I instantly fell in love with that case. How is the air flow on it? I seen the phantom had more but is the difference between them great?

I researched a bit more on the raidmax psu and found some real bad reviews. I will definitely be getting the corsair psu.

Stock airflow is crap, but what I did is replace all the stock fans (check my project log), and also if you want to maximise airflow, open the case door. Its a dream to work with though, and you can get a very clean looking rig.

And the lighting is gorgeous, especially at night
