    speaking of WC cases. A few months ago there was a contest of WC case designs. Any news on that front?

    I'm asking around, no replies as yet.. I'm interested to see how it pans out as even though I didn't win, I put a sh**load of time into it!

    Re: case
    Good design concept, that front fascia is bleaugh though!

    ATX looks ridiculous in there, at least with air cooling. Not sure I'd ever want something that massive though!

    Finally a case you can buy in 2011, knowing that it will be able to take the 2ft long budget gfx cards and 5000w power supplies that will be needed in 2015...

    ..bargain...:))

    Jesus Christ! Will I have to take the lounge window out to get it into the house?!

    Awesome stuff.

    would have to buy a bigger house to fit that monstrosity - everything is getting smaller.

    Cases are like caravans - too big and you look like...

    Its a great case, my build is nearly finisted in mine (using watercooling).

    Oh, and if you look on their facebook there a photo of it housing one of the Gene motherboards...

    I could fit my hardware in that and rent out the extra space as student accommodation.

    Nice from a practical standpoint, but the case is hardly a stunner... hopefully something some modding love could fix.

    Reminds me of the original Cooler master stacker.
    Masses of space inside but I prefer my main radiator to be at the bottom of the case, the TJ07 is safe.
