Cons: Does not come with a windowed side panel but I take mine off anyways.
Pros: Very good in cooling, Very well build and lots of room in the back for cable management. I managed to put 3x120mm in the front, 1x120mm top, and 1 in the back. This is perfect for a build who doesnt want to waste too much money or buying a cheap case. Got it on sale for 69.99. The integrated fan controller works extremely well as it does supports up to 5 fans. The soft touch makes the case look very nice. Comment:
Great case and has very good airflow. The spectre fans perform very well and quietly. Very roomy at the back for cable management. Integrated fan controller was a very nice touch as well as the 4 USB 3.0 in the front. |

Cons: cheap rubber grommets on the motherboard tray, cheap feet on the case.
Pros: Great looking, lots of room behind the motherboard, all black, lots of layout options, USB 3.0 Comment:
its a great looking case with a lot of modern features. USB 3.0 on the top is great if you can get a motherboard that can handle it. I would have made the gromments out of a higher quality rubber or removed them as they get in the way and often fall out. The HDD bay layout is awesome but i would have liked to see the option to mount 3.5" HDDs in the 5.25" drive bays. installing an HDD into the 2.5" slot at the bottom was a huge pain. Overall its a great case. |

Cons: size of cabling holes is small if more than a few drivesATX with side facing SATA ports extremely tight fit, remove the first drive cage firstFeet either stayed on tight(1) or came off easily (3)(silicone glue fixed)
Pros: Nice looking casegood price point Light Comment:
fairly thin steel (I came off a Antec Performance Plus at 32lbs)Bonus was lack of window or side mesh (I did not want these features)I would remove the first drive cage first, cable the SATA and power then MB, connect SATA, install Video, connect power then put the cage back inThe case is great value for its price |

Cons: -Case feet aren't particularly well attached
Pros: -Sturdy build construction-Tons of space-Onboard fan controller-room for serious cooling potential (200mm fans) Comment:
A terrific case that was had while on sale, great airflow and tons of room for additions. Onboard fan controller is a plus and has room for plenty of cooling if you are so inclined. |

Cons: Side panels are flimsy and lack sound dampening material.
Pros: Great value, good airflow. Fan speed slider. Compact case for the amount of space inside. Comes with hex to philips/thumbscrew adapter for motherboard stands. Comment:
Free 200mm fan that is silent but doesn't move a lot of air.200mm fan fits in the top or front.Great case for the price, I got mine on special too. |

Cons: Side panels are solid and a tad flimsy. Power supply is a tad further away so ensure you have a long enough P4 cord on your PS. The feet are applied with sticky tape and not screws... which might come lose with lots of movement. No 3.25 inch bay for a small card reader (or a floppy drive if you're in 1997).
Pros: Wow... great value. I just transferred my system from my old case to this one and this one is a dream... and it's huge! No sharp edges. The airflow is excellent. 4 USB 3/2 ports on top. Fan slider to increase fan speed. It's QUIET! It's huge! My big CPU fan barely fit in my last case (which had a side panel that bubbled out) and here it fits with the no problem. Decent looking. Comment:
Got mine with the free 200mm fan (the fan came first and I couldn't imagine it ever fitting in the case!... but it does) and it does a great job with sucking the air in front and out the back. The fan slider does a nice job of speeding up the fans with very little noise increase but significant airflow increase. Because the case is bit wider it can fit a 200mm fan on top (you can also swap out the two 120mm fans inside the front panel for a 200mm fan if you want). Lots of room in the back panel for routing cords. SSD friendly bays. They even include a stand off thumb screw type wrench thingy! I've never had one of those before! |
Great cast for the money, can hold a ton of fans and looks awesome in an understated way. I just wish there were mounting holes for different top fans besides a 200mm like my HAF912 had so a 240 rad could be mounted.
