It fit my EVGA 780FTW motherboard with my BFG GTX 280 video card. Core temps are 36C, under load around 42C (Quad-core). The fans are not noisy either. |

Great case, plenty of room. One problem with the quality; When I opened the case up, one of the plastic male clips that holds the front panel on was already broken. Also, despite trying to remove the front panel as carefully as I could, two more clips broke off. After I got it off, another one was missing as well. The plastic used for them is very hard and breaks easily. Fortunately, there's still enough of them left to hold the front on. But, despite that, this is a great case. HUGE! Haven't gotten to point of firing up yet, need more stuff. |

Excellent case. Very comparable to the Antec nine hundred, but fifty bucks less with an extra fan on top. Quiet and roomy. Automotive type toggle switches from local electronics store fit perfectly in liquid cooling pipe holes in back. Added 2 toggle switches in 5 min. for lights with no drilling! Cool. Literally and figuratively, Slight crack in front acrylic where lights are, but that's not a big deal. Couldn't be happier with a CPU CASE. |

Maximum PC Magazine gave this case a 9 Kick Ass award rating, and I have to agree. It has all you could want in a case, with all the bundled fans, drive rails that are easy to operate, great included screw and standoff package, and even a little PC speaker since there's none attached to the case or something like the old days. One of the things they noted about giving a 9 and not the full 10 was non speed adjustable fans, but that really isn't neccicary unless there's major heat issues like overclocing on passive cooling. These fans move a serious amount of air to be spinning so slow, due to their size and number. Overall, I give it a 10 on a 10 scale. |

Case arrived in perfect condition with no problems. Like someone else said my case temp dropped by 12 degrees Celsius. The case also runs really quiet which is a great bonus. |

Fast shipping. Fans are 120x120x25 and 140x140x25. The 120mm front fans dont move alot of air which doesnt bother me just buy some new ones. Case is a solid build. Overall im happy with my purchase an cant wait to finish my first build. |

Fantastic case with six great fans. I had to do some wire splicing to fix the vertical lights on the front but that was a soldering problem from the factory and is apparently VERY UNcommon. That's my luck though; I knew how to fix it and did. Everything works as designed and the case is VERY quiet (more so than I thought). More impressively, with six fans running, if you touch the case, you don't even feel the vibration. My Core2Quad runs cool and my Nvidia 9800 runs 11celcius cooler. I'm not going to lie; I bought it for the looks and the size. But I'm impressed with the functionality, air flow and the price... not to mention E-sata :D |

Got this case in the mail yesterday. Ordered it on 11/16. So a week and a day to get it(was out of stock when I ordered it). This case is looks really nice. The only problem that I had is one of the plastic clips that hold on the front panel was broken when I received it. The front panel still has enough clips to keep it secure so I am not going to worry about it. Lots of fans, lots of space. Look forward to finally building a new computer! I highly recommend this case!
