Are you in the market for a roomy server case? Tired of the small cases that don't offer enough room for all your bits and bobs? Today we take a look at a case that can run the gamut from HTPC to server to gaming case and gives you more room than you can shake a stick of Rambus at.
You can read the full review here and discuss it here!

Just got the case and there are so many possibilities here.
I have a NV200 from CoolIt being shipped soon for the GTX280 As well as the CoolIt Freezone to be moved from the other case to this one. I'm planning on modding the front of the case for more front air intake, maybe cut the area in front of the 120mm fan area and recover with black fabric Anyway, I have been looking at this case for some time and finally got it. Already I have an airbrushed the case to a carbon fiber design. Pics to come later The Q9450 will have a new home Merlin

Yeah it is a great case, I enjoyed it quite a bit but I wasn't ever able to use it to it's full potential.

Well, it can take a double rad in the front on the mobo side with zero mods, you can put a triple in there with some work. In the rear you can put a quad 120 rad or a pair of double 120's with some modification.
