Why would you you even consider spending that much on a case?

I'm really talking out of my ass here though. A wise Clocker once told me to just get the swiftech kit (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835108105) and for $140 I just may before I jump in to this beast, eh, something to think about

Not a big fan of TEC-nology.
(See what I did there?).
Too much power consumption and higher risk of condensation issues.

A TJ-07 is ideal for regular watercooling and a homebrew system would probably come very close performance-wise at considerably less cost.

I've been looking at this case for a while now...cool enough to make me overlook my aversion to Lian-li's.
As odd as the layout is (opticals), it would be perfect for my desk.
Really want to see one in person.
