Well i got mine also on Friday and must say i am very happy, had a Cosmos S, The HAF keeps my parts much cooler and fans are quiet. The fan screws can be removed with a Allen key.

Anyone that has one of these, can you confirm that it'll fit a 160mm tall heatsink (eg TRUE, Xigmatek S1283/1284, etc) with the side fan still on? I'd be fairly surprised if it couldn't, but I'd rather be safe than sorry :p:

It should fit because I have a CM Hyper 212 in a CM 690 case. The HAF 932 is much bigger than the CM 690. :)Quote:

Basically no problem :)
i cant fit my hdt-1283 in my 690 with the fan on, but i'm quite sure that on the 932 it is possible
well, those who already got the case, start posting PICS!!!!!!!!
Still waiting on WCing parts so i'm going to be a week or two before I get mine started. I can say that the 932 is about 2in wider than my 690.Quote:

but in saying that, the HAF 932 is one of the best cases I have ever seen! its better then my TJ-07 by far in function, I can WC without losing HDD bays!!
Overall if your thinking about this case...... BUY IT!!
I am seriously thinking about ditching my V2110b for this one.On my V2110b, there was no cable management feature and the air flow inside the case is abysmal to say the least(E8600 @ stock volts and speed went all the way to 75C during burn test with a true with fans in push/pull). For 24/7 and a decent OC(4.2) on my E8600 I had to open the side panel and keep it running
that way. The problem is I don't know what I would do with my v2110b.
A lot of modding potentonal:O
Can't wait to see it. Pics please. I want this case but want black internal paint. Also I want to see the WC mounting. :pQuote:

EDIT: NVM, I found out from here that it does not without drilling the case(Atleast for the PA 120.3 and I guess the Feser also has the same spacing).Ah well, I think I would have to suck it up and drill the holes or probably live with a MCR320 or simliar.
feser is 15mm, thermochill is 24.5mmQuote:

Hi guys....so whats the veredict? Is this better than the CM 830? I am trying to decide between a local selling me a 830 with 2 extra HDD cages and all the fans replaced with the LED versions for $150 or the 932...help please.
The 830 is going to have an overall better build quality however, I would prefer the HAF due to ease of radiator placement and looks. Air flow in HAF would also be higher and fans it quieter.Quote:

Because i'm using 3x120 one and I want to be sure before i buy the case. :)
It'll fit a 120.3 rad in the top. There is another fan mount a little bit further along, and it has vents underneath the top cover. But it'll only fit radiators with the mounting spacing as Black Ice and Swiftech radiators (ie no spaces between the fans).Quote:

So it seems that if I want to WC then this will be a better choice than the 830 correct?
Check out the link that I provided in my post to NCIX forums. This person has mounted a PA 120.3 up top with push/pull fans. But then he had to drill holes to make it fit.He had said in that forum the review would be up in hardwarecanuks soon.Quote:
