I remember not too long ago that lots and lots of our forum members had the CoolerMaster HAF models as their PC case of choice. The H500P is the replacement and you get a PSU shroud as well the ability to vertically mount your GPU. Very nice and long overdue in my opinion.

    Nice looking case.
     
    So far I haven't found any reason to change from my HafX case.  The few I've seen that appeal to me are priced higher than I'd want to spend just for the sake of something new...

    HAF 932 still in use as I see no reason to upgrade it.
    Altho I made a magnetic filter cover for the side intake
    to cut down on the dust entering the case

    I've had my HAF that I bought in 2010. Too me it's still the best case. Acouple of years ago I bought the side window for it and that made a big difference...

    Yeah, I wouldn't even consider a case without the side window where I could mount a fan.  Makes such a difference when air cooling GPU's with a side intake blowing right on them.

    I love the look of this case. I want one for my next build. Though, I hope the color is not finalized. I'm hoping they offer it in all black or white/black, similar to the Storm Stryker/Trooper.

    I just put two magnetic vent covers on the side and the top of my HAF. Thanks for the idea!

    These guys make some quite reasonably priced custom magnetic filters for lots of cases, had some on my HAF XB: http://www.demcifilter.com/c14/COOLER-MASTER.aspx

    While I really like my Carbide 400C it's not the best for an air cooled machine. I will order one of these as soon as they are released

    Quite a few things I don't like about it. HAF cases are 100 pound bricks. You make a heavy case, you need a carry handle on it. All those clear side panels will look like cheap plastic trash once scratched up.

    This accessory would look nice in it, or any case you would care to mod for it to fit

    Yea, that case looks hot but I wonder if those fans on top were added for show (bet there were) or if they will come with the case. I would be surprised if they did so I'm betting you just get the 2 200 mm fans in front and probably a 120/140 in the rear. Still looked nice with all the windowed bits and the compartments in the back to help keep things looking clean. As well as a vertical GPU mount. All in all, this is a way better case then what I have now...
     
    Which is a cheaply made, NZXT Source 530. Not quite 3 years old and already giving me issues. :(

    THIS CASE!! It looks amazing! UGH if I had not of bought my DG-87 case I would have potentially bought this. Honestly, first case to make me regret my DG-87 in the slightest. I do like my DG-87 case tho. 

    As long as your popular enough, you can get away with anything.
