What case is this???

Getting that itch again to do a refresh, curious as to which case this is? I thought it was the RV02, but ones I've seen have had a different HD arrangement on them.

cheers in advance folks!

that's a modified FT02

the rv02-e has the same HDD things but it looks like that system has had the hdd cage drilled out and re-riveted in to allow the hdds to sit lengthways.

edit, it looks like an older ft02 with the older fans/old filters. I bet that rad gets filled with dust. A newer ft02 would have the filters underneath ap181s

Mmmm. I like the FT02, but the RV02 is quite a bit cheaper.

Cheers!

This can be done in the rv02-e. The difference between a newer ft02 and rv02-e is the top/front panels and the ft02 has the tooless 5.25 things.

Deffo requires modding though. I'm actually looking to buy this 3x180mm rad atm so that I can use it in the future when I ditch my 680s. Atm it won't fit with the standard filters installed because lightnings are too long.

Is the RV02-E still available to buy??

I noticed a RV02B-W, but that doesn't have the same HD setup.

I got mine from ocuk a few months ago. There was one in stock last I checked but is out of stock now.

Worth checking with them.

edit: don't get the non evo version as the fans are meh.

Nah about the filters seen that mod on you tube what the guy did was remove where the filters go and mount magnets on them and put them under the case.

Ah - so the RV02-E is the only one worth getting?
