I have fond memories of my old S500, but want something with stealthed drive bays and this Inwin C720T looks promising.

not yet...
Hello:
I have not tried it yet, but I'm hoping to -- at the price that they are selling it for at NewEgg, you can replace the fan and the PS and it still would not be overly expensive -- and if either the PS and/or the fan are quiet, then it is a baaaagain! The fan grills look to be as open as anything this side of a wire grill or no grill...
Who's gonna be first? Who can tell us if this case is good/great/indifferent?

front fan
Does it have a front fan mount. It looks like there are some vents in front but it doesn't mention anything in the specs.. The side duct looks interesting. - FG

Re: front fan
I agree with you, but that's the IW-Z720T.I300FU2AD, which has a 92mm rear fan and lacks a hard drive cage. The IW-C720T.I300FU2AD has the 120mm rear fan and a hard drive cage. I haven't spotted other differences — waitaminute, what's wrong with me?! The first one is a microATX case! I don't know if I've seen such a well-ventilated one before. Very interesting!thegrommit wrote:Looking at the pics on newegg, it doesn't look like there is a front fan mount.

Re: front fan
LOL - that'll teach me for posting in a hurry. Let us know if you get one (I'm still trying to find a local retailer that stocks Inwin).David Mitchell wrote: I agree with you, but that's the IW-Z720T.I300FU2AD, which has a 92mm rear fan and lacks a hard drive cage.
