I'm deciding which case to pick for my first build, and have narrowed it down to two choices. Either the Corsair Graphite 230T or the Cooler Master N600 (without window).

Does anyone have experience with using the N600? If so, how difficult is it to mount another front fan (I know you have to remove the front I/O connections)?
[strike]Also, does the front of the case have an actual filter? I know the mesh is pretty fine, but couldn't find any information on whether or not a fabric filter was there.[/strike] Nevermind, I found out from an amazon review that the mesh does have a filter on it (supposedly pretty good)
I've also seen multiple people saying in reviews that the expansion slot covers can't be replaced? Could anyone with this case tell me whether or not they can be replaced or not? This is my main concern with the N600.

Which case do you think I should get? They're around the same price (£5 difference between them) but I'm still not sure which I should get.

Note: I won't be water cooling or anything, but I'll be replacing the front fans of either case and adding a 200mm side intake if I get the N600.

The N600 has better water cooling compatibility and has better airflow optimization due to the large amount of mesh, but the 230T is better built and can be picked with a multitude of colors. It's your pick

N600 = Better value
230T = Higher quality (Slightly) and longer warranty period.

I was looking at reviews of the N600 recently to see if i could recommend it to anyone asking. And i do like Cooler master cases, but the built in fans at the front & needing to dismantle parts to get to them was a big put off for me. I don't like that at all, but if it doesn't bother you go with your heart, i don't think they're is a right or wrong answer.
