Yea I know , that's why I tried to make airflow from top front mesh to rear fan. And there are also airflow from top rear mesh to rear fan. :)
Though room temp are high and rear fan are so slow , current condition handles this spec well.
They are Silentmaxx HD-silencer Rev2. About $20 in my country.

There are many kind of HD enclosure here , so HD enclosure market is competing each other and price may be reasonable.
This is my recent rig I finished. Silent modded.
I posted detail mod proccess. If you are interested you can see there.

Even current temperature is over 30C- here, it works so quietly. I can't hear any noise except rare small HD randam seek sound in quiet room.
If it is changed fans to more quiet ones ( they will be more pricey :p) and to quiet and cool Samsung HD drives , you will be able to get more...

Lian-li's stock fan is not quiet. I don't know whether its fan can be changed , the VGA side fan won't good for quiet PC build.. And it is said oftenly , side panel hole make more noise come directly out from CPU cooler and disturb air flow.
If you consider quiet performance , I'll recommend...
V1200 will be quiet system with sytem beeing cool. It has air flow in upper chamber , different from what Lian-li's upside down chassis that has front door.
P180 is very common in the quiet PC users. It keeps mild airflow with front door.
Are you mentioning these comment with each cases had or touched? Yes I did.
Besides, V1000 is not superior case unfortunatly but good case. Its HD noise and side and top panel vibration noise are loud. M/B plate is so flimsy (but screw hole is strong. This point is good quality of lianli)...
Easily modable , at this point , you can't cut out easily tai-chi material. Most parts are made of extruded thick alminum.....
I think these requests conflict each other , "I want a high quality case made of high quality parts" "Easily modable". Flimsy basic chassis will be easily moddable...
I think TJ07 is odd airflow case. It cant be said as Coolest air case...... :confused:
"Coolest air case" will be stacker 830 , though I think these fans are too much.
If you don't plan to carry around your case for lan party that tai-chi's weght will be advantage. Most alminum chassis, ie,1~,2~mm thickness , has noise of vibration.
Also I think these case is not for same purpose of use. 830 is almost like this case( :D )...
I don't recomend stacker very much. Stacker has many installation difficulty. I also had experienced. These are discussed in CM's forum. So that's why I recommend you getting other chassis..... :) Good luck getting new case :D
Yes I agree the strength of front panel but I meant to say about the technics of metal processing that has been used for whole chassis. More price , hevier , studier. That isn't what I want to say.
I agree with you. but I meant to say out side material. All black or silver parts which are...
I think the better technologie of sheet metal processing goes to lian-li. Processing of metal surface almite , cutting technics and bending technics are abvious. And the LL's V series side panel studiness is far better than TJ07. Inside the chassis , thickness of the material seem to be same sa...
I meant to say rear 90x2 intake and 120x2 exhasted for the rear top corner airflow is concern. Not equal fan mount also makes more noises. This is just my opinion.
The botom chamber's airflow seems to be good :)
Yes that is what I wated to say :p .
This case has no front intake mesh , so the the too much exhousted fan ins't work on purpose.(90x2:intake =/= 120x2:exhaust). Or the air will come from bottom champer and it makes tornade air flow on the M/B area :eek:
Stacker 830's edging is terrible. Not only meaning for dangerous but for low quality cutting. About this point , if you are going to pay much money for case , more better qulity case is better. In my opinion T07 will be better , if I choose from the two. :)
The peoples who I know chose this case (especially black steel model) , not stacker , said what as the reason is more better construction case. They didn't like stacker's expansion slot problem and distorted 5inch bay. Unfortunately recent coolermaster's construction quality is stepping back I...
If you care about noise , P180 is also suit your needs.(steel and hevier chassis decrease vibration noise form fans , HD , etc). And you can choise low rpm silent fan , VGA cooler
change , fanless northbridge , chaging CPU cooler etc.
If you use top for rad , all heat from the M/B , VGA , Drives ,etc except HD will go through rad. That's not
good. To make Rear fan exhausted is not good as lack of intake. So It will be good that all system will be watercooled if rad mount top.
This idea is interesting too. :)
