    Those Centurion 5 cases are pretty nice, good airflow, solid, and good price. Only thing I don't like is the screwless mounting (I prefer screws) but that is just my personal preference and bone to pick

    Someone did a really nice case mod on this case. You can see on the July issue of CPU magazine. That is an awesome price for that case.

    BTW, I like the cheetah sheets

    EDIT: It was the August issue

    I like your new case.

    Do are you using the stock 120mm and 80mm fans that come with the case? If you are using them how do you like their performance? Is it worth to replace them?

    Off-topic, but where is this CompUSA to be closed down?

    That is a nice case, though.
