    I just like the tower since it has an inverted MB and it may give me a way to move out of the TJ07.

    Ugh, those look horrible imo. Can't stand the thumbscrews holding all the panels on. To me, that just says the construction is too cheap to be really worthwhile.

    Now, if you really wanna see some nice new wc'ing cases check out the new Case Labs.

    It looks good, but what I can see on my phone, no inverted MB option. I am leaning towards having Rich build me a case.

    There's an option for inverted mobo's. There's LOTS of options. These guys get what we're looking for and the cases are specifically made for wc'ers. Unfortunately, I think they're too busy putting cases together to get their website up and running.

    I did not see an option, but it's a bit difficult to see everything on my iPhone. I will check it out later and thanks for the link.

    I'd supply you with other links but they'd be frowned upon by the mods. Do a search for Case Labs and you'll find some nice pics and write ups.

    These are the only cases that have even come close to get me thinking it might be time to move on from my TJ07.

    Yeah, I don't like Windy's very much (too much hype, saw them in person wasn't impressed) but then again I've been doing this for way too long. I'm a little more conservative when it comes to cases. MM's are a little more my style but back on topic, those XSPC cases are really close to MM designs IMHO.

    If you want everything internal I can't imagine a much better case.

    Meh... all these cases look like rubbish to me. It's a shame none of these companies invest in professional industrial design teams. I get it - good design costs lots of money. It's mostly just the big companies that can afford it. But they make cases for the mass market, with no consideration for enthusiasts/modders/WC'ers/etc. So we're left with mediocre design, or mediocre capability.

    As for Windy, I liked them more when they were called Soldam. Guess that makes me a PC chassis hipster :P

    I love the look of the H2, but price is a bit steep for a case which is flat packed and thumb screwed together. Also, whats with the radiator placement opportunities??

    "Opportunities for radiator placement abound!
    Position 1: The H2 supports up to a quad 120mm radiator in the roof of the case. You can attach it using the provided 6-32 screws or the screws provided with your radiator. Only screws with a length of 6mm or below should be used.
    Position 2: You can mount a triple 120mm or 140mm radiator in the base of the case using a set of XSPC radiator brackets (sold separately). The base of the case has pre-drilled holes for the brackets.
    Position 3: A single 120mm radiator can be mounted on the front panel, but only if the optional second HDD cage has not been fitted."


    It looks like a quad could fit
