Just like the CoolerMaster Cosmos C700P (http://www.coolermaster.com/case/full-tower/cosmos-c700p/
It allows the motherboard to be on the other side of the case.  This allows the window to be on the right hand side of the case and still show off the internals.

this can also be done by turning any window case upside down.

But the motherboard would be on the wrong side, and would therefore only show the back of the motherboard.  Invert-able cases allow the motherboard to be on the other side.

Invert-able cases allow the motherboard to be on the other side of the case.  An example is the Cosmos C700P (http://www.coolermaster.com/case/full-tower/cosmos-c700p/)

no , the motherboard is on the opposite side when upside down.

it a pretty common mod to flip cases over  that look the same whether right side up or upside down to move the side the parts are displayed on.
