This is a fantastic product! There was a LOT of thought and planning that went into this design. I needed a nice looking case to put with the rest of my entertainment equipment and I couldn't be happier with this one. Every part of this case is well designed and every component fits like a glove. It is a little tight but not ridiculous. I would not recommend the clear sided version, the all black looks great. Mine has a very respectable finish, no orange peel as others have mentioned. The three included fans do a good job on air movement, I don't see a need for more. The only slight complaint is that the drive bay door does slightly catch upon closing, may need to do a mild mod on this. Great product and very reasonable price.

I just got this thing. It is nice. No joke. I love it. Yes it has a orange peal to it. I detail cars and I can see it. But its not a big deal! you can only see it if you are right on top of it. It was a little bigger than I thought but dont let that stop you from getting this case. It has 3 fans, 2 in the back, 1 big fan in the front. One of the nice things about this case is the front USB ports. I always hate it when you get a case and you got 4 or more plug for usb. It's all one plug! The case comes with more than what you need to install your mobo and other hardware. It was a good buy and my wife and I love it! I have a video on youtube if you want to have a look. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jg3yR5GEBEI

I just bought this case for my first build. I don't know what that guy's talking about 'orange peal' texture; the finish is sweet and smooth. Couldn't be a nicer looking computer out there, and so far it performs like a champ. I'll have to get a couple extra case fans cause I can see heating becoming an issue once i expand and put more inside it but it comes with 3 fans! More than enough to start with. It is cramped inside but it all fits if you know what you're doing although I would say that's one huge reason NOT to get the one with the clear window on the side. Oh yeah, I'm sure you want to stare at the knot of cables jammed inside. Also, the 5.25 bays will stick if your DVD drive doesn't have a slim profile. On mine, the drive's front is a little too big so the bay door doesn't close all the way ,and when I close the drive I have to hold open the bay door or it'll catch. Simple enough to get around and I'm just going to buy a slimmer drive. Overall though a sweet case.
