Define R4 is a very popular and cheap option.

I don't like them imo.. My suggestions are to look at the cheaper Corsair cases, and a H230 from NZXT or NZXT's Source cases. Maybe a Phantom 410 if you're willing to save a little more even though you want something simple.

If that thing that i've circled in green is removable then yes sure it will fit no problem...

BTW that is an AMAZING looking case IMHO i've never seen it before but its gorgeous.

Yes. That will add extra room for the cards.

no...this case won't support any optical drives...and i would stick with your 1st choice personaly.

You have a lot of teens around here that are ''somewhat fanboys'' of the NZXT and corsair cases for some reasons but they are not any better and honestly the V9 vaporise looks like an amazing choice...i would love to be able to get my hands on one.

Check reviews on this most users who went for it claimed they've done a very good choice:
