Hey guys,
I have been planning to build a new computer for my family. I already have my mind made up on the internal hardware but i need to know if this would be a decent case: http://www.antec.com/usa/productDeta...an=us&id=15125
It looks pretty good but the problem i have with it is will dust accumulate inside even with that size a fan?
Thanks

No, it's pretty much a horrid gimmick case.

its a sexy case !! perfect for cooling as thats what it was built for one thing to think about is dust if you dont mind cleaning once a month with brush/compressed air in a can then i say go for it..i think its worth doing that for the style !! too expensive for me at the moment :-( post some pics up when your complete? :-)
