agreed, who would use usb on top ? Front is the best place for it, maybe a little lower.
It's fan colours and nice layout impressed me My 2nd rig needs a case, maybe this one
Edit : I liked this case so much, i already put it in my specs

I have the soprano .

The front fan has dust filters, and is set up so that it really doesn't move that much air. The PCI bracket is weak, and you'll find yourself replacing it with trusty old screws.

However, remember the spacers, don't scratch it, and you'll love it. dual 120mm fans are wonderful, that hard drive rack is nice, the tooless installation of everything except PCI devices is brilliant, and most of all the case is VERY QUIET. You won't regret buying that case .

Try 9 120mm fans WITH toolless installation for the fans

thx 4 the info , as per it's price it's awesome Aren't it's fans orange ? Quite matches the black themed case. It also has a side panel, which makes me go4 it. I'll surely get it, but after a week...w00t, soprano coming

I WAS thinking about that case, but so much for a case seemed unfair, somehow...
I always see the price/performance ratio i.e nice hardware that are adjusted to their rightful prices.

look, shutup and let me cry in peace, ok ?

 

[BXtreme]

ok, as you wish

ok, as you wish

take a look at the aerocool aeroengine 2
great case, and great airflow

 

[Batou1986]

i recently built a C2D system for a friend with the black soprano case with no side window it looks nice and is very roomy and super light has decent airflow only thing is its fragile if i where to say drop a 2 liter on it it would leave a huge dent and its shiny paint takes to fingerprints and smudges real well which is why i like the matrix case i got cause its .20mm steel and its matte paint and best the whole front is meshed filtered steel which means GREAT airflow

 

[craigo]

it has been my experience that the cheapest coolermaster will be better built than the best thermaltake....having said that i have never owned a Tt case (a few mates have though)
try and get your hands on the cases in question at your local retailer (then purchase cheaper wherever) to get a feel for build quality and go with what you can live with day to day.

Here's my case budget though and constraints-
Under 100$
Side panel-Yes
Brands- Cooler Master, Thermaltake, Antec.
Beautiful- A must! lol
With any PSU-Yes (i'll exchange lol, i.e 400w give => 600w take=minimal charges paid)
Any reckons ?
My current rig has a 600W psu, but it's dying I'll choose psu later.
