I think I want an unboxing of this from Linus even though I've seen the sort of in depth review from OC3D already.

Looks like an awesome case to me. The Window really helps make the case look much better than something like the H630.

 

The lack of the front 5.25" bays is a nice change since it just means the case is different in a way that adds variety to the market for cases and might inspire others to do the same with their cases.

Other than the large NZXT showing through the window looks really good.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

pretty much, 2 bays would be nice even if you get the option to completely close it with solid 2 bay sized panel or something like that

What kind of assumption is that? I use an optical drive, my copys of Battlefield 4 and Singularity are on disks and my pre-order of Titanfall will be on disk because the Orgin store is so overpriced. I also watch DVDs on it. I am pretty sure more people have optical drives than those who do not.

What's that mobo lol. They look amazingly spectacular, though as said before, it's a shame there isn't at least one 5.25" bay. 

Maybe instead of having them on the front they could be on the top?! That would be super neat on this case.

Given the size of the case its a surprise they didn't squeeze one in

Same for me , I always find it strange when people say "no one uses them any more", what if I get a CD or a DVD as a present , or I need some older / more obscure software... plus as you said lots of games are on disks.

I know the 'cool' thing to do is not have an optical drive, but personally, I don't want to get stuck in a situation where I need an optical drive and don't have one.  I still have a machine with a 3.5" floppy drive just in case...

 

Better to have and not need, than to need and not have.

 

For that reason, I won't get this case.  Looks nice, however, I don't like NZXT's use of a lot of plastic either.  This one is better than most of theirs though.

Yes. 

 

I would love to see more cases without any external bays or full towers with only 1 max.
