Cons: Pricey. Arrived with a broken foot. Their just made out of cheap plastic, thats one of my main gripe about this case. So expect that if it's being shipped from a long distance, and especially if it's winter time. Another thing is how they molded the panels, you actually lose like half an inch at the back for cable management, but it's a big enough case, so it's not that big of a deal, as everything fit nice and tightly, just wish I had a inch more, be nice. Also, the front usb ports are uptop w/o a cover, be nice if they we're in the front or atleast have a sliding cover to keep the dust away.
Pros: Big case.Room to upgrade in the future. Sturdy build, very well made. Like that the tinted side window is not perforated for a fan. |

Cons: Case feet fell off in shipping (super glued back on myself)HDD cages very restrictive if installedFront panel connectors do NOT reach the motherboard
Pros: Great overall layoutMany radiator mounts and mounting holesSSD mouting on the back of the motherboardRemoveable HDD racks100% fan filteredQuality rubber gromitsComprehensive accessories packageBeautiful brushed plastic frontGorgeous tinted side panel that shows exactly what it needs toElevated off the ground Comment:
Pros: Lets start with this. This case is GORGEOUS. There is ample room for all parts, cables, and airflow. There are removable HDD cages (I dont use internal HDD's for storage, because it restricts front air intake). Everything is fan filtered, so it is 95% free of any dust... and they are easily cleanable.Cons: Major gripes inbound! I chose not to leave the HDD cages installed because they restricted front air flow almost entirely.The front panel connectors are ... just a wee bit too short to fit on my motherboard, and I have to start my computer up with the MemOK! button on my motherboard.And the wobbly case, when I first got it, because the case feet fell off in shipping.In summary: This case is absolutely beautiful for mounting all different shapes and sizes of radiators due to flexible mounting options and locations, great airflow, it looks beautiful, and I would 100% buy this again if a REV 2 comes out! |

Cons: Brushed Plastic for the front panel can look cheap to SOME people but it's more than acceptable.
Pros: SizeColorQualityInterior Layout Comment:
During the sale this case at a little over $100 is a no brainer, it's somewhat large due to being a full tower but if your desk can accommodate this behemoth then you're good to go. |
Besides that, it's a very nice case, i can't be more pleased about it. Nice simple design, with a lot of airflow and dust filters all around. I recommended it.
