That's a big case. I can't see me ever needing that manay drives.;)

As to where, I really don't know, I've never seen that model on sale before. Email the manufacturers maybe?

I find that no matter how big the case everything ends up squezed in the bottom of it.

Saying that I do have 5 HDD's and 2 CD drives and all my PCI slots full

Its not really a full tower, only a few inches taller than a standard case.
It is puurdy though :)
It's also got a 5.5 bay at the very bottom (its got a cover) that will take a cd/baybus or whatever else you need access to without opening the door.
I've read a few reviews and it gets good marks, the only real bad point is that it does not have a removeable m/b gizmo. I rarely (if ever) need to remove the m/b so shouldn't be a problem.

A removable mobo tray is something I will never buy a case without, ever again. It makes life so much simpler.

I've decided to go "stealth" on this case :)

The Vantec Stealth case fans , will really help keep things quiet, look very good.
Here's the plan....

The case has 4 x 80mm holes already, 2 front and 2 rear, so thats a no brainer. I'm also going to convert the fans on my Enermax PSU, so far so good, and easy. I "might" also put a couple of blow holes, well one suck and one blow, probably 120mm. I'll help keep things even quieter with a couple of Pyramid fan silencers if its all still too noisy.

I'm playing also with converting my CPU fan to 80mm and using another Vantec Stealth, I'm after quietness you see. I'm running a non overclocked 1700 athy with an SK6 cooler, think that'll keep the CPU temps ok?

Stage two is to convert all my led's to blue. Case, keyboard, floppy, cd,cdrw the lot. Where can I get blue led's, I've looked at all the main UK mod sites with no luck.

Finally I'm making everything black, 'cus I'm sick of beige.

I'm not planning on any windows or O/Cing, I just want my PC to look reasonable and not deafen me.

Any suggestions or input would be greatly appreciated, ta muchly.


edit/ Anyone know a UK online distributor for the Vantec fans?

You sure thats the only name they come under?

When I bought my original black case it was an Antec case but then later I found exactly the same cases but called Chieftec cases.

All very strange...

Vantec are fan manufacturers :) Vantec. These fans are 21dba on an 80mm fan,20dba on a 120mm fan, compared to the usual 30 odd. Even panaflo and papst fans are more noisy.

The case I'm getting is made by AVGS, and is easily available in the UK.
