The top of the case sports the same mirror finish as the rest of the case. In classic Tt style, the first thing you see is your door hiding the Firewire (1394), USB 2.0 compatible, and audio ports. If you have read any of my past reviews you would know that audio connections are important in my world. It keeps me from getting beat down by my girlfriend. However, I am starting to get bored with the tops of these cases lately; I would like to see some company out there provide us with a top mounted window to accompany our overabundance of side windows (Herrrrumm… hint hint).
The side and back of the case is standard fare, with a few exceptions. The side panel has your standard Tt adorned X window. The method for opening it has changed slightly though, thanks. No longer are you bothered with an obtrusive handle, now you are given two subtle handles. Tt also decided to add some pizzazz (yeah, I said pizzazz) to the 90mm side panel fan by giving it a nice mesh fan guard. Why on earth they use 90mm fans is beyond me, but Tt seems to be making a habit of it. In the rear of the case you are greeted with standard gear but instead of going with a smaller, louder fan, Tt included a Blue LED 120x120x25 mm fan spinning at 2000rpm. It seems that these larger fans are becoming more popular as they push more air nearly completely silent and making this one an LED fan is a nice little touch. As with the intake fan, it requires no screws to remove it, but you are limited again with your fan replacements.
