I wonder would this be better then an Eclipse for cooling, an sli or tri sli setup.
Seriously thinking of getting this.

- They sorted the problem with the front 120mm fan intake being blocked by letting you reverse the hard drive cage, plus has 2 quiet 80mm fans on the side for additional hard drive cooling. The front intake definitely looks a lot better then the Eclipses.

- 2x120mm fans on rear

- Mesh side panel to aid ventilation

- And there is enough space over the mobo tray to mount a Tuniq with fan facing rear of case, which you can't always do on an Eclipse if the cpu socket is placed very high.

- All fans are quiet enough, so no need to volt mod them or replace them. They are also all blue led jobs.

- Comes with window addin if you don't like mesh.

Any negatives besides the looks which some people may not like.

Very nice. Thanks.

Can you use screws to secure your video card if the pci plastic retention yoke doesn't work (which was the case on the aurora with dual slot cards) ?
 
Amazed only 1 review of this on the web and hardly anyone selling it. Seems a great case, no need to replace fans, comes with window and very reasonably priced. Around same as Akasa Eclipse.
