NZXT Launches Noctis 450 mid tower case
NZXT is happy to introduce its new Noctis 450 mid tower case. Ushering the return of bold and daring designs, the Noctis 450 marries the modern functionality of the award winning H440 chassis with NZXT's renowned aggressive design style
Complete with new floating ventilation panels, underglow accent LED lighting, and an integrated PWM fan hub, the Noctis 450 is the ultimate blend of design and function. Available in Black with Red LEDs or White with Blue LEDs, the N450 is priced at €139 and will be available throough distributors in early June.
Noctis introduces a new overlay of floating ventilation panels and a generous amount of mesh to bring you an uncompromising combination of design and function. The case comes with ambient underglow lighting in addition to NZXT’s signature I/O LEDs and the lighting switch is updated to allow for multi-step adjusted lighting configurations.
The floating panel design provides 10 times more ventilation surface area compared to NZXT's award winning H440 case. For added cooling, Noctis 450 features a PWM fan hub that can support up to 8 fans. To take advantage of the PWM fan hub, users can connect it to the motherboard to allow for PWM signals to convert to voltage signals for case fans. Users can also connect the PWM fan hub to a Kraken® product and adjust fan profiles via CAM. Additionally, the case comes pre-installed with three FN V2 120mm fans in the front and one FN V2 140mm in the rear to provide optimal cooling out of the box. Supporting both 140mm and 120mm fans, the steel top and front panels come Kraken ready and can fit radiators up to 360mm.
Noctis features NZXT's popular and award winning power supply shroud, concealing unsightly cables and allowing for effortless cable management. For storage options, two SSD trays are mounted on top of the shroud while five modular steel hard drives trays are installed in front of the chassis.
Poised and ready to take your build to the next level, the Noctis is available now for pre-order at the NZXT Armory Store in Matte Black and Glossy White for $139.99

I think the price is a "little" high but if you can wait it out it will probably drop to around 80-100 price range.
Looks cool, but man that is a lot for a mid tower case.

Maybe its just me, but I find these types of cases to look way too flashy.. I guess I just don't get the design.

If its anything like the full size version yes its a little expensive but the steel is thick and solid.

What's with those fancy looking chassis that try to copy off car's? honestly speaking I am not a fan of fancy looking computer chassis. The design of that case looks horrible, and the shape isn't very functional as well.
Computer chassis designers should start cracking and push the limits of function, not push the limits of form and phantom aesthetics. Corsair Obsidian 900D is a good example of pushing the limits of its function. (although a super tower form factor but I'd like to see innovative mini-tower and mid-towers)
