Hell, I got it for free as the previous owner said that.
It really isn't that bad when you disconnect the leds...
I watch the display, I don't wank over the build quality.
The interior is well designed, a lot of space, and modular HD bays make it easy to install and replace stuff.
Heres my current case

Made by several different brands. Essentially an ATX case made completely out of clear acrylic plastic. The ultimate challenge for those who like to organize their cables. These cases are also cheap as fuck, going as low as $50 brand new.
The only big con is that you get absolutely no RF shielding.
Current awesome case: Thermaltake Skull

Has an awesome fan arrangement (two for the processor/northbridge, one for the hard drive cage and another for the PCI/AGP/PCIe cards), six 5 1/4" bays (with one accessible with the front closed) (and two 3 1/2" bays) and space for three hard drives not to mention the whole system can be assembled without any screws. you can also lock the front door.

So, if someone breaks into my house, they can't put a DVD in my computer? Just what I always wanted.

More like "So if someone breaks into my house they can't even turn the computer on and steal all my data?"
Like a case door will offer much resistance to a burglar.

You'd think they would take the computer, not sit down and copy your files.
I don't mind the case, it's just that a lock is pointless.

Way too big for its own good, but it seems like it has some awesome modding potential, and enough room for an insane watercooling rig. :q:
It's more like if you want to keep little shits from fucking with your computer you can lock the door where the power button is.

It also prevents access to the power switch. Your parents can't find your porn/snoop when they can't even turn the computer on.

Or you could password your account?
Stop trying to find loopholes in the fact that in most cases (no pun intended), the lock is useless.

It's just a gimmick, just like 80% of the functions on todays cellphones. :v:

Great case overall. Good airflow. [i]some[/i] cable management holes. Looks sexy. I prefer the more boxy/square shape of the 900, but...
[B]Antec 902[/B]
[img]http://www.pureoverclock.com/images/news/antec902_1.jpg[/img]
The 902 has lots of great features that I was really missing when the 1200 was released. Painted black interior, top blue LED 200mm fan also with LED on/off switch, external fan controller knobs and more cable management holes.

Just a badass case. On top of my list for my next computer.

Just finished assembling my new PC, I'm so happy I bought the HAF 932 instead of some generic looking plastic case with weird blue alien shapes.

so instead of the generic looking one you went with the most overused one
[QUOTE=reapaninja;15643636]so instead of the generic looking one you went with the most overused one[/QUOTE]
Rather a decent, overused case, then some weird unknown shit that doesn't perform good.
[QUOTE=reapaninja;15643636]so instead of the generic looking one you went with the most overused one[/QUOTE]
Just because it's a good case and a lot people have it means it's overused?
No.
[QUOTE=Thorgal;15643660]Rather a decent, overused case, then some weird unknown shit that doesn't perform good.[/QUOTE]
how would you know it isn't better build quality, airflow etc. if no one uses it because they always get the HAF
Because you could read reviews.
* Not user reviews, but decent sites that actually test the performance of cases.

Why hello Thorgal, it's me Game Epidemic from Darkland XD.
Ugly.
[QUOTE=Prismatex;15645609]Ugly.[/QUOTE]
It's ugly I give you that, but it's cooling performance is epic.
I'm upgrading anyway to a new build so while I'm at it I'll get me a new case.
