 | Out back you will get your first glimpse of what makes this case unique. While at the top of the case you see two fan grills, this is not for the power supply. If you look closely, you will notice the plug for the power supply is at the bottom of the case, but there are no fans down there. This is because the power supply is not at the back of the case, but rather at the front. - The Review |

| I just don`t get manufacturers why they still use 80mm fans and not 92 or even better 120mm cuz they are more quiet than those small 80` and not even to mention better air flow with less noise... |

I think its size issues. and form factor maby 2 80mm fans can direct air better than 1 120 could. _________________ Ignore this^^ |

but they are restricted by the form factor there is only so much you can do to improve airflow on a pre-desgined form factor. i personally like 80mm i hav e a chieftec matrix with 5 fan ports on it and i like having control of wich go where and how fast they go. _________________ Ignore this^^ |

Oh come on... there are a lot of case`s which have 120mm fans "integrated" ... so thats not a big problem to solve right? If you like noisey case be my guest and use 5 80mm fans...  |

fanbus helps with the noise part. and i like being able to configure with fans need more power/noise. 120's are great but i personally like 80's _________________ Ignore this^^ |

well I like to control my fans 2 -> I use Zalman ZM-MFC1 and it kicks a$$ (literally) and I am sure that my noise level is much lower...  |
