We have tried to use this case in a server rack style allotment and didn't really stand up to what it needed to do so we went with a custom design. But as to why we disliked it, the case as a whole doesn't seem to like letting cool air in or hot air out. No flow through the chassis on a consistent basis. This may be in part due to the foam in the front cover that folds down. It's better for airflow down but still not as efficient as I would like and also with the foam folded down, dust and another sediment can flow into your chassis with open cases. In addition, the crossbars will limit your use of GPU's to an extent but that won't be too much of an issue for many people.
That's interesting. I recently switch to a Rosewill server case and after all my modifications were said and done, I actually saw temperatures drop compared to my homemade open air frame. I did take the foam front off. I reversed all the fans and am using blower style cards. Air comes in the back and out the front. It's been working really well for me.
I like these custom 2nd psu mounts. I may have to try that. I have one PSU in the case and one that just sits on top - outside of the case.
