Thread Starter 
I think i've finally picked the case i want out for my build and i had a couple of questions...

Do you guys have a problem with dust in the case?

Is there a lot of noise that escapes from all the openings?



These were the only problems from what reviews i've read.

I don't hear much sound from my case usually, but I would guess that is dependent on the hardware being used. As for dust collection, yes; This is mainly for the fact that there are only two dust filters. one in the front of the case and one on the bottom. I still get plenty of dust on the fans (to be expected) and on horizontal components (including the floor of the case). Another problem I found is when I get my eATX motherboard, there may ba a problem with SATA ports being blocked. Oh well, we'll see. Other than that I have to cons about the case and the cable management you can get with the case is excellent.

Good luck on your build. It's looking like it's going to be a nice one.
