I personally like the windowed case.

From examination of the design - alot of thought went into it.

It looks to have the best wire management capability I have ever seen. I like the black interior as well as the isolated cooling. This case looks huge. This case would allow for one very clean build. I say giver that !

So far I've checked with 3 stores in HRM, none can get it from suppliers.. Still waiting on MB to see if they can get one for me... waiting sucks.

I seem to be past the window'ed phase as well but at least this case does a nice job of it among other things.

Yeah, nothing beats a computer case that is also a good end table!

just to get an idea of how much room is in this thing, a full sized ATX board mounted with liquid cooling with only routing some cables out the back.

I also have the Mozart TX, but it is limited and time to move to something better.

for those of you who do not wanna have a windowed case - you can get the windowless version or order a windowless side panel for 30 bucks + tax and shipping
