All I've bought so far this month is a HDMI cable which I don't actually need (will do as a spare) and some reading glasses which I do need but wish I didn't :(

To replace my trusty old Akasa eclipse. Also the flooring is new, just finished that off today.

Rubber wheels for my desk chair to make it roll quieter on the laminate flooring. They seem good so far, the old plastic wheels slid about instead of rolling. I might get a big rug though as they still make some noise.

650D? Looks smooth. :cool: I think for new PC I'll get a Corsair 650D. :)

How are you finding it for working with? I recently upgraded my old Akasa Omega to an Antec 300 and whilst its a good case now I found it quite cramped getting stuff in there.

First impressions are very good. Looks to be solidly built and well thought out. Would have been better with brushed aluminium panels, but I'd imagine that would have made the case cost a lot more.

I haven't built in it yet but it looks like it will be very easy. I liked the removable mobo tray on the Eclipse, shame this doesn't have one. Although saying that there is a lot of room inside so it should be just as easy. All the hdds and optical drives cages are tool free. Fan filters can be removed without having to remove the side panels and the front of the case, like you had to with the eclipse. Should be far easier to hide wires with the 650D as well.

Can't wait to get it built and see if these massive 200mm fans make any difference to my temps.

Yeah, the sliding mobo tray on the Eclipse was very nice. I can't work out why I dumped an Eclipse for an Omega. :(:confused: I thought the Akasa cases were quite poor for helping route wires behind the mobo so that you got cleaner, uninterrupted airflow through the case.
