I tend to love my cases, until a few months, then I have a list of things I hate XD Always a difficult purchase for me to make.

One thing to complain, it was hard to install a cooler beside the PSU, and the removable fan mesh gets very hard to remove once you installed that fan for better air intake.
But then again, I do intend to have this case for the next decade or so since cases as good as this is VERY hard (and expensive) to come by here in Brazil.
I've seen some pretty awesome TJs in the past month or so. But still I'd stay with the 700D.

haha , everyone says that , it really doesnt affect it , the D5 pumps are so bloody powerful , when I pictured how i wanted it I was unsure myself how the flow would be and wondered if I might need another pump but its working really well and temps are great and also super quiet.
