Let's take a look at the
inside of this well made case. All of the edges are folded. This is
the first sign of quality. Edges that are folded decrease the likelihood
of wires rubbing against sharp edges and eventually breaking or shorting out.
It also decreases the chance of me cutting my huge meaty paws when I stick my
hands in the case.

You have to
like the looks of shiny aluminum. Thermaltake offsets the aluminum color
with orange fans. Four of them to be exact, two 80mm and two 90mm.
Thermaltake gives you three intake fans and one exhaust fan. If you are
worried about the noise of all of those fans driving you crazy, don't. The
Lanfire comes equipped with a fan controller.

Not only
does it control four fans, but it also includes a heat probe that you can place
anywhere in the case. The LCD readout displays the alarm temperature on
top and the current temperature on the bottom. If my CPU ever got to 60C
an alarm would sound alerting me to the danger. At 60C my fire alarm would
probably go off too. You can adjust the alarm temperature to any
temperature you want. The LCD is hooked into your power supply so it only
works when the computer is turned on. Hooking the LCD to the power supply
and the fans to the controller is one of the weak points of the case.
Having the fan controller means sacrificing a clean looking case. All of
those fans create a huge ball of wires.

It will
take a lot of patience to hide all of these wires and I haven't even installed
any computer parts yet.
