***YOU CAN COOL THE HDD's*** (read below)

Pros: Big, plenty of room for excellent cable management. The VGA cooling tunnel works great!!! Don't let the "LACK OF HDD COOLING" comments scare you, the removeable HDD modules are awesome and here is how I keep my 7500aaks and raptor cool: 1. Take out the bottom fan bracket and put a Scythe SFF21F into it in reverse (so it's sucking air through the grates) 2. There are mounting points for the bracket above the HDD compartment, mount it here (Excellent placement Cooler Master!) 3. Take out top 3 HDD modules & place another Scythe SFF21F outside of HDD cmpt. as close to the back of the case as possible 4. screw it in through one of the grate holes in the HDD cmpt. with 1 screw (REALLY TIGHT and blowing toward your GPU!) 5. Flip case on side, take out filters and then unscrew bottom plastic piece 6. Screw in another Scythe SFF21F where the old bracket used to be 7. Put on VGA air tunnel, side of case and watch the temps drop on your HDD's and GPU!!!
Cons: They didn't include an extra fan bracket with the case, so I went ahead and did mine per the above statement. However, if you call Cooler Master at 1-888-624-5099 they will ship you an extra bracket for free (which I will use to remount my bottom fan)
Overall Review: I used the above mentioned Scythe SFF21F fans to replace all of my case fans and do this project(6 total). Newegg has a great deal on them if you buy six of these excellent fans (OVER HALF OFF---SHIPPING TOO!!!) and I would highly recommend using them. I took the time to write all of that out so that anyone who was considering not buying this case because of the HDD cooling rumors would not miss out on such an awesome case under false pretenses. Per Everest Ultimate, my HDD's are currently at a comfortable 27*C (seen them go to 26)
Great Case!

Pros: Sleek looks and elegant design. Window is nice for displaying those parts that you spend so much of your money on. Tool-less design is great. Comes with (2) 140mm fans. Paint and finishes are very high quality.
Cons: I've built many PCs and this case has everything covered that I can think of except, perhaps, a removable mobo tray (but that's just nit-picking, there's ample room to work inside of this case). It's listed as a sleek, silent PC and it does just that.
Overall Review: Went for a Black/Green build this go around. The front (Blue) LED pops right out. I just soldered a green 3mm LED in it's place and I'm good to go. I'm very happy with the design of this case and the folks over at Fractal. I had an issue with my power button when it came in, so I called and got Ryan on the phone right away. Super nice guy and he sent a replacement right over to me, their customer service is top-notch - I will recommend and look at Fractal first for all of my future builds because of their combination of great design and customer service.
Great Fan!

Pros: Moves a good amount of air. Cooled my case 2*C at idle and 12*C load with a 10% overclock.
Cons: ...
Overall Review: Buy at least six of these things, you get a HUGE discount if you do.
GREAT FAN!!!

Pros: EXCELLENT!!! I have 6 of these running in my Cosmos and the keep in nice and cool (Quiet too!) The packages they come in have sweet Japanese writing all over them.
Cons: ...
Overall Review: I didn't know about getting them at first because of mixed reviews on noise as my last build included using a Vantec Tornado which sounded like a vacuum cleaner when I turned it up. These are very quiet though, especially in a Cosmos and I'd say the 28 dBA is right on par.
