Has anyone got, owned, or even seen a coolermaster stacker 830, i was considering purchasing one for an air-cooling setup as they can hold upto 9 120mm fans. But at the £150 mark, i thought i would ask first, any comments / suggetions would be greatly appreciated. :D

here is all you need http://www.coolercasesuk.co.uk/showthread.php?t=1260&highlight=stacker

im a very unhappy owner of one. waste of money and space. no way to water cool it without hacking it to pieces. it has no room inside despite the huge external dimensions. it is like double glazed windows. the external panels are one inch apart from the internal. why they made it like that i dont know. you lose about 3 inches in total height by that design and the width of the case is following the same logic. basically the case sucks for water cooling. its ok for aircooling if you can handle the noise of many fans. the construction is very flimsy. not worth the money. oh and by the way if you pay the CM forums a visit you will notice that they have issues with the pci slots. mobos dont align to the pci slots properly. defective mobo trays. i dont know yet if mine has a defective one cause i dont have a mobo to put in. if it turns out mine is defective too ill stick it up the ass of the nearest CM chap i find.
