Weird case

[phen0m]

I was checking the new products on xoxide and found this baby. Shes got a monstrous 400mm fan! Personally, I think its ugly.

eww it looks like a house fan from the 80's I use to have.

I think the shark was jumped after 250mm or so. The 200mm top fan in my 1200 is all the fan I'd ever want.

Near silence? A larger fan with move more air with less speed therefore being quieter. A box fan cannot be compared to that as box fans are designed for a different application.

good point, hadn't thought of it that way :up:

I don't know if I'd shell out $100 on it. I could see some potential in it, but I'd like to see one in person first and hear how loud the fan is. I would more think you might hear a whistle or air movement from cracks or openings in the case more than anything.

The thing that bothers me about this case (and others like it) is that it's an ordinary case aside from the Huge Fan (http://www.dansdata.com/images/bigfans/truth1280.jpg). I'd appreciate it more, I think, if it had a top fan somewhere around 200mm to balance out airflow - I know, I know, positive airflow decreases dust, but it still bothers me. For that price, y'know...

But then, most cases that aren't painted on the back bother me these days. Shouldn't've bought the Antec.

I think the the nzxt tempest is more than enough airflow for me.

my Armor is more than enough ariflow :up:
