    my mate is looking at it too. one question though.

    Why? I mean... its seriously expensive. I assume the interior is made of solid gold or something?

    I do like the look of the case but i wouldnt touch it with a barge pole tbh.

    I dont like the orientation of the mobo although they suggest its better "with hot air rising".

    Personally i dont think the case will have good airflow even with the 3 fans at the bottom.I'd say there intake is limted by the fact there is only a small gap between the bottom of the case and its feet.As for only one fan extracting (bar psu and gfx card if they have shrouds) not good for getting rid of hot air especially for the sorta of money your paying.

    Again for the money you can find better cases.

    You do get what you pay for and the quality of their builds are really really good.

    Any review I have ever seen for the raven case say they are pretty dire for air cooling and airflow.

    I would avoid. Think there was one (raven) on display in peats, if you are in dublin and want to poke at one.

    They are ridiculously long/deep though for a case.

    Well so far reviews have all been pretty positive , bar the price tag which is about 200 euro on hardwareversand?

    I mean , I'm still pretty inexperienced at this, having only put together 3 computers in total at this stage but it seems like a solid case.

    Airflow is apparently good, though yes I'd be happier if it had a second out-take fan. But, looking at the case I can't think of anything else I would change/want to modify really.
