yea I dislike tool-less, not yet come across any that are completely fault-less

the PCI card holders are ok though, but you can use screws if you want, just open the holder all the way.

I dislike the 5.25" bay holders though, they are fine for things like fan controllers and optical drives, but if you have other things like HDD bay convertors or Scythe Quiet drive, it doesn't grip it tight enough, you can still use screws though, but a bit difficult on the tool less side.

As for the weight, take off both panels and then lift it, becomes mega light

I have the HAF coming in the mail, should be here tomorrow, or Monday. Hoping for tomorrow.

I will be watercooling it with a PA120.2 and a apogee GTZ, mcp-655.. goodies like that. So heopfully all goes well.

Anyone that's installed a PA120.2/3 inside the HAF. can you show me where you drilled your holes?

Also, If the tool-less design is anything like the CM 690, and I think it is. It will work just fine. I had zero problems with the CM 690's tool-less design. I have SLI 260's that are being help up just perfect with no problems at all. I love the CM 690, and I think I'll love the HAF just as much, but it will be cooler.. Colder i mean!

Like said above. Tool-less pci isn't as tight as you want it to be, so use some good old screws. I was afraid my 4850 was going to break if i just left it with the tool-less things. Great cabinet with loads of airflow apart from that.

**xguntherc** · 02-06-2009, 10:06 AM

really, they are very tight on my CM 690.. thats to bad they are different on this case.. Meh oh well, now I just have to hope it comes today.

**redrumy3** · 02-06-2009, 10:08 AM

if i somehow get rid of my cm 690 this will be my next case for sure

I have a 9800GX2 that's been in mine for 3 months without any screws. I practically had to stand on the thing to get them to push in it was so tight, did yours click in and everything?

Actually the tool less PCI slots are better on the HAF

borrowed this pic from cluboc.net

it has holes already!

**jellyrole** · 02-06-2009, 08:43 PM

Are there enough holes to accommodate a 3x120 though?

Yes, check the manual, you remove the top front plastic part to put the other two screws in.

**Kingsfan** · 02-06-2009, 09:51 PM

and that plastic has a vent for the fan too!

**RAND0M1ZER** · 02-07-2009, 06:01 PM

the holes that are there, support either the default 230mm fan or 3x 120mm fans

if you are installing a radiator it has to be 15mm fan spacing (swiftech, feser, hwlabs).
the thermochill uses 25mm spacing i think... so it wont fit without some modification

**Bertross** · 02-07-2009, 06:10 PM

i curerently have a Antec 900, only issue is you really need to sit down and spend along time trying to get the cable sorted out.

Would it be worth me buying the HAF?

Fits perfectly

heres a preview of my friend (Greenfox) rig, is not finished yet, but soon more detailed pics

!

**Greenfox** · 02-08-2009, 05:30 PM

Firts of all, thanks Blacky for your help on the water loop!

Heres my pre-final look!, waiting for another UV cathode and a fan I ordered to finish the rig. Enjoy

!

Overall, I'm extremely happy with my new platform, it has surpassed my expectations

**mikey063** · 02-10-2009, 08:10 AM

I have decided that this is the case I want for my next build, I love the size and versatility.

I shall begin with air cooling and then take the plunge(pun intended) into water cooling.

**lumberj4ck** · 02-10-2009, 09:13 AM

green that is one of the cleanest loop setups ive ever seen, great job you two.

**Hudson** · 02-10-2009, 10:32 AM
