Im considering getting the silver one myself. But i feel so evil buying a thermaltake product.

[sinsinking]

actually, this one has some style and 5 cm larger than lianli.
Before i feel evol to buy thermaltake product, but case with 40 rebate.
It's a good consideration for cost/performance. It comes with one front and one rear 120mm fan. Blue LED, this case is good for mod LED.I hope side panel can mount additional fan also. If it doesn't has the 40 rebate, i will choose stacker although it's rebate.

That mesh in side panel is not nice idea. You can hear noise from inside your computer just like there was no side panel at all. Otherwise Shark is interesting case.

yuck......

I got the black one, and I think the case is very nice. Coming from a Silverstone TJ05 which weighed a ton (all steel chassis) this is a blessing for a light aluminum case. I can see how people might get a little hung up on the mess side window. My temps in this case are great. ASUS A8N SLI Deluxe and my cpu idles at 29C and loads at 40C with the XP90. I haven't seen temps like that in ages.

i like how it has used all of the room at the front to its full advantage, by having 5 hdd bays and the rest 5.25", my chiftec case has enough room at the bottom for another hdd bay rack but there isnt one, its just empty with an intake fan there.

This is one of the better looking ThermalTake Cases, i wonder about the noise, tell us what temps ur getting.

[MadMikeSS]

With the Asus A8N SLI Deluxe and a 3200 Winchester OC'd to 2.5GHz (250x10) at 1.55V, my cpu idles at 28C and loads at around 41C in the Shark case.

[Richie]

Woah 28C! thats a good temperature man.

is it very loud? as was mentioned before by Buzku, it would probably make it alot noiser.

i know when i take the side of my case off i can hear a hell of alot more then with it on.

[MrQ3W]

Pretty ugly and I imagine it's loud too.

[MadMikeSS]

I also have a Thermalright XP90 cooling my CPU, I just threw on an Evercool heatpipe cooler and my temps are 31C idle and 51C load. As for noise, if you have a lot of noisy fans in the case, the open mesh will no prevent that from coming out of the case. If noise is an issue with people then I wouldn't suggest this case, it doesn't bother me at all so I'm a happy camper.
