I have to admit its a really nice case aslong as you mod the side window i heared some horror stories about the cooling but i seem to have some decent temps only a few degrees above my phantom which had the same amount of fans but 3 of which were 200mm so its not bad. It made a big differance adding a solid side window as i was loosing so much air pressure from the side grill, only thing im not that happy with is the work thats gone into the cooling system.

Technically ive paid corsair 100 quid to test a peice of hardware for them, the corsair link system links my lighting, cooling, psu and watercooler all into one secondary bios of sorts but after a week of playing with it i still cant get any real power readings. Thankfully all my cooling except 2 or 3 HDD temps and my lighting works well and incredibly quiet when idle, but as soon as i start putting any stain on anything the link system reacts to the temp and brings up a corresponding fan accordingly.

Just need some more money for my next upgrades so my PSU doesnt get bored pumping out such a low ammount of wattage.
