HAF XB Fan

Very nice lay out. The HAF XB is such a underestimated case. The Color scheme is quite striking and the side windows are exquisite. I am so happy to see others also enjoying this case as much as I have. Clean, original and excellent cable management, I give it a 10. Thank you for sharing

Iam really satisfied with the result. I wasnt sure what it would look like in white, but in my opinion, its better in white.
