GameMax Introduces Titan Silent 2 Chassis

Sure I also have HDD's still,, hell I am actually making a VM nas etc just for fun and using them for that....but I also know that if I would get serious with that stuff you would not stick with HDD's, you would get SSD's, faster and they use less power, it just makes much more sense for the enviroment, but also my problem is not with the harddrive bays (despite them taking up too much space if you are going for ssd's), its with the 5.25 inch bays, the CD Rom drives bays, who still has any use for that let alone 3 of the dang things....

EDIT, ah I see now, my bad, I typed 3.25 inch when I meant 5.25 inch lol
The cost of going SSD vs HDD is not viable for anything more than around 10 tb. Some of us need more storage than that. Hence why HDD is still king.
 
Youre missing the point of the case, not everyone wants a plain box
and? don't buy it
if version 1 wasn't sold why is there version 2 ... ? there are enough people that like plain cases
this case is perfect for a NAS build, plenty of space, ventilation and 3.5" drive bays - that's why I bought it in the 1st place, and the price was quite right
 
Looks a lot like the Phanteks Enthoo.

$80 for a Full tower is academic.

Yep.

I seriously like this type of case for it's space and storage options. I'm addicted to excessive storage, so something like this makes perfect sense for me. But, yes, I'd prefer a little more ventilation as well, and maybe a little more width would not be too bad either. For now, I'll keep this one in mind....

To pull 5.25s out would make it like the rainbow vomit cases which are plain boxes.
 
I finally found the case listed for sale on Newegg. No where else in the States is it listed as a possible purchasing location (according to Gamemax website), so I have to make due with Newegg if I wish to get one. And it only took 5 full months since the news broke about this case, to actually find it available for sale because I've been looking every couple of weeks since this topic was created.

What upsets me is the double the price of the case it is listed for on Newegg. At the moment Newegg has it listed as "on sale" for $114.98, but the normal price is marked at $159.99. So much for a $79.90 MSRP as listed in the original post.

I'm hesitant to purchase this case (or anything, for that matter from Gamemax) because the past few months I've sent out an email about every 4-5 weeks asking if the case was available for purchase and I've only been met with silence. I've scanned through my spam email numerous times as well to see if their responses got dumped there, but nope, nothing. Not a single response from one of the three emails I sent to customer service. I'd hate to purchase something from them, find an issue and get zero response from them if I had to setup a RMA.
