Jeez, that looks like a jet engine intake! I wonder how they sound?

The fan specs says 35dB at full speed for both fans...but full speed is only 1500 RPM for the 140mm and 1000 RPM for the 250mm fan.

I wouldn't buy this case.

Cricket arent those speeds enuff considering the size of the fans? Wouldnt they move enuff air by the size of the fans and therefore conpensate for the slow speed? I always the bigger fans (120mm as opposed to 80mm) was better because you get more air movement at slower speeds meaning less noise. Or is there another reason you wouldnt buy it?

Looks alright but the way it's layed out I would think there might be some dead space around the top backs of the cd rom drives...Which is usually where the ram is and for enthusiast...you need cooling there...I would test it...but not sure of it's current config....

The fans are nice but the case does not do anything for me.

I would buy the fans is I had a 250mm fan port on the side of my case, but I can't stand those typical front door designs on the "gaming designated" cases.

Wow! That fan on the side is total overkill I think. I would think that it would just kill the airflow through the case. It would just knock the hot air around the case - there aren't any exhaust ports on the motherboard/right side of case... At least they stuck with one color - some "gaming" cases try to use every color of the rainbow. :rolleyes:

The cover for the side fan in that first picture looks more like a subwoofer cover from that angle! :D
