Motherboard Tray

We saw in Thermaltake's VM3000A Skull series a tool-less motherboard tray, which features snap-on stand-offs for motherboards. We would have liked to see them implemented in their products after the Skull series, but that wasn't the case.

Instead, Thermaltake has decided to include standard stand-offs to mount motherboards. This is not such a road block since many users do not remove/replace their motherboards or other hardware on a regular basis.

The tray really has nothing else special about it. There are just enough holes to support the standard ATX form factor, which is most widely used in mid-tower cases today.

    It looks like a nice case (except for the window which is just personal taste). Were there any worries about the longevity of the paint? Cars get scratched and it would seem a glossy black finish is going to scratch over time.

    I find the power supply issue intriguing in that I had no such problems in my CoolerMaster WaveMaster case even though I installed a large Enermax power supply unit (465W). I guess the WavemMaster is an old man of a case now, but it would have been nice to see it included in the benchmarks for this comparison.
