Hi, I’d just like to share my experience. Within a couple of months of getting this case (in July last year), I had trouble with the top fan. On turning on the computer it started rattling and one of the blades of the fan snapped off and went pinging around inside the rig (fortunately no other damage was caused). I dallied for a while but eventually I took it back to the shop to get a replacement top fan just after Christmas. Now, less than a year after getting the replacement fan, the same thing has happened, although I haven’t lost a blade yet…

Be wary of this case and its fans.

Hey Kristofer, can you tell me how many fan connectors there are ?

I’m gonna buy this case and a GA-790XTA-UD4 a.k.a. GA-MA790X(T)(A)-UD4P.

I wanna ’cause this motherboard has two sys fans connectors only and the case has four fans plus one that’s optional.

Thanks in advance.

I agree, I did make the purchase of this case over a week ago, I have transfered my parts from a much heavier and sturdier Coolermaster so it looked all ” FLIMSY” at first. I did take out the no-tools PCIe locking mechanism as I did not like the way it holds my cards, they still could move and that I do not like at all as I need to get inside at times. I did hav a problem with the SIDE Fan, it cracked in the middle and that would be the cheap fanblade plastic of the fan and what ever liquid they had put in theis fan so it did not run, I tried using crazy glue / cement and it is running but heck I just bought it. The case is NOT to be moved while it is up and running so I found out, if you do the TOP COOLING fan makes noise as if it is about to explode. Again cheap 230mm Fan, I did send Themaltek an email and am wondering what their reply will be. I LOVE the case even with these minor “differences”. My CPU is MUCH cooler and I like th RED FAN in front of the case. The ONLy thing I do NOT like is that these fans are not 3-pin fans so I cannot SEE or regulate the RPM of the Fans, but this is a minor issue. Over all a wonder ful case after my initial shock of the very light thin materials used. I would give it a 9 on the scale of 10. So now I want to know where I can BUY a better 230mm x 230 mm X 20mm , 800 rpm, 13 dBA and with 3-pin connector
