Hey BudWeizer, you are right it's a Chieftec case.
I removed the mainboard tray because i wanted to get every inch of space I could get AND because with my design I had to switch door-sides. The lighttrap/intake is on the exact same height as the door lock and it wouldnt close otherwise. If you consider placing a lighttrap there like I did you wont have another choice than removing it.
I wouldnt say the case is weak now (fully assambled) but it was pretty lightweight and weak during the building phase (all doors removed, front plate removed,..) it's no wonder it feels like it will break any second. Now that I have all the pieces together again I would consider it as solid as a normal tower/case.
