I have a HAF 922 as well. If you want to put anymore fans in on the side panel, make sure that you have the screws for it, I had to rifle through my tool box to find ones that fit. Also, it doesn't come with a system warning speaker, so you'll need to buy one separately.
 
The Haf series is a nice bunch of cases, good air flow

Personally i have the Thermaltake v9 Black edition, but i think the HAF is nicer

Yup HAF series are excellent cases. I have the HAF 932 so i have the bigger full-tower and its amazing. Pretty much has the best airflow of its class but yea, on the HAF 922, you might wanna pick up 2x120mm fans for the side panel and you will get the same airflow as the HAF 932.
 
when i invite people to my house the 1st thing i say is "hey check out these sexy led fans on my pc case"
 
lol i was thinking about taking my 2 12" blue cathodes and putting them in there idk if i want to though D:
what do you think?

sure, it would just look blue inside with a mix of red.......my GPU fan is actually blue led so i have like a faint blue glow inside my case while the other fans are red
 
this is why im upgrading cases

^^ so messsy and no room to put cables/cable management didnt help much after i tried for almost a hour to fix cables so i gave up on it lol
 
Well, TBH, the cable management on the 922 sucks. The bottom mounted PSU creates a huge cluster of wires right in front of the main intake fan, and you have nowhere to put them.
 
its kinda to late to change my mind about cases cause i already ordered it from Newegg.com and its already been processed just waiting to be shipped from newegg facility.
 
Does the HAF 922 have the mounting plate for the motherboard? My Solano has that and it does wonders. That combined with a "cable storage box" (basically a little snap to close plastic container) that came along with it, makes my case look sweeeeeeeeeeet.
 
2x120mm will give more performance but at the cost of noise. A 200mm will be quieter but won't push as much air as 2x120mm

The cable management on my HAF 932 is really good......the only cables that show is the power cable to my mobo because its too short to be routed.
 
Ok, so tomorrow il have my case and all so i will be taking my parts/hardware from this build and be putting it in the Cooler Master case w00t so i wont be on tomorrow, or Thursday(Depends when i get the parts cause there going to my other house and il have to go pick it it).
