Nice case for Matx dual sli system. It provides 5 slots that means we can use a slot as space between two cards. But only few Matx motherboards can provide the first and the third pcie x16 to support sli. Anyway, nice case, structure is almost like air540.
 
yummy case.
Puts to shame that dusty, flimsy, plastiky, Corsair thingy.
 
frigging cute... if i didn't had a AIR540 and wanted to do a mATX rather than a ATX i would totally jump on it... since i had a mITX build in a Node304

yummy case.

not the case of the AIR540 and the little brother in mATX form factor ... the ABS on it look all but flimsy or plastiky... dusty? well that depend on the user xD

what i really love with that Node is the radiator and fan possibility that corsair lack on the AIR540 man dual room with 2 240 2 280 possibility : dreamy (+2*140back oh my ... )
 
This case would have been my first choice, if they hadn't decided to put the USB's and power button on the opposite side of the window.
So I have a 240 now and it's pretty damn awesome little case.
 
Thanks for the excellent review. I love Fractal Design Cases. I wish I knew that they were releasing the Define R5 sooner so I could've waited a bit longer. But with that being said, I'm happy with my Corsair 760T. If I go back to using smaller cases, this will be on the top of the list of cases that I'd consider using.

On a side note, I wish you had some radiators with different thickness that you could install to give us a better idea on how they might fit or look with the main parts (motherboard, hdds/ssds, GPU) installed. You don't need to install all the other water cooling parts, just the rads. :)
