I love mine. It's quiet when I have the fan's turned down and the front door closed. If I have the front intake turned up and close the door you can hardly hear it. The side panels feel solid, not like some other cases where they feel flimsy and you can hear them bend if you shake it. This however adds to it's weight and makes it heavier than most others. The VGA duct on the back is a little annoying, and I'm unsure of it's effectiveness at cooling down the components. If you are thinking about getting one a Zalman ZM-OP1 ( I think thats the model number of the fan ) fits in there perfectly.

Overall it's a great case and I love mine. It looks sleek and not overly obnoxious (lights everywhere, sorry I just don't find those things purposeful). On top of that, if you pick the right fans you will have an extremely quiet case. I paid $107 for mine plus shipping. It's a great investment, however I'm not sure if it's BTX compatible so as far as future upgrades when BTX becomes mainstream I'm uncertain of how it'll work out.
