I also have this case and i love the look of it, and that hard drive dock up top is def worth it I'm using the corsair h60 and max temp was about 57 @4ghz. It is alot quieter than my Spedo case, smaller too, surprisingly for a full tower.

A hard drive dock on top doesn't automatically make a case worth buying. The Cooler Master CM 690 II has a hard drive dock up top, and isn't nearly as gaudy as this.

Wile EA hard drive dock on top doesn't automatically make a case worth buying. The Cooler Master CM 690 II has a hard drive dock up top, and isn't nearly as gaudy as this.
I'm not saying a hard drive dock is why I purchased it, couldn't me more far off. I am not one of those ppl who buys something thinking about what others are going to think, I buy to appease me and furthermore, I def don't like to have what I think everyone else's gonna have. I already have a case in which I think has the best cable management out there and looks sleek(but heavy as hell) in the TT SPEDO...

On another note this case is somewhat on the quiet side in comparison to that huge side fan on the SPEDO the lights are not as bright but still effective and overall the build quality is better than what most would say about a case that has "so much plastic". The only plastic enough to annoy some users is the front...which IMHO is minute. Everything in the case is easily accessable to perform any task, my 2 main gripes are the room left on the motherboards side panel to rout the cables could have been a little wider(a problem that almost all case manufacturers have) and finally the main side panel I wish the open was like my SPEDO.

Ow man, this case bought back epic montages of nostalgia - Its like a cross beween a HAF, a face down Antec 900/902 and face of one of the cheap ass cases that Xclio used to make back in 99 or 01 but with small holes! its like someone went at it with a 1/2 scale M2HB Browning machinegun

entropy13OK, let's put it this way. Both the 800D and Chaser MK-I are ugly.
I dont see how you find the 800D ugly - its looks are quite plain and minimalistic its no where as near as artsy and doll'd up as the Chaser MK-1.

if you find the 800D ugly then you must find the Fractal Define R2, R3, XL and pretty much all of Lian Li's cases ugly too as they are all roughly based on the same simplistic and modest style/design albeit with or without the sidepanel

Hey, far be it from me to tell you what to buy. If you like gaudy looking cases, buy gaudy looking cases.

983264Personally, the case looks great, but please, CAN THEY REMOVE THE MULTI COLOR MODE?! It has an Integrated LCS, and the Blue, Red, Green and off modes are a good option, BUT! The Single color flash mode makes the case look like a Christmas tree, and the Multi Color Flash Mode makes it even uglier... :nutkick:
But, what if your colorblind?:nutkick:
