Probably going to be the loudest case ever...well, they are 200mm+ fans, so I don't know maybe. Not my cup of tea though.

Not even close...with the fans all running, noise levels are very acceptable.

It looks ok, I was kicking myself for buying a 922 after I heard there was a new HAF on the way. But after I seen pictures, I'm happy I got the 922. This case comes with a lot of extras, so for people not modding, it's a great choice.

Went and read a couple of reviews that, until TPU gets one, at least gives me a good idea of what this case is like. Really like what they did over the previous generation HAF in regards of exterior appearance and the PSU shroud is a really nice touch but not everything is perfect at least for me.

If they make a compact model, and the Antec Dark Fleet cases are still not out, that chops two of the 5.25 bays to bring it down to a more manageable 18-19" height, adds a bottom filter for the PSU fan, makes a complete side-window without the fan intake, and lowers the price down to the $120 to $150 range they'll have a killer mid-tower case that will blow all the others out of the water including their own Sniper line.

I doubt you will see a small version, HAF = High Air Flow, that and small are hard to be synonymous. Plus, CM's top end cases, even the mid towers are always a bit large.

I love my HAF 932, but would definitely pick this up. Honestly, I just want the 800D :)

That would be odd considering that after they made the HAF 932 they made the HAF 922 which is the mid-tower version of the original. Besides, a girl can hope right? ;)
