- Strengths:
- Plenty of space! I had an Antec Senatta III; after switching my temps dropped from 60 to 46 (running a 2500k at 5GHz). Plenty of holes for structured cabling inside your case (better air flow), more fan slots than your PSU can handle. Fits my V8 CPU cooler, looks sick with red lights glowing through the air holes.
- Weaknesses:
- Not enough space on the side to fit a V8 and a side fan, hole for access to back of CPU isn't large enough for the clips a V8 uses.
- Summary:
- Got this on sale however it's still worth getting off sale. Drove across the city because SE had 7, next day they were sold out. These cases go like hot cakes!
Awesome

-Ventilated all over
-Bottom mounting for PSU
-3 nice stock fans, room for 8 more if you desire

-Many secure points for tidying cables
- Weaknesses:
- None.
- Summary:
- Was very happy building my new computer in this case, especially since I got it at $80, Kept my cables very tidy with it's design. High quality all around, really gives you bang for your buck. Loved the HDD slot on top, allowed me to slide my old one in quickly to transfer my files over without having to plug in. Especially love all the optional fan/radiator mounting points, great if you want to do some serious overclocking, but also keeps cool stock.
awesome case

- Strengths:
- Well designed, attractive, well built, easy to work with and room for lots of fans. Comes with 2 140mm fans and one 120mm. Quiet fans! Hiding cabling is easy and the case is much cooler than my old case. Nice size case...lots of room without being a monster sized unit.
- Weaknesses:
- None.
- Summary:
- I really like this computer case! No regrets! I did lots of investigating before I bought this enclosure. In my opinion, the best case out there in the $100 range. It looks much more expensive than it is! If you want to spend even more, try out the Corsair 600T.
Everything I need
