For anyone interested, the Case is a Corsiar 600t in white- I have named mine "Stormtrooper"
- I highly recommend this case to anyone who is wanting to upgrade their case or do a new build -
everything was so easy from cooling to space to cable management. It doesnt come with the fancy temp controller like you see on mine but it does
have one built in the case on the top, it also has 5 usb ports on top one of them being USB 3.0

that case looks REALLY awesome!

When I upgrade my system/build a new one (which will probably be in another 3-4 years, as I just upgraded the internals this year, CPU, Mobo, RAM, GPU, PSU... only kept the HDDs and SSD intact... oh and of course, the case, mouse, keyboard, monitor... which I need to change as well)

How the hell doesn't it burn up in that tiny cupboard space?

Pretty good actually, the huge fans on the bottom draw in plenty of air and are silent most of the time (filters fitted too), on a cool day the CPU can be low as 18c. I just need to invest in a pair of silent fans for the radiator (only running one and it's not particularly quiet). The case comes with padding to help with noise. Running the cables along the top and out the back seems to work and having easy access to the ports is a bonus.
edit: I doubt it helps loads but hot air rises (would benefit not being in a cupboard but, well, y'know, if it fits it sits).

@Cpt. LeChuck

To be honest, since adding a 2nd 7970 the mobo temps have gone up, what you can't see is that most of the case sticks out the back of my desk and there's a good draught of air between the open bay windows. On a hot day, Metro LL at full, windows and cupboard closed, it'll hit 55 on the mobo, then I remember to open the Windows etc. Average temps gaming under load are 30-40cpu (over a GHz overclock remember) and 40-50mobo (was about the same as cpu before the 2nd card was installed).

Can't complain :D
