I have no idea exactly what model... last time I tried to find it I found a few cases that had parts of mine, same vents on one, same glass on another, same front on yet another... I guess mine is an oddball. I think its early 2000s. I got the thing from dumpster diving a while back, same place I got my 8800GT
oh and the side 80mm fan is actually on the outside of the case due to clearance issues with the cpu cooler. I prefer cases that have open fan ports, I'd rather use the metal grilles on the fans. Seems to be the best in terms of airflow, though dusting from time to time is needed. I had planned to get a 80x160mm rad for the back of the case and watercool the cpu but the cooler I have now just works so well I don't see the point atm.
I'll probably keep this case as long as I possibly can. I've got a few plans for it later on but for now I like it, and its fairly quiet considering I have eight 80mm fans in it lol
