No i meant the 3.5 are in the way too much metal there.. I like it when you can remove the unused slots.

500r and the obsidian case can do that.

Wow...nice cases. But honestly, I still prefer the obsidian, it's just that it is too expensive...

As a PROUD owner of CM HAF-932 case, I really like the roomy design. That's why (in case I'll ever choose to move to Corsair cases) I'd either choose the Obsidian 800 to replace my current HAF-932 or go with the mid-tower Corsair 650D for a secondary rig, in case I'll ever build one.

I know the H100 looks great and the bulge is kinda cool for cable routing in those cases
