Mm, that looks interesting. It looks like something that Lian-Li should make, not Thermaltake. Hopefully it's nice enough quality.

My main concern would be the GPU bracket and that it works.

Sig under construction.

My concern isn't about the inclusion of it or that it would slow things down (which in theory as far as I can tell it shouldn't), but that they can be kind of finicky.

 

Also you can't have too long a graphics card. Plus you would pretty much need to have a water loop here, I think.

Yeah, I've been waiting for a Lian-Li looking case that isn't so expensive :P

Yeah, without a water loop you have all this black space on the side.

I picked one up yesterday. Haven't put anything in it yet but build quality seems good. It is quite a heavy case. Anyone else build in this case yet?
