Silverstone TJ09 views please...

Hi People

I'm thinking of getting myself a shinny new black Silverstone TJ09 with the window.
I would just like to now some your thoughts on the case if you have one or if you've seen inside one. It does look a little cluttered inside around the hard drive bay but I still like the look of it.
So any of your views would be helpfully received before I splash out around £170 for one.

I don't have this case but I'm really tempted to buy the black one with the window as well.

This new review of it has lots of pictures inside and outside the case:

Hi all,

Just like to say I have had this case for about a couple of weeks now - upgraded from a temjin tj05 which itself was nice. I have found the new case to be better in a lot of areas, ie build quality, functionality and most important much better cooling - especially graphics. I can only add that it is worth googling for reviews. The only small downside of this case seems to be tidy cable management can be a bit difficult.

Overall I rate this case very highly, but of course one mans meat is anothers poison. Have yet to see a bad review or indeed any users with complaints worth worrying about.

I say go for it - you won't regret it, and it will last you for many years.

hdd cabling isn’t a problem bit funny at times but I’ve had 5 hdds there and had no problem with cables, ide hdds would be another case I would say no go on them.

The center blower does pull in a fair bit of dust, stock fans arnt noisy but there not silent either, the case is very deep and heavy so take that into account, had the case from January and am very happy.

What can I say apart from the best case I have ever owned. Great for watercooling. I should really get some pics posted as it does look pretty funky.

It's a really really good case?

What more is there to say really? The whole case is made of brushed aluminum, which gives it a very classy, very expensive look. There's plenty of room to work with inside the case, and the multitude of 120mm fans provide excellent cooling for the components. There's even a vent on the side panel that allows for excellent cooling of the Graphics card(s).
