That sniper case does not look great, no side fan? WTF?

1.5k and no side fan? You get 3 20cm fans with the 932, side top and front.

I just bought the sniper, it has got three 200mm fans (side, top, front) and one 140mm (rear), case really does its job well. keeps everything nice and cool. I would definately recommend it.

I haven't had a problem with USB ports getting hot and I have definately seen a reduction in temps on my GPU, but then i pretty much had a cardboard box before so...

The case also looks alot better in person than on a pic, wierd but it really does.

The big fans that come std with the HAF i find a little underpowered. My case came with two 200mm (1top and 1 front ), can't seem to figure out how to take the front one off, but the top i replaced with 2x 120mm fans which are providing much better airflow.

Also i don't know if the 922 is the same as the 932 in respect are two diff models, but mine had the option of either a meshed side ( which would have given a 3rd 200mm fan ) or the windowed model which obviously didn't. Was a bit bummed to get the windowed one since there is no fan directly blowing onto my gpu, but it does make seeing the inside quite pleasant

I would of gone for a CM 690 with the window :P It's so slick looking and has enough airflow to keep you happy.

mmmm blue lights!! i like the blueness of the storm as apposed to the red of the HAF but overall the HAF is better than the sniper. im scared though that wen i go to sleep the HAF will unplug itself and go on a raping spree throughout the girls res's on campus.

man the haf looks deadly:D

if you replace or mod (like i did) the fans in the HAF 932 with blue ones then it will look sexier then the storm right? :p
