Here it is, the Thermaltake VA8003SWA Aluminium Armour Super Tower. Were I not so limited in my choices I would have opted for the armor+ for its removable motherboard tray but installing in such a big case was actually a breeze and far easier than I thought. I actually started and finished it on Friday but had trouble getting hold of a camera because mine was in repairs (ended up with a crappy one). My previous case was actually a really good midi tower (Green 2002, a relic of the netburst P4 era) but I simply hit a dead end in expandability.
After my exams: The gpu is (finally) getting a zalman cooler, the stock fans will be replaced and more HDDs (most important) and a samsung dual layer dvd rw will be added.
Edit: and I'll put some better pics later.

Turns out the power LED had the wires reversed (Damn you TT!), simple to fix but really had me wondering (the marking was wrong). Here are better pics of the exterior in light and dark settings.

Looking good. How's the noise level?

lumo

noise level depends on the stuff you got inside... but mine is pretty silent, got the same one, will probably post images of mine too, at evening

All my components inside are ridiculously silent. The 25cm side fan is virtually silent. The only thing that can be heard is the 120mm blue LED fans that came with the case (motor noise, not vibrational or airflow noise). So I'm going to try volt modding them to 7v and 5v before I decide whether they need replacing.

If you have any questions you should create a new thread instead of resurrecting a 3 month old thread.
