more room for rads...

AnAndtech decided of the 810 that it was 'Jack of all trades, master of none'. Which frankly is probably true. It looks like a pretty good case on paper. But I'm pretty sure the Elysium is better than it, and I'm also pretty sure that when it comes out the Shinobi XL will be better than it.

Also, seeing as you missed them:

That really does look nice and spacious. Is there any stock pictures of the inside without and gear and will there be a black version?
 
black and white, there may be a gun metal version, for ease im actually going with the 600T in my order, but im keeping an eye on this case maymod it in the future.
 
This is a pretty nice build I found on the net using the 810 switch. I'm hoping to create something similar myself ( minus the posh fittings just barbs for me, might change when got a bt more cash ), don't think I will bother with push pull fans on the bottom rad tho. I think it looks better with just fans mounted on top.

wouldn't believe what you read...

my mate has one of these and they are good feels solid and NZXT do a great job of matching the paints, for the money it's a no brainer.

i would get one, but it is slightly cramped.
 
After much mulling I've decided to buy one of these, and it arrived today. I'll be putting a 360 in the top and a 240 in the bottom. Only slight problem I can see with my build is where to put my Laing DDC as there'll be no room for it at the bottom with the PSU and 240 rad down there.

Think I'm going to invest in a mounting bracket and find somewhere to put it without it ruining the look of my build.
 
i am considering this for my watercooled build in easter with my 420mm rad

this is one of two cases that will accommodate a 420mm rad without modding and i dont like the xigmatel :(

See that's the thing, I don't like the idea of slightly cramped. I don't have anything against the case, at the moment I'm just thinking the Shinobi XL may be better... (it may not to be fair)

As setter kind of said, I'd personally wait for the Shinobi XL to hit the shelves. It looks like it may be slightly better spaced and more accommodating, and I'm pretty sure it should be hitting shelves pretty soon.
 
The shinobi xl does look to be a bit more spacious. An important consideration for me, as my current case is pretty spacious.
