Re: CM 690 II Advanced Debut JAN 10...

I hold my comments till I see some interior shots or know the improvement list, so far from the exterior shots it seems like slightly modified mesh covering and (probably) all black interiors.

They better use that top mesh to mount fans from outside instead of inside like current CM690. That'll make good use of space inside.

K62 still remains on top of my list for my next cabinet. :)

Wonder what's the fuss about! :S

The same exterior plasticky build remains with the corners rounded and so does that slot for the 140mm fan on the side panel exactly opposite to the CPU cooler.

Perhaps the interiors're may get a face-lift - a hole on the plate where the motherboard's mounted for easy removal of a cooler backplate. Perhaps some extra slots for easy cable management.

If they don't get the hard drive cage straight this time, the CM690 II is an EPIC FAIL!

Back to dreaming about the HAF. Seriously the CM690 is my biggest regret. So badly wish now had gone full ATX. Had the money, not the brains/foresight.

Re: CM 690 II Advanced Debut JAN 10...

^^ Never said it is bad. Just realized that full-ATX is much much better. Specially with Xfire, and OEM HSFs.

But yes for price and best in class - CM690 is there. True.
