Cons:
Rubber grommets for routing cables are rubbish. Could have more space between the motherboard tray and side panel for hiding cables. Front door is plastic.
Pros: Beautiful design. Good sound insulation. Good interior design. Comment:
Very nice interior and exterior design. I wish the front door was metal and not plastic but it's still fairly sturdy. Lots of sound dampening material inside the case. The rubber grommets for routing cables are small and easily fall off. Could use more space between the motherboard tray and side panel for hiding cables. Overall, pretty good. |

Side Panel Foam Isn't Glued Very WellPaint Comes Off EasyFront Door is Plastic
Pros: Great Cable ManagmentLooks AwesomeBlack InteriorBlack Accessories (Screws) + Fan Controller Comment:
I've had this case for about 10 days, so far I really like it. It has great cable management, looks great, black interior along with black screws.. The only drawbacks that I see are the rubber used for cable management come off really easy, yes you can put them back on but a bit of an annoyance.. The interior paint comes off really easily, infact when I was putting my drives back in I noticed it scratched.. Also the front door is plastic not aluminum.. Overall I really like the case, would recommend it.. |

Cons:
This case is a little rough around the edges, the HDD trays are flimsy and honestly mystifying in terms of their purpose, the side vents on the front plate bypass the fans, rendering their dust filters useless, and there are lots of little issues throughout (rubber grommets for cable routing being loose, doors and screws with awkward fits, bottom dust filter obviously not fitting properly). Nothing that would stop me from buying the case again, but it's obvious that corners have been cut on this case in order to keep the price point down.
Pros: Silent case at a decent price, the fan controller works like a charm and is a real nice touch. With all the optional fan holes blocked off I can't even tell if the computer is on when I walk into the room. Comment:
Extremely quiet case at a good price, it's lacking in a little polish with regards to the details. Still, it's very functional with some decent features and fairly stylish to boot, having built systems with this and an Antec P183 I'd say it compares very favourably. |

Pros: Completely Silent Comment:
This is a fantastic case. I looks far better in person than it does in any picture. Another bonus is the fan controller that comes with the case, rendering the fans silent. One quick quip would be to do with the plastic in the door, which was already half off when I got it, which meant the door was discoloured. But enough from me, buy this case, you won't regret it! |
I bought this case at a good price, so that I am happy.Build quality is average. Front panel is plastic, which is disappointing... internal layout is decent design, but not out of this world either... Sound reduction material is impressive! but one of the side panel sound reduction material came off, so not impress.Overall, I say is average only... I would likely buy again for the fact that price and sound reduction is on the good side.
