MountainMods U2-UFO

Anybody have any experience with this case?

I'm looking to buy one for a pretty extreme watercooling setup, as it can hold a Thermochill 120.3 right where I want it (in front), and can do pretty much everything I need it to.

The only drawback to this case (huge isn't one), is that it does look pretty heavy and not very portable. This isn't a big problem for me as the mobo tray is removable, and it'll be sitting on my desk for the next few years (it'll last forever), but I'm just curious to see if you guys have any great or horrible experiences with it.

Thanks!

I've handled one first hand, the aluminum felt a little flimsy but I beleive teh newer ones are steel. Overall it had pretty good built quality to it but they arent cheap and personally I find it rather ugly, but thats a matter of personal taste. Good luck if you buy it and I hope your not planning on moving for a while, its easy to fill it up knowing you have eth sapce to accomodate anything, next thing you know you'll have a 12 drive raid setup.

Looks cool. I'd go with the Optimax series. They look like a better case than the regular U2-UFO.

Eh, I like the part about having a 120.3 up front...but my next PC-70 mod eliminates the need I have for one...although a HDD cage would be nice...

It's incredibly large. That's good in some cases but bad in others.

like T & A
Big T = good
Big A = bad, very very bad

Big A shouldnt be confused with @#$%'n A which is considered good or agreeable.

PS get rid of that FX-55 yet?
