Ok. I have them on my shopping bookmarks list, but never used them. As I'm in Jhb, I can collect from Sybaritic, ZAPS, etc.

I went with the windowed 590, and I like the fact that it's easier to mod. Less fancy bits to mess with. But do enjoy your new case. I've played with a few different cases, and the CMs are generally good to work on. Sadly, I could never affored a Lian Li, but who knows what the future holds.

And you should be able to order the windowed side panel later.
