PowerUp Black ATX Mid-Tower Case with Clear Side, Front USB and Audio Ports and 450-Watt Power Supply

Comment:
Had to RMA first one. looked like someone had it before me and tried to hoy glue the front drive place holders ( there is a decortaive piece that is on the placeholders that was flimsy) My first one was also busted ( probally UPS ) also it does not say in specs but there is 2 120 mm fan ports. I installed a second 120mm fan for intake on the front. wish the front panel had vents. But i am getting airflow. Add a blue led 120mm fan on the back and your room will light up:) Would buy again

Nice looking case with some cool lights

Installed the board and the drives. Plugged it in and saw sparks and a little smoke from the power supply. Took it apart and there were blown caps. I had another power supply at the house and installed that . It is working like a charm. The lights on the front are pretty cool

I got a lot of family that liked the tower. My kids loved it. The only downside is the power supply fan is loud.

Comment:
Not a very sturdy case, but it gets the job done. Power and lights work fine. Lights are a little bright, but you can just unplug them from the board.

Cheap,nice looking,plenty of space for expansion. My only complaint is the space for the hard drives is positioned a little too far away from the power supply which makes it hard if you have a big graphics card.

Using this case with an ASUS M4A78T-E motherboard, AMD Phenom II X4 processor and 1 HD and 1 DVD drive. the 450W is just fine for my needs. if you like neon lights (which i don't) this is a cool case. i just unplugged the cable to the lights so i'm happy. the case fan has lights i can't turn off but they're not so bad. the quality of this case is kinda low but it does the job.

Comment:
had no problems with this case. Surprised me with all the lights.

went to install two small bay items into the 2 bays in the case and found that they rivited it over qaurter inch to far away for the items to fit, the screws would not line up, I had to drill the case to mount my flash drive and floppy. Also the USB Audio ports do not have a Door they have a clip in cover, its either on or Off and easy to lose. Poor Design

Good value as part of a kit. A little flimsy

Starting with Cons: Very flashy with the red LEDs (that are kind of boxy shaped) Have to add a rear exit fan (not included) I replaced the 450 PS immediately with something larger Pro: Interior was decently organized and large enough for my needs Construction was adequate Looks are decent It worked very well for my family PC build. If I follow through on moving this into the bedroom as a media PC I'll have to disable all the LEDs. It would get a 5th star if it had a front air intake (there are clips for a fan there but no inflow).

This is a nice case very bright especially when you put a color fan only complaint I had was its power supply guess you can't ask for much for the price but the power supply isn't 450 it is actually 250 my computer kept crashing on me cuase of that reason and I had it checked out besides the power supply its a cool case

Got this case as part of a barebones deal. Gaudy lightup case, but a little novelty. Case is pretty chincy, but does the job. After all, it is just something to mount your components into. Fan is noisy and inside, the breakouts are very sharp. I cut my hand knocking one out. Power cables are too short, had to mount HD and DVD close together so cables would reach. Lights are a little too flashy, but kids would like it. No matter what, everything came in working condition and started right up. Hope the MB holds up after seeing the reviews on that.

My first case arrived DOA. I think they reversed the power button and reset button since the reset button clicked as if it was on and off, while the power button responded more like the reset should have. Got a replacement and it is working without any problems. It would have been nice if it came with a 120mm fan.

i have three of these cases in the house and all three of them came with bad psu. the lights on the side are bright and does get annoying and i wish that there was a way to turn them off.

Comment:
I had to send to back and get another one, right out of the box the power button was bad. so i had to wait another week to get another case of the same type, seems to be running fine now ,but i would look for a better one , i know i will soon . They where very helpfull wi the return at nno cost and shipped a new one at no cost .

Comment:
Came with one fan thats it. So far I have chopped and modded four more fans. Now it cools like it should

Fits both mATX and full ATX, but with full ATX be very careful about where the front panel connections (pwr,rst,HDDLED,etc.) connections on the board are. If they are towards the lower back, the wires in this case might not fit. The only reason I gave it 3 stars was because I can't get the HDD lights to fit and the other wires are stretched to the max. Also, the front USB is in a terrible spot all the way on the bottom of the case, so something to think about if you plug thumb drives in all the time. other than that, no issues for a pretty generic bare bones case. With an AMD in it, definently add a 120mm fan to the back though.

Does it's job OK...just very noisy.

Comment:
Power supply that came with the case was causing all kinds of blue screens and hang ups since the beginning. I put another 420 watt PSU that weights more than the case with the original PSU. The new PSU fixed all the operating problems. Also, get a fan or you will fry your hard disk. Better still, get a different case altogether.

Everything works VERY well, The front Audio jacks are a bit nit-picky but the front USB2.0 jacks work. The case is very bright. The red LED strip and the blue Power Buttons look very nice together. I used blue LED fans in the case to complete to

Everything fit fine. Could have used a few more longer screws to attach the MB.

not the best came with a kit i bought liked my old case better so i used instead and put old componets in the new case it works good do not like red

1st off, i gotta explain the 2, i haven't noticed the case fan doing it's job, i feel no air flow. had to remove a few panels (with my screwdriver, to bend it off), the case actually cut me as i was removing one of the front covers for the CD trays, be VERY careful around that metal, it's sharp enough to go pretty deep. i find the LED lights on the front a nice touch, i wish they came in blue though :P the wiring was backwards on my case, my reset button tuns on my power and my power button resets. i was shorted 1 SATA cord, but my power supply seems to work fine. side note, if anything in the power supply is disconnected, won't you know right away? the SATA power cord is so short that i had to put my SATA Hard Drive in one of the floppy slots and my SATA DVD-RW right above it in the lowest CD trey. came with more than enough screws though.

Works great and looks better. It came with a barebones kit and even had room for the huge processor heat vent and cooling fan that I had to get afterwards since it was not included in the barebones kit.
