Been getting a hard-on for this case all day.

Anyone have thoughts on pros and cons?

I think it’s beautiful.

I’d have to see shots of the interior. Otherwise it is kinda garish.

Interior is gray sheet metal. Kinda bland.

Shitty case actually if you don’t mod it.

In fact, I don’t even want it anymore because it’s just plastic and shitty sheet metal.

I may still get it though, fix it up, and sell it with cheap parts I got on sale from frys.

Pro:
– Roomy interior, can prolly fit mATX, ATX, and eATX mobos.
– Front Panel case fan (although seems pointless because they aren’t pointed at the hard drives).

Con:
– Only 2 HDD bays. I would like at least 4.
– Bottom mounted USB ports. I hate this shit. Manufacturers need to stop pulling this bull crap. The floor is going to get in the way of your fingers removing the USB dongle if it’s at the very bottom.
– “Old style” top mounted PSU. Bottom mounted PSU is really the way to go nowadays.

Meh:
– Side mounted DVD Drive? Sure, why not. Although, I don’t see what’s wrong with the traditional mounting of the DVD drive.
– Temp/Fan sensors on the front panel? Who cares since you can see that shit on the monitor anyways.

Summary:
– Spend your money on a different case. If you are looking for high end/gaming case, I would look towards the NZXT Tempest or Antec 900. Should be around $100-120. For budget case, totally get the Antec 300 for $50-60.

Who cares how nice looking it is? It needs to be functional, and frogurtx neatly points out why it isn’t good enough to have a pretty face.

Also, this case seems only to have 2 fans, which is too low. Personally, I would like to see at least 3. 1 – front, 1 – back, 1 – top (advantage of bottom PSU designs)– and that all fans are at least 120mm or bigger.

Anything that doesn’t result in your own death is a waste of your money, Graham.

Very bad. The timeline has been corrupted beyond repair. Reboot in 3..2…

I just looks like it needs one of those push in cigarette lighters cars have.

Personally, I think the vertical eject would take some serious getting used to, and what for? And 2 USB’s (and for that matter the mic & headphone jack, um hello I’m up here) at the bottom, don’t seem like anything spectacular, just buy from Dell at that point. ;-p

That’s a beautiful case but what about adding another DVD drive? It doesn’t seem to be an option.

At the point which being offered in ‘cool colors’ becomes a selling point, you lose.

It is to computer hardware what time travel is to science fiction writing, a crutch designed to draw attention away from how many other things you did not really think through first.
