Cons:
The exaust fan is loud
Pros: This case is very beutiful Comment:
This case is very beutiful and the packaging was excellent. The pics online for this case dont do it justice. Intalation was a breeze and the design took into account instalaton with swinging hard drive bays and its pretty much tooless. The worst thing about this case is the rear 92mm case fan at 1210 rpm it squeels so I replaced it with a Noctua 92mm fan and now its dead silent. This case has some relly nice fetures but they could have done better structialy its kinda cheap. I put this case online for sale after the build and I had 210 hits in 6hrs. I wanted to see if there was any interest locally and I was swamped with questions. I resonded that availability is the biggest problem. |

Cons: Only one case fan port, and it has a lousy, loud and relatively small 92mm fan stuck on it.Manual forgets to mention how to remove rear cover to install PSU!A rather pricey case compared to other In-Win cases; you're paying for looks here
Pros: Incredibly well-made exteriorVery handy tool-less interior makes for easy installsSide vent with air duct helps cool your CPUFlip-top front cover keeps your DVD drive and its noise out of the way Comment:
Yes ladies, this case is painted in a satin white finish. The stealth drive cover pops open smoothly. It comes with a power cord so you can save some money buying an OEM PSU.I've always loved In-Win tool-less interiors and I'm impressed with the attention they put on the appearance of this case. I bought this for my aunt and my wife immediately wanted it.This case only has two black marks against it:1) The included 92mm fan is terrible. Buy a Yate Loon D90BL to replace it.2) The manual omits any mention of how to remove the inner rear plastic cover. There are two white tabs holding it in at the bottom of the case. |

Cons: -Only 1 92mm rear fan-Expensive
Pros: -Very elegant-Robust design-Easy to work with Comment:
Bought this for my girlfriend. My main concern with this case is heat and noise. The generic 92mm fan that came with the case was not quiet, but the case did do a good job of containing most of the noise, but I bought another 92mm fan to replace it anyway so it's fairly quiet now. With only 1 92mm fan, I have not encountered any heating problems yet but so far I have not added a video card. I'm not planning to run any high-end/overclocked components in there so I hope heating won't be a problem. |

Cons: This case is an attractive piece of hardware for girls. I built a PC for my wife using this case. The little crystals have a nice effect of showing the case "polished and shined"Feature wise, it is still very good case even without the looks. This case is designed to be as tool-less as possible, while remains tool-friendly. Every components except the power supply and the motherboard can be mounted without the use of tools. But also because of this In-WIN has included far less than enough screws if you want to use them to secure every component.Another thing I do not like is that there is no Reset button, only a Power button. But there is an IR receiver on the front panel, the only problem is to find a way to attach it to the motherboard. One more thing that is desirable is a color matching bezel for the CD-ROM drive. The case's color is close to "pearl white" while most white drive bezel is actually quite dark (grey).Finally, for a $100+ case I expected to see more than a single poster of multilanguage instructions. Even with that the descriptions for the

I purchased this case for a system I had built for my wife over a year ago. This was essentially the only girly case I found and she really likes it. Paired this with a AMD quad and hopefully it will be future proof for her needs for years to come. The only negative i can think of is that the 90mm fan does little to vent the system.
