I got that exact same case, except it's branded Hantol and it's got a huge (250 mm) and silent fan on the side instead of 2 120mm fan slots.
You forgot to mention that you can install a 120 mm fan in the back aswell as 2x80 mm.
The front 120 mm fan mount can be moved up and down, or totally removed.
The slot with the 3.5" adapter (easily removed) can be used for optical drives too.
Only real con for me was the PSU "support" wich i had to bend down and forced me to remove the PSU's fan grill.

Aside from that the airflow is nothing short of amazing the 250 mm fan is in the perfect place blowing all over the motherboard and even with a 120mm fan in the back + the PSU both running at 1500 rpm, air is forced out of the front mesh! That is just to make you understand how much air that fan moves, still managing to be very quiet. I think a front fan would be unnecessary in at least 80% of the situations.
Aw and consider that the disks will benefit from the outgoing air's flow, and they dont go over 30 C (speedfan) after a couple of minutes of max stress, i didn't test them longer since i really don't make a stressful use of my disks.

Regarding water cooling installation, you could use the Thermaltake bigwater 760, it takes just 2 5.25" bays, maibe add another 5.25" radiator, it surely is not some top of the line WC but still doable, and you'd still have 5 bays to use for HDs or optical drives.. And the big fan would keep the motherboard cool without using those noisy, puny blowers over the Voltage Regulators or the NB.

Edit: the front panel USB connectors do work, It just looked like they were too thin but they were perfectly ok.

Ok, here's a few pix of the variant with 25 cm side fan.













P.s.: I tried to keep image size to a minimum, plz suggest me a different size/resolution if this is too much.. Or maybe i can post bigger pix?
P.p.s.: Feel free to ask for a picture taken at a specific angle if you need it, but the case, except for the side panel, it's identical to the ones owned by Mitrepooc and Nova

Looking very good there Kelainefes
Thanks for sharing
It looks very roomy , the fan guards look well, nice touch.
Sorry to ride my luck , but a shot toweards/showing the drive bays would be great if you could manage it.

Thanks

Thank my dad for the pic quality, his camera cost more than my pc
The CPU cooler is a Thermalright SI 128 SE with a SilenX 120x38mm fan on it.
