well I am waiting for this case for a while and found a good deal I guess on amazon, it will probably be an excellent case!

Looks like a fantastic case.  Was looking at the Nzxt h2 Black myself but I think I will need a larger case to future proof myself.

What about the Fractal Design R3 cases? Emphasis on quietness also, but at a lower cost.

I was debating between Fractal and Corsair, but I think the build quality might be superior with Corsair, also the weight is very much something I factor in:

Fractal Design Define R3
Dimensions 20.85" x 8.17" x 17.4"
Weight 27.56 lbs.

Fractal Design Define XL
Dimensions 22.10" x 9.13" x 22.05"
Weight 39.50 lbs.

Corsair 550D
Dimensions 20.9" x 8.7" x 19.5"
Weight 16.5 lbs.
