my buddy just bought this case and I can post photos if u want..... He had the system built, and we confused the 6000 series with the 8000 series and ended up with the mid size case. None the less, the case it beautiful, heavy and looks to be extremely efficent. I know I can speak for him in saying he'd rather have the 6000 series for there is the slide out mobo try and better cable managment, plus the addition of the bottom fans is a real plus. The mid size doesn't have these features...

No way to rotate the CNPS9700NT 90 degrees? :P
Looks like a cool "cheap" tower. I frankly don't like full towers. Sure, lots of room, but they just don't blend in nicely in the room haha.
