At the moment i'm using an Antec Lanboy case for my computer, but i feel the airflow is strange if yall haven't seen it before its not a normal case its all meshed steel. I don't quite like the look of it either. When i first saw it i thought it was an awesome looking case and then the next day i went and picked it up, but now im regretting it and wishing i went for my orignal choice of the 650d. So since its quite expensive (about 200$) so i'm wondering if anyone here has used it before and know if theres any major defects with the case before i shell out the cash for it. Thanks!
I recently bought the 650D and I'm am SUPER impressed. it comes fully decked out with fans that are super quiet and push a tonne of air. The case is rarely hot and it keeps my hd 6990 with the stock cooler at a very reasonable temp. I was even running crysis on a 40 degree celcius (104 fahrenheit) and everything was being kept cool. I spent the money and I was very happy, you may have a different experience but in my opinion, its money well spent.

The lanboy air is an inside joke among me and my friends. The case itself is fine (constuction wise) but the aesthetic looked like it was trying to pull in 12 year old Call of Duty purists.
Yeah i can see why i think it was more of an impulse buy at the time i had just seen it and was o ok this looks cool. I completely regret it now, but can't do much about it now sept buy a new one. I'll probably re use the case for a server or something down the line. I'm definitely not a call of duty 12 year old but i can see what you mean lol.
awesome, thanks for the feedback thats really what i was hoping to hear. I think the next time i make a big purcahse on newegg or amazon i'll have to get the case as well.
Silverstone Fortress FT02 is probably a better case for that money in terms of airflow (and looks, imo) but if you like the asthetics of the Corsair 650D more then there's no real competition. Both are pretty awesome cases.
Yeah both great cases, but my personal choice would still be the 650d.
