Comment:
Fantastic airflow and easy to install most components(see cons). My only true con is that the difficult drives do not snap in so it makes it a bit tedious swapping tricky drives. The front cover has to be removed in order to additional in unlike most situations I have had where you just had to get rid of the side panel and snap in the challenging drive. The fans are a bit loud but prevalent sense says they would be as large as they are.

This case is a incredibly sturdy and well built case. Thumbscrews are high high quality and every single minor detail is to my liking. Fans provide excellent airflow. I like the built in fan controller but wish it controlled much more than just the leading and rear exhaust fans. None

AZZA Solano 1000 Black/Black Computer Case With Side Panel Window
Comment:
The case is built sturdy, but nevertheless fairly light, and the window on the side is a nice perk, but nonetheless mainly there for novelty (Which isn't a poor thing). But the case really shines exactly where it counts the most, in space efficiency and in cooling. The case's interior is roomy sufficient to fit virtually anything you would want comfortably; So it get points there.The cooling in this case is beyond exceptional, it is where the case truly shines, Even with a Radeon 5770 and an AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1055T Processor and 8Gigs of GSKill RAM, all OC'ed the case nevertheless could be used as an air conditioner, and this is all only with stock fans (Or heat-sinks only in the RAM's case) on all the parts. The Cons the case has are few and far among. It doesn't bother me but the fans, when on max, do make a small noise, but even with the computer proper next to my head I can easily get to sleep at night with out turning them down. So be warned if you are a light sleeper but otherwise I wouldn't truly call this a con. The LED also cant be turned off, but again that doesn't bother me, so be warned if you will need utter darkness to sleep.There is one Con that I wouldn't say is tolerance dependent, and that is the lack of supplied Dust filters, prior to I got motivated and created some homemade filters, which was rather the feat, I was clearing dust when or twice a week. Supplies: Get's one egg here for getting well built but nevertheless light.Quiet: Minor noise but not enough to keep from receiving an egg here.Cooling: Usually I would only award 1 egg if a certain feature met my expectations, but this case so exceeded my expectations it gets 'egg insurance' in the for an additional egg, so two eggs here.Space efficiency: Has space for every little thing so get an egg here.Extras/Other(Windows, Filers, and so on): The window is nice but not nice adequate to offset the lack of dust filters So it earns no egg for this category.Overall, the ideal case I could recommend. The case might not appear like an important element of the computer, but rather to the contrary improper space and heating can lead to shortened lifespan for all the other component and cost you a lot of funds. As such, I recommend this case very to any individual building a pc.Five out of Five Eggs.

Very quiet, my 20/dbs fan is prob. the loudest thing in the case and 20/dbs is a quiet fan.Really low temps, hitting about 8c less with very good airflow.easy access challenging drive case, men and women mention that you have to "remove" the mobo to get the challenging drive out, in reality if you READ the instructions, the front face plate comes off fairly straightforward and have thumb screws for tool-less removal.overall sturdy well put together case.cable management behind the mobo mounting plate.opens from both sides via thumb screws for effortless installs such as cpu heatsink that demands access to the back of the mobo for the heatsink mounting bracket. kind of large but good for a floor unit as th I/O panel faces up for effortless access.fits limited cpu heatsinks, i would say you have about 150mm clearance, take measurements of your HS cautiously. as stated, when you take out a external slot on the front panel, the clips that hold in the panel cover are Quite sensitive and break easy, even handled gently they will break so if you can steer clear of taking out a panel, do so. worth each penny as lengthy as you read the directions and install every little thing accurately.

The case is as stated but I'm utilizing it for other factors. The case came with a incredibly be dent on the side with the window. This is not a ding on NE as they sent it on time and without delay. I would have sent the case back but I left for vacation soon afterwards. Due to the fact it is not for show it will server its purpose.

Comment:
High airflow case, but also quite very. Extremely excellent cost (with rebates) for the case. Watch out if your heatsink is huge, or if you strategy on mounting a push/pull rad in the rear exhaust. The 230mm side fan can interfere with these (I had to cut the corner off one of my fans to fit push/pull + rad, absolutely nothing important, but it's an inconvenience).Cable management could be better, there are pre-drilled holes for cables behind the motheboard, but there isn't extremely considerably space. If you try to stuff some of the thicker cables or power adapters behind it, anticipate the side plate to bow out a bit. The HDD bays aren't rather as effortless to eliminate as you'd believe because the holes don't quite line up. I needed to use a screwdriver to loosen and put back in about half the screws.

Cons:Can't fit processor coolers with huge rads on them.

Pros:The Quality and cooling is amazing for its price.Fans to keep Hard drives coolside fan to cool Video CardsFits I believe almost any motherboard.Looks great!
Comment:
The over quality(Sturdy and doesn't fall apart after opening it 100x) and amount of cooling it provides for it's price is perfect.It doesn't get 5 stars because that's for HIGH end cases.This is imo the best case for price for a budget PC.

-fairly quiet... properly, quieter than i expected lol, i can't hear it if i have anything else running and its proper next to my head-attractive LED fans on the front, five fans in total-super roomy, my enormous msi gts250 gfx looks tiny and frail in it-eight hdd trays, count em, the bays also have intake fans directly connected to them (three dive bays on top for dvd drives and other factors i didn't need to have)>>>>>>>>>>READ THIS<<<<<<<<<THE DRIVE BAYS ARE REMOVABLE FROM THE FRONT.LOTS OF Evaluations LISTED IT AS A CON THAT YOU HAVE TO Remove STUFF TO ADD/REMOVE A HDD.YOU DON'T, PUT THE FRONT OFF FROM THE BOTTOM AND THE DRIVE BAYS COME OUT THE FRONT.>>>>>>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<<<<<< -1 gigantic con: the psu position is on the bottom of the case, i dont comprehend this decision at all. most motherboards have the 24pin on the top correct, so putting the psu on the bottom left is just a huge misstep. my psu is rather high-end and i got it expecting to not have to bother with worrying about something psu-connected for a long long time, but i had to install it upside-down in the solano in order to just barely make it more than to the 24-pin. if my mobo didn't oddly place the 24-pin one inch lower than my other ones i would have had to send either it or the case back, and i almost certainly would have sacrificed the case. also the 24-pin cables look idiotic stretching more than the gfx like that by means of the solano's side window. i only took 1 egg off for the psu issue and thats mainly because it didn't finish up becoming a big challenge, but i could quickly be a really massive 1 for everyone who buys the very best-rated tower on newegg thinking they wouldn't have to study it to death due to the fact of thatin conclusion:CHECK THAT YOU CAN REACH YOUR 24PIN Just before Shopping forbut if you can, i advocate this case due to the fact thats the only problem here

-Good Value-Construct Good quality-Spacious-Builder Friendly-Quiet-Excellent Design/Layout -Cable Management-Dust Magnet This is such a good quality built case. Better than any case I've looked at. The thumb screws are a really good function. The black in/out looks truly sleek. A lot of space to perform with. Steel construction and tall rubber feet make it sturdy and durable. Only way to make this case better is dust filters and a small bit additional space in the cable management compartment. But its far better than no cable management at all.

Massive and solid case. Enough fans for my peace of mind. i7 930 runs around 40C with Starcraft low noise fans Newegg need to make it a lot easier to get the mail in rebate forms at time of obtain. I missed out. Lots of thumb screws. When buying PSU make confident you choose one with long leads. Cable management is a challenge with this case.

None, the boxes are defective Poor power switch molex connectors. Newegg keeps issuing RMA's and keeps sending defective boxes. Azza was excellent, but this lot of boxes are bad. I purchased eight of them, three had been bad. I am in an RMA cycle that won't end. The attorney general of my state has been contacted. Incredibly unethical, remain away.

Lots of space, really simple to take apart and assemble. Loads of circulation and cool lights. There's far more but I can't seem to keep in mind it I required a couple of longer cables and had to be creative because the PSU is on the bottom and my optical drive is at the best of the case due to how I like it. Not actually a con, just my preference. For the funds, this is 1 of the greatest circumstances out there, so much room and so considerably future expandability!

Good large case, great cost, and When popping out the place holders for your drive that maintain dust out they can break if you are not careful which is not a large deal when you will have an optical drive there anyhow. Overall it is a very good case to go with it's a full atx case and it is not the pricey but can be quite stylish.

This case is wonderful. It has wonderful, Wonderful cooling (I can't even feel warm air come out the back, it just feels room temp), and tons of space. The HDD bays are removable and each hold 4 HDDs with a major blue glowing fan on the front of every encasement, has a giant fan on the best and the side, and a major exhaust in the back. The big rubber feet give it best grip and elevate it practically an inch for more cooling around the PSU. Nothing. Properly it is extremely extremely bright blue. Lots of light. That may not be a con but in a dark room its like a lamp. Virtually too massive, the cable that came with my psu has a challenging time reaching the very best five.25" drive (but it managed). Also it has far more slots than my motherboard has inputs.

The quantity of fans, more than all its not quite heary for a full size tower. None I can see appropriate now. I'm nonetheless waiting for parts to develop a new system, so I'll know much more later. But for now, I don't think you'll locate a superior case that would have the air flow this 1 will. I'll be confident to recommed this 1 to friends. .. As soon as once more, NewEgg shipping from the Jersey wharehouse was wonderful.

Cons:- Big side fan vs big cpu cooler

Pros:- Lot of room- Good looking
Comment:
- I bought this for a friend some time ago and he is very happy with it. Good looking, sturdy, good air flow. When I received it, the top fan was not spinning, only lighting and the side fan was to big for the huge cpu cooler I put in it. So I just removed the side fan and put it instead of the broken top fan. The air flow is still very good without the side fan.

Massive full tower case to minimize clutter. 5 quiet fans to assist with cooling. Far more than enough expansion bays. The fans most likely wouldn't function too properly if I definitely needed heavy cooling. The case is massive but still gets cluttered with my psu cables (not the case's fault).

Space for components and cables with room to spare. Installation was much easier with this case than the previous mid-tower case that I owned. With the fans that it has it keeps my i7-930 program operating cool, even if the best fan quit working right after two hours of operation. The top fan quit working (-1 egg). I haven't had the chance to replace it but, but I'm not searching forward to that given that the fan is tied in with the switch on the back (almost got a different -1 egg for lack of servicing capacity). I don't think for the price that you could come across a case this size that works as properly. Would recommend it to a friend but throw up the caveat about the wiring scheme.

Incredible case. Very high airflow, and surprisingly fairly for all the fans in there. It has a switch on the back to turn the leading exhaust fan to three diverse speeds. In contrast to others, I discovered cable management quite easy with this case, everything fit snugly behind the mobo. Lights are bright, but not too bright. Side case fan doesnt intrude too a lot, but I purchased a corsair H50 anyways mainly because i wanted to maintain that fan in there Pretty hefty case. tough to fit appropriate where i wanted it, but thats my bad for not measuring prior to. None of my components get hot at all in this case. There is a ridiculous quantity of air flowin by means of there.
