I saw one of those at my last LAN a week ago. Very nice case with loads of potential.

[just a noob]

I like it, but $160 for a mATX case?
Hmm, now that I look at it that's a full size board :p

i wana know what you can fit in there.... if its anything like the 700D it will be 5mm short of most good ideas you have :)

Probably more like 5 inches short....

Im going to attempt watercooling a 600t limited edition. i happened to rma the one i bought cause the fan controller failed and they just sent me a brand new one so since i have 2 i think imma mod the new one and see if i cant make a 420 rad fit in the top after i cut out most the plastic. btw the new corsair cases are better then the old ones but the new ones are of the smaller variant. hopefully they update there old higher end models with the features of the new ones. BTW 200mm fans suck a fat one and dont move anymore air then a 120mm fan, maybe less. im sure theres less pressure created by them.

I have thought doing the case, I love the white and black, but I think it would be too small and a cluster fuck n balls.

It's actually not that small. I managed to fit an EATX in it with plans of W/C

if i had a choice i would get a different case now. it does havesome nice features but other features just suck. its actually rather large inside but they screw it up with the plastic case and the way they put it together. im gonna be doing alot of dremeling on this bitch to get the rad to fit in the top of the case but luckily the harddrive bays can be moved just about anywhereinside the casefreeing up quite alot of room in the front for pumps and a res. but theres better cases out there for the same money or less. imo the 600T should be priced around $110-125.

See, that's what I like about the HAF-X, silent fans, decent air flow, and you can keep the 2 200's on top and mount a 360 rad at the bottom making it a push/pull exhaust, and make the back 140 an intake (even though I would change it out)...then you have a side 200 and a front 230(?)...

Granted it's not a kick ass case, but the price seems decent. No crazy modding needed...
For my first WC build, I figure modding the PSU is a good start, and that's about it.

well the plexiglass side panel of the 600t limited edition(white) comes with a mesh for the side panel that can take a multitude of fans, but the top 200mm fan can only hold 2x120mm or one 200mm, and the front cant take anything other then a 200mm unless u like zip ties in your case. btw 200mm fans suck. ive bought every type i could find. i have the nzxt 200mm(really190mm), the stock fans which are horrible and noisy, and an antec big boy which is what im using now on the top fan( which barely fits and i can imagine depending on the mobo wouldnt fit in lots of cases) my front fan is still the nzxt which moves great air but came with a bad bearing and it makes a clicky noise at certain rpms(which according to reviews seems to be the norm). the only 200mm fan that fitsi in the front is the nzxt or the stock 200mm fans because of the moulded plastic they place there to allow u to mount the harddrive bays on top of it. i personally wouldnt recommend this case to anyone for the money it costs. the Haf-x is a great case but i just cant stand the styling they use on those but others love it. definetly has alot more options then the 600t. the only 200mm fan i would buy again is the antec big boy. it moves decent air and is quiet, when i say decent its equal to about a 140mm fan, so still pretty shitty
