Just as you’re not into the "industrial" look remember that not everyone is into the conservative look either
As to the "industrial" look of the HAF X, I agree, it's not for everyone, but functionally, the case performs very well, especially if you're air cooling your components.
If you are not into the clear windows that’s ok. As far as the "lights"…. the case only has one lighted fan, and it can be turned off by a switch on top of the case!
Yeah, I loved the clean look of the Antec P182 myself, but it grew old and out dated for my needs. Incidentally, I passed on the Antec P193 because of aesthetics, to me that's one ugly looking front side on the P193.
But yes, to me, Corsair’s 700D & 800D does look better than the HAF X, but for my needs, and wallet, it's too big and too expensive for what you get.
Example, the HAF X comes with two hot swappable bays built in. You can only get these on the 800D, and the 800D is like 249, whereas the HAF X is like 199. You also get two SATA 3 connections; neither the 700 nor 800D has them.
Anyways it’s a moot point since the OP made up his mind on what to get, and a nice one I might add :)
I just wanted to make a point.
Peace
@ kylehimself, nice case
