major flaw is the offset front fans behind the bezel, as I found out!!
Apart from that the case is great |

There's another negative point and that is that the lower 3.5 drivecage has a fan.
Because this fan is placed in this drivecage the harddrives placed in this cage are pulling out more then the upper 3,5 drive cage.
If you wan't to remove this drive cage you have to be very carefull (If you have installed 2 harddrives)
When you are removing this cage then you're vga card is placed between the harddisks
Explanation
-]
- is videocard
] is two harddrives

No, actually ThermalTake and Antec both use the same chassis for these cases with some improvements, like for example the window in the PlusView 1000 AMG. The original manufactor is Chieftec/Chemning |

Right sidepanel : remove the screws and slide it out.
Front panel : Inside your case on left and right side of the front panel are 3 grey plastic clips, push them in and you should be able to take of the front panel.
