    I quite like the 900 remove the silly fans and you have a pretty decent case.

    I rather like my Raidmax Smilodon. Using all the fan slots, I keep a very cool case (one fan even blows directly onto my GeForce 8800GT, while a fan above it sucks out rising hot air). Its cheaper than the Antec, too, I believe, and has a very-easy-to-install hardware setup inside. Only real con is its heavy due to being made of steel. My only other small complaint is the rear exhaust fan is 80mm instead of 120mm, but given one of the side fans is (by default) an exhaust fan as well, it doesn't seem to hurt it any.

    What exactly is "silly" about 73cfm fan's with 3cooling settings provided by their own fan controllers per fan? can't knock that.if your implying the LEDs then I can't relate to your point. it's a enthusiast's/modder's/gamers case so its meant to be in your face and pretty and lit up so I don't quite get you there mate
    I could understand if you were talking about something understated but don't get you on this...

    and plus the whole point of that case is cooling so why'd you wanna remove the fans hehe not flaming just bit confused at your assumption.

    Good riddance. Wish I'd done it about a year ago.
