Cons: The screws that are right against the front of the case that are holding in the front 2 fan bays were so stripped that I wasn't able to remove them to re-arrange the fan bays direction (Wanted to make them front facing). Wasn't worth RMA'ing and being without the case for another week or two since it was back ordered in the first place.
Pros: Huge case with tons of room, has an SSD cage located at the bottom right beside the PSU (Choice this spot to install my SSD with my OS on it, since their was a filter trap directly below it). Fans are very quiet and the LED glow isnt distracting or overly bright in a dark room. The extremely sturdy carrying handle is a huge plus because this case can get quite heavy when it's loaded up, especially with a larger GPU (I'd recommend removing a large GPU if you plan on moving this case to a lan party, and reinstalling it after shipping). Comment:
I've read a lot of reviews on this case before purchasing and just wanted to address a couple things. The "dent" in the side panel that some people have reported is actually a designed indentation that goes right in-front of the fans. Also the side panel itself is very easy to put back on, but if you don't have it properly hooked in at all 6 spots the bottom or top corners will appear lifted as some people have said. |

Cons: None
Pros: Spacious, good air flow Comment:
Bought this for a build for my boyfriend. He wanted it cause it looks like a monolith, I wanted it cause it looked large enough that we could do some serious cable management and not have to worry about air flow problems. The red glow from the fans is nice, but not too bright, and it's nice that you can rotate the HDD bays if you want them a specific way. I also like that there's a slot at the bottom for a mini toolbox to store your excess hardware. |

Cons: Weight but that's expected.
Pros: Lots of options for cooling/space, cable routing, amazing construction quality and finish Comment:
This case is a solid purchase. Loving the space and cooling options available. There's lots of features for cable routing options for cable management. The handle was a must for a tower this large in size and weight. Overall happy about this purchase. |

Cons: Space behind motherboard is limited compaired to other cases I have used lately (antec p280/eleven hundred/three hundred two)Just enough room for sleaved 24 pinNo place to hide left over cables (make sure you have a modular power supply or you will be sorry!!!-thumb screws were screwed on by the hulk
Pros: HugeTool box8 pin extention cable includedlots of places to mount SSD's including hotswapUSB 3.0 on from pannel"Soft touch" like finish is niceSwitchable HDD cagesAir filters or dual layer mesh on all intakesBotton to turn off LED's Comment:
Awesome case other than the space behind the motherboard tray and drive cages. There is just enough room for the 24 pin cable to lay flat.Thankfully they made the power supply cable gromet huge so you can flatten out your bundles of wires.The fans in front are quiet but push enough air to be usefull and the fan controller is nice (the beeping gets annoying if you change fan speeds all the time) Fan controller can also handle quite a few fans I have 4 Corsiar SP120 Performance fans plus the stock fans all on the controller (with a splitter) and it has not had a fit yet.The hard drive bays come both installed sideways, I left the top one and changed the bottom one to a front facing intake. Note that it does take time to change them over and if you change the bottom one you have to remove a steal support bar (I think it is mostly for shipping).The top air fileter is fairly restrictive, I would recomend removing it when using the top fan(s) as an exhaust.Oh yes, I had an issue where the most of the thumb screws were done up so tight that some of the threads were deformed slightly and hard to screw back in, even with a new screw. |

Cons: The only thing I can say that's bad about this case is that maybe a few more cable management slots would be nice.
Pros: Huge case, it's gonna great to see all the stuff I put in this case in the future. Plenty of room and it looks amazing. Comment:
The case suits my needs perfectly and will be future proof if I want to put dif/new hardware inside. |

Cons: None so far
Pros: Great price for such a well designed case! Comment:
One of the best designed gaming cases available on the market. It has two 90 degree rotatable HDD modules, an external 2.5" HDD/SSD X-dock & many other cool features. |

Cons: -no filters on side openings-old school thumbscrews for side panels
Pros: -great handle and hand hold for carrying-moveable hdd cages-lots of fan mount points-nice textured finish-you can turn the fan led's off-some fan filters Comment:
I bought this case for the handle, the size and the looks. In my mind it is not really a full tower and sitting beside my 800D confirms that. I did need something that I could move around as I take this to work and the handle and handhold fill the bill in that respect. The case airflow is quite good and cools my components adequately with the stock fans but it would be nice to have filters on the side vents. Cable routing holes are placed nicely and really help cable management. Overall I like this case and I think it will last through several builds. |

Cons: Front fans mounted sideways when opened. The Fan controller when used with Bitfenix led fans.
Pros: Lots of room Comment:
Over all a good case. The only disappointment was the fan controller when used with other led fans. When you turned down the speed the led on the fans flashed continuously. Had to purchase a separate fan controller for the job. |

Cons: The one thing I don't like about this case is there is no side window. (hardly a con)
Pros: Lots of room to work with, removable tool box, great air flow Comment:
This is my first full tower case and going from mid towers this thing is a dream to work on, so much room to route cables, the 90degree rotatable hdd cage makes installation easy and provides great airflow throughout the case. |

Cons: the buttons on the front panel (Power, Fan Control) Feels funny and a bit off or not installed properly, I dont know if its only mine, or is it really like that, I really would like to take a star out of it, just because its sad to make everything perfect and leave this easy part seems cheap!
Pros: Plenty of room with this case, Great air flow (better than HAF X), and it has dust filter!!, good space for cable management, tool less design, they thought about everything you could possibly put it in this HUGE case. Comment:
overall a really great case, I would still recommend to anyone who would be looking for all the pros, I mentioned above.NCIX on the other hand what a great service, the best place online for any Canadian to shop for electronics, would spread the word no doubt. |

Cons: - JEEZ UPS banged up my box!- Not as intuitive as hoped- Could use more "slide in place and snap" and less "screw into place"
Pros: - ROOM ROOM ROOM!- Very smart case (a drawer holding nuts in bolt inside the case, nice touch!)- Sturdy- Looks ready for battle at a glance! Comment:
In a sense, it was a good thing that UPS banged up my box, cause it just showed how sturdy and ready for battle this beast of a case is!Tons of room! Excellent cable management! Liquid cooling ready vents! All fans are included (unlike many other "cost cutting" manufacturers)Over all, what a beauty! |

Cons: No window, no fan filters on side intakes even though they claim there is dust filters on all intakes in reviews i watched. Front fans came side mounted.
Pros: Lots of airflow options, best looking case ever, 2x 120mm fan mounts on bottom of case. Very strong handle. Comment:
Ill still give this case 55 despite the cons, I am going to buy some fan filters for the 120mm side fans I will be installing. |
The carry handle on top VERY convenient. The space is also great lot's of room for anything i can put in it. Cable handling is very nice. Recommend this for any who is looking for new tower. I bought it when it was on sale but that is after i snooped all over the web about this first.
