The green LEDs are Great. Also, the n"ame is a lot of enjoyable to say out loud in an intense voice... the SMIIIILODONNNNN." It's roomy, I like the foldout MB alternative. Uncomplicated to access the inner workings from either side. The knobs to lock in the drives and such are awesome, effortless to use. Love the Accessory Box and the way it's neatly hidden inside. Did I mention the awesomeness of the LEDs yet? DOA power provide. Was going to go via the RMA procedure, but NewEgg wanted me to send the complete case back... thinking of Raidmax's history with obtaining somewhat sketchy PSUs, I cancelled my RMA request and NewEgg gave me a บ credit for the inconvenience. Way awesome of NewEgg.Gonna want to put the case on top rated of a slab of wood or anything, as the case door drags against my carpet when opening. Also sort of bummed that the energy button and USB plugs are inside of the door... but I'll deal. I was a bit skeptical when I realized this situation sold for the identical price with and without having a PSU. Getting read the feedback about PSUs arriving DOA, I figured I'd give it a shot anyway and perhaps I'd be 1 of these lucky ones. As I was planning to replace the PSU at some point anyway (Raidmax is rated fairly low on PSU reliability), I appear at it as somewhat of a blessing in disguise. NewEgg supplying me a credit since of the dead energy supply was very awesome.

Properly made, a lot of area, can tuck cables away, looks great, heavy. Harddrive holder is a great thought, has slide out for installing. Took off an egg since the PS does not have up to date connectors (pcie, eight pin mobo connector which I necessary). Harddrive holder does not have holes for harddrives in the appropriate location. I tried everyway doable to put my drive there, but I gave up and place it in the bottom exactly where the Floppies go. Almost everything else is with out screws (toolless). What's going on at Raidmax. You make a fantastic situation and do something so silly that you can not hold any drive there.

its larger than most instances. it comes with 4 fans and room for quite a few additional.. every thing else i purchased fit into it perfectly. and they are all super quiet. i couldn't uncover the hdd light at first... but then i realized its combined with the middle green light on the front panel. worth the income. lights aren't annoyingly vibrant.

Like the look, the room inside, the fold out mobo tray. Nice overall package. Plenty of room to expand my method. Breaths extremely well. Great airflow keeps every thing running nice and cool. Power supply only had a four connector plug for CPU. Needed 8.Cables on PS were to brief to fold down MOBO tray to function on. Only one green LED fan. Replaced all with new green LED fans that had a little more ooomph. And ones that had suitable fittings as to fit onto my mobo. OH, and the front fan that came with mine was blue, as an alternative of green. Lame. OH, don't get me started on the rebate that has never ever shown up. If you are going to present a rebate, HONOR IT.... I would nonetheless obtain this situation yet again. Stripped of PSU and the cheesy fans. Greater however. Present it with a excellent up to date PSU and fans that are worth a darn, (all in the same color and have suitable connectors).

Good looking, sturdy case, good PSU if you don't like green lights.....this isn't for you! Great situation! Far better than the blue LEDs. Its a fantastic, fresh, look witht the green and black.

This tower looks great. The green LEDs are a nice touch and arent also bright. It is alot larger than I thought it was going to be.. I don't know if this need to qualify as a mid-tower.. I'm putting this in pros mainly because the size offers it a lot of room to operate with inside, but for some it might be a con if you have restricted space for the tower.It runs extremely cool. I haven't added and added fans and this factor blows ice cold air out of the back. Anything in the tower is cool to the touch (aside from my video card which has a fan directly on it and comes with a stock fan itself). The only con I have for this tower is the power provide is a mess of wires and the shortness of some make it impossible for good cable management.The power supply is the only factor I can choose on with this situation, and I can't seriously complain.. It's fairly considerably a totally free PSU mainly because the tower itself is worth the cash spent. I will definitely consider this situation again for my subsequent create.-ASUS M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3 Motherboard-AMD Phenom II x6 1090T Black Edition-G.Skill Ripjaws Series 8GB 240-Pin DDR3 �)-WD Caviar Black 640GB 7200 RPM SATA 6.0Gb/s-XFX Radeon HD 5670 1GB DDR5 PCIE 2.1 x16-ASUS DRW-24B1ST 24x SATA DVD Burner-RAIDMAX SMILODON Extreme Black Mid Towerw/ 500W PSU

You can take both sides off and the mother board tray out to work on it. Final time I built a program it was a 286 and those situations needed blood sacrifice from the knuckles to work on. This was superb.It is really. It works. It is cost powerful. For me the trade off of being in a position to work on it is worth it. Only two and that is why this is 4 not five stars. Initially, the power provide cables had been to brief to reach all the bays. Second, it took some critical work to eliminate the metal bay covers simply because the first choice was not an selection due to short power cables. I disconnected the case light. Nice but...Power provide upgrade is planned so an aggravation and down check. I'll still acquire far more of these and just get much more cable.The hard disk indicator light is not seriously visible with the front cover door closed either.

The only instances I have actually looked at are the ones for the two computers at my property at the moment. This was a VAST improvement over these.Lots of space to function fold out sides are good.The LED lights appear amazing love em. Front panel covers up USB ports...If you have the motherboard side of the case folded out the molex from the power provide is not extended sufficient to reach the motherboard, you have to fold the side panel back up before you can connect some of the wires... Kinda stinks.

Loved putting every thing together.. They tried to consider of anything... The power supply. Effectively the sata cables are on the same line and only a couple of inches apart. So I couldn't place the tricky drive in the tough drive bay.. And my dvd player has to be on the bottom row just so they can work... Since folks say that the power provide is garbage, then I will replace it with my old 1 which has a lot more watts anyways. I will use this PS on my garbage pc...

+ General: Price for the features offered+ A lot of area for expansion+ LED lights that come with case+ Fold-out MB tends to make maintenance and cabling a lot easier. - As talked about, the case is excellent and I would make an extra buy of one if building a new method. The power supplies are awful. I've ordered two of these situations:ş Obtain. Power provide died immediately after two.5 years. Became a lot more noticeable not too long ago when high requirement games (Starcraft 2, Assassin's Creed, and so forth.) would suddenly freeze the entire program and force a poweroff. Was not heat with video card, was not heat in case, total power specifications in case did not not exceed 500W ... the power supply merely could not handle the load. Š Acquire. DOA power supply. Didn't build method quickly soon after purchase and by time I did, exceeded NewEgg RMA period. Was in a position to do RMA with RAIDMAX, but, additional บ-ฟ expense in shipping. Given the case+power supply is only an added ฤ vs. case alone, if you need a spare power supply to keep about, that could make it worth the ฤ. Otherwise, would not rely on power provide that comes with this case.

Comment:
This case is super roomy,and both sides fold out. Straightforward to install or eliminate devices. Lots of fans! There is a slight noise coming from the power supply fan. If you use the default power provide you have have to disconnect the 20-24 pin connector from the board to open the 1 side of the case. Not truly a big deal, and with a distinct power provide (with a longer cable for 20-24 pin connector) this is not an concern.

Comment:
Great seeking case. Comes with enough fans to maintain every little thing running cool. Ordered this case twice. Both times the case was received with no the listed screws and drive rail hardware. Newegg was excellent about returning the situations and refunding my dollars. Newegg is has always treated me properly.

- Fold out motherboard tray- Side fans- Tool much less racks- Very good searching green LED - Little space 񣅚 is less than 1 inch away from harddrive- Will NOT fit the H50 (See other thoughts)- Pain in the rear to replace front fan- Stock 120mm fans are slow and they aren't fast (Replace all of the stock fans) The H50 does not fit inside the case. the sway bar will be blocked. I slightly modified it by slightly producing the latch holes for the sway bar additional further down. So the sway bar is slightly crooked. This works but i wouldnt suggest undertaking this due to the fact my first H50 started out to leak then i purchased a different H50 and that started to leak. I dont know if its because of my modification or not but dont try it! And yes i know how to install the H50 (Ive installed it on 3-four other computer systems)

Wonderful develop quality, a lot better than I had expected. All of the tool-less levers and harnesses operate incredibly effectively.The fold down motherboard tray was handy for the initial build method. The front panel LEDs appear fantastic. Really simple build. I wouldn't hesitate to use this case on any construct except for one particular that utilizes liquid cooling. Side panel windows looks dumb. I wish they supplied this case with out a window. What produced side panels cool was when you put them in yourself. You had the sense of accomplishment of doing it yourself, and carrying out a thing that you believed looked very good to you. Premanufactured case windows ruin that whole expertise.I employed the stock cooler, so this doesn't especially have an effect on me, but if you use any high good quality aftermarket cooler, such as one of the large Zalmans, you can't fold the motherboard tray down devoid of removing the cooler initially.Also, the front panel cables are way way as well brief. My motherboard has the headers for all the switches and LEDs mounted as close to the front of the case as possible, and I nonetheless had to stretch the cables to make them reach. Mainly because of this you can\'t fold the motherboard case down immediately after completing the build. This case would get five eggs if there was no side panel window, and if the front panel cables had been four inches longer.I've employed two of these circumstances, and was extremely incredibly pleased with each. They exceeded my expectations everywhere except for the cons talked about above.

Low the color, size, style! This case has been quite and cool. All the fans maintain my technique operating cool even in the Arizona Heat! At the moment I've got a i5-650 3.5 OC'ed to 4.five on a MSI-P55a-Fuzion and two Nvidia GTX 460s in SLI. I in no way overheat and even with out my headset it's all quiet. I also enjoy the lites. ^^ None so far. I guess for some the case may be a bit modest but I've in no way been a fan of massive instances.

Comment:
Fantastic case.Not certain what else to say. Have had this case for a fantastic year now and the only troubles with it have been a slight wobble in the side fan (Raidmax tech assistance was amazing, responded really promptly to e-mail and had a new fan on its way shortly).And 1 of the front USB ports that I nearly by no means use stopped operating.A little cramped with a massive graphics card, but its a mid size case. Certain the LED's are a little corny but Raidmax produced a buyer here.

Excellent case, lots of fans, good green lights, and built like a tank. Installation of something you install is a breeze with both sides becoming able to fold out, and all tool much less design for the hdd's and other drives operates excellent. Nice tiny box beneath hdd bay for added holders and hardware maintain factors organized. I've had mine for four months now and now difficulties or troubles. Not truly a poor issue, just type of weird that the door has to be open to access the two usb connectors in the front of the case. Would have been nice for a little cutout so the door could be closed when the usb's are in use, not worth docking an egg though.

This case is great! Really good price, Roomy, Well ventilated, and extremely sexy :) a 500w power supply on top of that F T W!! None.. This case comes with 4 fans ƒx 120mm and 2x 80mm) and there is a different fan slot for a 5th fan behind the mobo. So far I haven't heard any of my fans turn on full speed while gaming (is stays that cool)..

It was for my wife, it's green and glows. Excellent airflow, keeps almost everything cool. Came with enough fans to place in all 4 positions. two glow, 2 do not. Uncomplicated open door for uncomplicated access from either side of case. Anything functions perfectly, wife's content, so I'm content. Came with power supply, never trusted those OEMs. Been operating for practically two weeks straight, no troubles. Could almost certainly stand one more sata cable or 2, but not enough to take away an egg. Bought 2 other LED fans to replace the OEM ones, and this case glows. It's like leaving a light on in the living space. Massively lighted, just so you know if you feel about performing that. Heard bad issues about shipping, but not even a crushed corner on my box.

Access to both sides , great looks, great value, lots of room to function in for the duration of your install. Fantastic cooling!!!!Add an 80MM Fan and filter for the correct side in the course of assembly and your airflow is even greater. Cannot see the HDD LED when the front door is closed.I purchased W/out Power provide and got a Corsair 750. Great searching box, I was very tired of Red and Blue LEDS and the Green looks wonderful.

Comment:
wonderful box and affordable prix too i dont know if it supost to have a hardcrive light . if it have a single i dont see it or it not working box have alot of air flow mainly because of the 4 fan in case

Comment:
Comes with 500watt PSU. dual 12volt rails, a really quiet PSU. Also has plenty of cable to make all these connections.Lots of room.... there was a assessment here saying he had difficulty with aftermarket cooling space when opening the case door.... No Difficulty here.. Zalman 8700 led cooler fits with room to spare.Looks great, quite solid const. The fans are a little lower CFM than i would like... but thats another Pro..adding to the quitet side of this case. I will be employing this case for future gaming builds.....It's excellent seeking / quite / and quite uncomplicated to build with.

No screw Fold out side panel, easy acces to the motherboard and components inside.Wonderful appear with the green led. Superior excellent and it even come with a power provide! Have to open the front panel to have acces to the pwr and reset switch. The front panel should be open if you have some thing plug in the front usb or the audio out. HDD red led is next to the middle green led, quite little and not really noticeable.

Comment:
vary effortless to operate with, each sides open down, nice lights, now too substantially. case in my opinion is from quite satisfying quality, and a bit heavy, not a soda can like i read somewhere... only factor is that if u use the front panel USB or Audio ports the door should stay open... it just style. But if u use the one on the back and close door its great clean appear
