my favorite parts on how its really built with so much cooling with either airflow or liquid cooling, and the cable management is pretty damn sexy.
what do you guys think?

Looks decent, though I can't see it being the best performing case if you want air cooling.
Yeah, agreed.

Yes ati/amd basically kicked the whole x2 series so the 5959-5970 will bee the x2 of their 5800 series brothers.

did any of you guys even read the review/details on the case? tons of space, hot swap drive bays, 3 cooling zones for air cooling, also a whole back side that was built just for cable management to help produce less clutter and even better air flow, and it's not even a pretty case to oogle, it's a nice, neat and easy on the eyes.
3 Cooling zones, 2 of which are majorly blocked by components hampering air flow, and one of which has so many twists and turns and then flows through the chamber where you hide all of the cables.
Thus with each zone's "air flow" so hampered and thrown about I doubt the efficiency of it compared to some other cases.
Now for liquid cooling I'd say it looks good. Though I've never liquid cooled and don't see me starting any time in the future.

on the top of the case however it's almost perfect for a triple radiator to be mounted provided there is enough clearance, but it looks like it can do quite nicely.
that 300$ pricetag on the other hand is insane and I would never pay more then 170-200 for it at most, not when that can be better put towards better fans and such.
