nice case, but i have a couple of little gripes.

with the side fan on, the HSF clearance is only about 130mm.
i needed cpu cooling more than case cooling, so i removed the side fan, and stuck a Tuniq Tower 120 in there instead.
my cpu temps dropped nearly 20.C from the intel stock cooler

also only comes with 1 top exhaust fan, this didn't really bother me as i had a spare 120mm fan laying around.
but even with the stock cooler fitted, a 25mm fan would not fit in the rear top exhaust,
as you can see in the pic below i stuck it below the gpu

paint has that orange peel texture to it, but i still think the case is good

edit. this is an old pic, so i need to take some new ones

Welcome to the club j.col70 We can't wait to see some new pics of your Hades, it looks pretty cool! how did you mount the 120mm fan to the pci-e slots?
