Inverted ATX Case, Your thoughts?

Go to solution Solved by TheKDub,

The motherboard would just be upside down.

Hey so im thinking about upgrading my PC Case since I have a Cit Mars B and its incredibly loud if you leave the side fan on, so I was wondering if this was any good?

Only thing putting me off is it being inverted, would you simply just have to rotate the motherboard when you install it or would i need a brand new motherboard?

any help is appreciated!

 

Thanks!

Eh, I'd get a different case TBH. I think Silverstone has a case you can invert the layout with.

Im not looking for inverted in particular, I just want a Black case with blue LED's to go with my setup haha, and this one looked awesome, just wanted to see if it was gonna be any harder to build. Not built inverted way before

A little more expensive. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Corsair-Graphite-Compact-Windowed-Computer/dp/B00EWHOIDC/ref=sr_1_4?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1409449698&sr=1-4&keywords=230t

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.
