Depends mate. Do you want to have a "colour theme" or just want to put anything in and ready to go?

I just don't want anything to overheat. Not like the hardware is likely to overheat... but when I upgrade, I want everything kept cool.
are the stock fans really that bad though? Does everyone replace them?

They are terrible mate, I had the stock fans hooked up to my fan controller. I put them all on low, very little air flow moving into the case. Put them on max, it seems the airflow didn't change. They are utter rubbish, don't get me wrong, they are silent, can't hear them but they do nothing lol.
If you are going to do the blue and white colour theme, I would go for the Scythe fans as they are white ain't they?

Great big cases, I aginised over getting one of these or a Lian-Li full tower. I went for the Lian Li and I know it was still the right decision for me but seeing these pictures I have to admit this is one hell of a case.
Certainly it is ideal for watercooling and there is enough space to accomodate anything you could want in there for a long time to come.

This will be filled with Asus P6T SE, Intel I7 920, 6GB Corsair XMS3, Corsair H50, a GPU (5770)
and my existing WD500GB disks.
More to follow as I go along, so far it has been great!

All those cables look really weird. lol

Edited to enlarge.
Yeah, there is a few people who don't like the cables in white.
I'm going to try and make them slightly less visible though, try pulling them through more at the back.
Personally I like them
I'm going for a white and black theme, and it's not anywhere near finished yet!

Would be nice if Corsair had raised the bottom of the window so you could not see the power supply area or maybe provided a panel that you could fit inside just to hide the wires as they came out from the PSU.
Would just give a neater finish to what is a great case

Totally agree. Who wants to look at a psu with a billion cables coming out of it?

Anyone else have this problem? The top power connector didn't want to go in! Really annoying. I tried forcing it in but didn't want to break it.
