When doing my last upgrade, I considered the Thor case.
I went with the
Blackhawk instead, and loaded it up with fans.
2 X 140mm on top.
3 X 120mm in front
1 X 120 (slim) on the side
2 X 140mm on the bottom
CORSAIR Hydro Series H80i High Performance Water/Liquid CPU Cooler. 120mm in the rear
I'm happy with it!

Thats a nice looking case Muffin. Sci-fi-ish but not too flashy.
Waggs, I think my brother in law bought that case.

I have the Corsair 500R, I liked that I could mount the Corsair Liquid CPU cooler in the top of the case, as well the cable management system..

So I got my new case in yesterday and the top of it is broken. The back pegs that secure the top panel were completely snapped off. Replacement should be here tomorrow.
