Love the case. Ordered it the first couple of weeks it was out.
Luckily, Mine was not scratched when I received it.
Extremely easy to set everything up. Plenty of room.
Temps with all the 120 fans are great.

Cool deal Hawk. The one part that interests me the most about the Tempest is its top mount for a water cooling radiator. It seems like it'd be a sweet case for a liquid setup.

So Sorry CB,
Very nice review bud.
I was so engulfed in my own world after reading it, I just went right into how much I liked the case.
Please forgive my faux pas Sir.
NP Keebs, Glad to help.
Buddy J, Yepper, It definitely looks good for a liquid system.
Rubber grommets where the lines can go through the back and the two 120 fans where the cooler would set on top.
Lots of space for hoses.
One thing I didn't mention is it's extremely quiet compared to all my other cases.

My room mate has this case and he seems to like it a lot. It is very quiet and looks nice as well.

It is actually pretty quiet. I didn't mention it in the review (mostly because my standards for case noise are unfairly high), but it was quieter than the control case with two generic fans.
