Yeah mate :) haha was going to go the 800 until i seen the 900.. Probably wont be for a while though, unfortunately I've had to bring the build to a bit of a stop for a little while due to other commitments. I reckon the next parts ill get in order will be mobo/cpu, fan controller then the case.

Haha yeah true, I hate when things get in the way of PC projects! Anyway it sadly does happen. The 900D is a BEAST of a case! I was flipping up between the 650D and 800D for ages while I was researching and getting all the parts listed for my first and latest build. I ended up going with the 650D. Even that seems large on my desk. I'm glad I didn't go the 800 cause that case does seem out dated a bit today and I read that the 900 was going to be released soonish when I was buying my parts. So I went the 650. I will most likely get the 900 for my next build in a year or so, just one of those things you have to have as an enthusiast, so so many options in that case it's crazy. Looks incredible too!

That's it mate, the 900 is IMO well and truly worth the extra $$$ over the 800. Lol when i seen the video of Linus with the guy from Corsair showing it off I think i was more excited than child on Christmas day lol. Couldn't stop thinking of what i could do with that case haha.
