Here is a look at the back of the case.

So this case looks very good and would be good one to buy if your an enthusiast. It will last ages and would be very good for sound barrier. From what I have seen I will give it a 9.5 Star Rating from 10. I deducted 0.5 because there was no side panel window in it.

It will be a great case if you are water cooling. I will look forward to this. Though I will need a big table for this case :). Let us see how much popular it gets. Though it is disappointing that it doesn't not have a side panel window. I will prefer it over 800D. People like showing off their hardware through the side panel window but this one helps you generate less noise.
