5.0 out of 5 stars great case for the money.

Great case for the money very spacious. Can fit everything easily. Be aware it doesn't have a lot of features that more expensive cases have. And I really mean not many at all.

3.0 out of 5 stars Works fine, but its loud
Reviewed in the United States on November 27, 2014
For the price, its really not too terrible. But it is not a great case either. The ventilation is pretty good, and so far it has been pretty durable (including the front panel connectors).

However, if there was one thing I could re-do when I built my pc, it would be my case selection. This case is LOUD. And I mean when I am gaming, its almost as loud as the dehumidifier in my basement. There are no damping mounts for HDD's, which is becoming more and more common even in lower end cases. Also, instead of normal standoff points, there are strange punchouts that just end up acting as springs under vibration and contribute to the noise.

Obviously, its a barebones case, and you get what you pay for, but I think it would probably be worth it to try and find a little nicer case on sale to avoid the noise issues I have had. Functionally, its fine, and I dont anticipate it falling apart or anything like that. But tbh, the cheap case that came with my family's HP prebuilt ended up running quiter than this guy.

If you are out of money at the end of a build, this will work in a pinch. But if you plan on keeping your pc a long time, I would think about splurging on the case.

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent case with good ventilation and ready to add many fans. Recommended because of its low price
Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2015
Purchased this case 2 years ago. I added 1 fan in the front and 2 fans on the top. It comes with one fan for a total of four fans on my case. The temperatures are really good so Im happy with the performance. I live in a very hot climate and it keeps an i5 overclocked to 4.3 ghz around 65C in full load. I cant complain about anything other than I wish the hard disks were placed in a different way so you could take them in and out easier.

Looks great. Huge inside. The sides to lock in like other cases, they just close and the screws hold them (both a pro and a con).

5.0 out of 5 stars Sleek, attractive, no frills
Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2014
I bought this case about a year and a half ago for my custom build. I still love it! It's clean, and simple, and sleek looking. The ventilation in this case is great with generous vent pannels, and room for 8 fans if you so desire (I'm running 4 right now). There is plenty of room inside, and cable management is a snap with some strategic ziptie use. Further mods are a snap as both side pannels open with a thumb screw, no tools required after initial installation. If you want a case with fantastic air flow, and think LED's look a tad ridiculous this is the case for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good case under $60, check around for price.
Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2014
I wanted to buy this through Amazon but not for $80 -- Newegg shows MSRP as $59.99 and is selling for about $58 including shipping.

This is not an $80 case -- it competes with and is similar to the the Antec Gaming One, another roughly $55 case.
