So I ordered a Coolermaster 690

I see the Coolermaster 690 has a grill at the bottom of the case for the PSUs with the fan at the bottom.

/me gives that feature the Resident Techie stamp of approval :D
 
But our psu that have fans at the bottom wil suck in dust through there i think.

Not that big of a problem, just have to clean my case more often now.

Or you could just flip the PSU around...

Will it still mount correctly, though? I'm not really too bothered about dust, I keep my PC clean

No it won't. The PSU sucks air in through the bottom and expells it out the back of the case.It could cause some dust accumilation inside the PSU, but not the case.

Yes the case is quite nice. No complaints.Quite solid and heavy for that matter with all my gunk inside:D
The power and reset buttons could of been of the better variety, but it doesn't bother me too much.
IMO it's the best case in its price category(and even higher up for that matter!)

@WKJ...its a very roomy case, space should def not be an issue.

I seriously doubt if I'm going to buy that case, come to think of it... It's not that much larger than my current case, and I need a lot of room... :(
 
Nd more HD bays WKJ? :D
Come on its time to start pumping some tera's!
 
Dust wont be a problem for me, I'll just recycle the dust filters from my old case, I'll probably have to cut it to size to make it fit though :)

The only thing you have to watch out for in a case like that, is that your psu cables are long enough, before I swapped PSUs my 4pin 12v connector only just reached the socket on the motherboard.

That was an Antec P182 with a ThermalTake 680w which has since been replaced by an AOpen 700w, btw.
 
I has arrived.

Pleased so far.

Bigger than I thought
