Mine is this:


It looks okay and its fan filters are actually a huge pain in the ass to clean, but it has fantastic airflow as far as I'm concerned.
The filters are much less of a pain to clean than using compressed air throughout the entire case. I've only had my case cleaned using a compressed air machine once so far and it's clean as hell. Filters every month and a half at most.
For myself the reason the filters are so difficult is because I have a LOT of wiring I put behind the motherboard tray. The right side panel (you need to take off both to get at the filters, as far as I remember) is like a case of spring snakes when I open it and wires pop out everywhere.

So it's not so much, for myself, that cleaning the filters is hard; it's putting that damn right side panel back on :p
Oh I see, yeah I have to push some wires in when I take the side panel too. The next revision of the 900 series has more room so I've heard.

I bought a lian li PC-A70F for my new bulldozer build, but i got a dremel which i meant i got the mod bug...

it's gone from this

to this;

I call it stormbreaker (hence why it's not all clean cuts and blue paint has dark patches in parts (it was meant to be like this before any perfectionist start moaning)), the pictures were taken during the modding process so it's not complete in those images but you get the gist of how it's meant to look.






It's gone from only supporting 4 fans, to supporting 8 on the chasis (+2 on my heatsink), it has 3 temp sensors controlling a set of fans each, so far i'm impressed how cool it's running considering how quiet it is even when playing games. The only thing i hate about this case is the Hard drive mounting system, it uses rollers with a locking pin (i prefer latchs or even just screws) but other than that i love it.

Only thing i have left to do is invest in a couple of new graphics cards to replace the old (may just buy another 2 460 and SLI those instead since there still pretty good cards), watercool it all (currently aircooled till i get the graphics cards sorted) and maybe an SSD for the OS.
