I don't have it but it certainly looks well designed although the special bay for a Raptor X is a bit of a nonsense. Aesthetics wise though it looks too 'busy', I find it is a problem with all Thermaltake cases, it seems as if someone has just decided to fling everything at the case and hope the end result looks cool. That said if you like it don't let me put you off.

Can't disagree with that. Overengineering has been a problem with Thermaltake right back to the Xaser.

It is not the most sexyest case, though it does boast alot of features !

I'm actually liking the look of the Antec Nine Hundred
Plenty of cooling and not bad looking - it's currently top of the list for my new gaming rig. Stan

I think that's a nice case.. I like Thermaltake cases but it's personal choice at the end of day. As long as it has 12cm fans at front and rear it can't be too bad.
Bear in mind your upgrade otions. . . This is a midi tower so space inside may be limited.. especially if you are considering buying larger graphics cards at a latter date.. so it might be worth checking this out first... The case (apart from the front) look identical to the Tsunami dream i've just sold.. The main problem I had with that was the limited space inside. It's a B****** getting the motherboard in and out. If I was going for a midi case now, I'd certainly go for the P180.

Even the P180 can not take 8800 !
 Check this Link for PC cases that can and those that can not do 8800 http://www.maximumpc.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=50540

Yes it does.. I have seen it being used in a P180... You can move the drive cage around.
worth going through this... http://***.tosk.co.uk/8800/

Replace the *s with w x3 and you get the right link, no clue why they appear as * in Huddy's post though.
