    Take great case + Improve = Awesome. Not enough to make me replace my R2 or R3, but I know what the next system is likely to arrive in.

    ​Still lacking a window - an option would be nice.

    Just watched the whole video and I have no idea what you are on about? Good review imo, was looking at getting the R3 for uni, now I'll probably be getting the R4 .

    I've seen a US based retailer listing the R4 as available with either a standard side panel or a windowed panel. Given that Fractal have announced that a windowed panel will soon be available for the R3, they must surely do the same for the R4 shortly.

    I've just ordered a standard black R4 myself, with the intention of getting a window panel as/when they become available.

    Just bought the R3

    Happy with it though and the R4 box is a lot bigger than the R3.

    Oooh, a fair bit cheaper than competitors, any idea when the white model is coming in?

    Yeah the loose grommets were a pain when building, apart from that a great case. I've not long had the R3 as well, feel slightly miffed a new version is out already! Ah well, such if life.
