    It's very large and rather expensive.

    But cases are a personal thing, I'd have a look at the Sliverstone and li lian cases as well.

    I'm not a fan of lian-li (ugly for the price range) and I just dont like the looks of the silverstone cases either. Cooling is said to be pretty good on this one?

    Re: Coolermaster ATCS 840

    Its a nice case one this is a case for life I wouldn't mind having one.

    The SilverStone Fortress looks similar but go with what you want.

    Okay... good case, but how in the name of all that uses flowing electrons though metal and silcon in order to produce complex eletronic thinking machines can a case be CrossFire certifed?
