A very interresting survey.
I use to own a Corsair 600T, i have also had 800D, but it was simply too much work to make the 800D work with my needs.
Now that said, the 900D, i like some of the features, but others, well i simply hate, and find useless.
I am that one in a million.
I dont use 5.25 bays, i dont use 3.5 bays, but i do use 2,5, SSD's and normal 2,5 HDDs.
Now that said, i am a watercooler. The 900D simply did not match my needs, it was too big, and i hate the looks of the double split side. But the ideas are great, and i know that ever so many people LOVE that case.
On the other hand, first time i saw the Phantek Enthoo Primo, i fell in love. The fact that i could fit the 480 monsta in is with push pull, and have my PSU split away on the back was something important for me.
Now in the survey i did pick Phantek as my option for the best cases, but this is as far as the layout. The build quality is so far behind Corsair, i often feel sad that Corsair arnt the people behind the Primo.
In the perfect world, i want a case to fit 2 or maybe 3 of alpha cools monsta rads. I often find that the top of the case is where the problem is. Make more space! We will use it! If i could fit a 4x 140mm 80mm thick rad with push and pull above my motherboard i would be happy, but in most cases, one needs to place the top fans on the outside, which simply looks ugly as hell.
I could go on for ages, the perfect case wont ever happen, as we all want different features, but maybe a skeleton DIY kit from corsair would a great idea. With option for pure rad and no 5.25bays in front, or option for bays, depending on the users needs.
If i had the time, i'd install Inventor and draw away, but the sad part is, i feel it would be time waisted as i dont have the money to get the case made.

Made my reply :)
Hope that you will make a case that is super small like 250D but MATX and still can house 1 or 2 240mm radiators it doesnt matter if it gets tight!
I just got the 250D and I absolutly love it! keep going in the direction :)
Check my scatch computer case for a school project (spoiler) i used a lot of the measurement from corsair 250D

Survey filled.
My perfect case:
760T style
Replacement vented top cover.
Big enough for 60mm 360 rad with push/pull in the top, and at the same time 80mm 360/480 rad with push/pull in the front.
NO 5,25" bays
Kinda like the enlarged love child of your 760t and the NZXT H440.

get rid of 5,25! they take up a lot of space that can be used for cooling.
Survey answered ;)
Survey answered ;)

I find myself in a place where my 3 5.25" bays in the cosmos 2 is just not enough. I would love to have 5, then I could install all the fan controllers and resevoirs I need. I also still use a CD to burn music for my car, and I know many who do. Scrapping 5.25" would be a bad idea...

Men jeg gider ikke have et ekstern drev, ej heller en ekstern blæser kontrol.

Så brug PWM fans? 😛

Did the survey...
I answered ATX board, but I am not planning a build right now... and there is no reason why it might as well end up being a mITX; it is not like I have any use of the slots in my surrent motherboard, besides the one for the graphics.
Still spinning my optical drive to rip my music CDs, blu-ray, HD-DVD, ... for my server and the occational burning of a distro and other things

Jeg kan ikke køre 13 PWN blæsere fra mit bundkort. Og jeg vil også have mine blæsere på 100%, blæser kontrollen er der blot for at være det, ligesom alle de blæsere er der bare for at være der 😉

#1 - I will forward your thoughts and feedback to our case guys. :)
#2 - Really cool project, saw it at Bit-tech a couple of days ago. :)
I will take all your comments and forward them to our productions guys aswell, thank you! :)

Done.. nice survey..
I think i agree with a lot of people in saying that the 5.25" is a waste of good space for at front mounted radiator. IMHO i would love to see a case that is specific for one board size only. allowing to only have grommets in the MB tray where it is necessary would give the it a lot cleaner look.
