It's not just the clumsiness of the person, it really is just flimsy. I noticed how flimsy some elements on this case were when I first got it, so I was being anally cautious about the top and front panel. Well, I took off the front panel for the first time then put it back on and snap! - there went the stupid power button. I had to mod it with a paper clip to get it back on.

I love the design of this case immensely, but I hate the construction of it. Too many plastic parts that shouldn't be plastic.

Hi folks, I think I've posted this before, but I've finished making my DVD Drive stealthy so that it is now hidden - much better than having it ruin the nice perforated panels of the case! Here's a quick preview of how it turned out, but I've linked to the original thread below the pictures, so if you like, be sure to check it out as it has a full guide on how to do it yourself in no more than a half hour






So Like I said before - have a look at the original thread with a guide.

Cheers,
Chris

You have made making up my mind easier, I am buying a 690... you have the same mobo/gpu/psu as I will so my goal is to make mine as clean as yours, now I know it can be done. (referring to post #28, PG 3)

I just installed 2x8800GT's in my 690, I was anxious about how the temps would be. They idle at 44C & 41C, load temps max at 60C on the top card, bottom one is always 3~4C lower. The 690 rocks!
