Great value case

This case is a great value buy in my opinion. If you don't need lots of extra fans or desire a case with windows and lights then it's a good option. I had no problem with the quality of the build or materials it's constructed from.

It's not as aesthetically pleasing as some cases, but you get what you pay for and this is cheap. More detailed instructions would have been great.

Some have found it lacked screws. For my application, ie. for an ATX mobo, I had no problem with the number of screws. Also note that instead of riser screws or mobo spacers it utilizes raised metal mounts on the mobo back plate to give the mobo clearance.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW

Front panel USB & audio plate can be interchanged with lower filler plate for different configuration. My case came with standard 2 pin power connection so I haven't encountered that problem as other reviewers have mentioned. Personally I like the raised metal mounting posts for the MB. 430W PS fit with no issues. Screw secures for my add-on cards hold them in place nicely.

Completely hate the curved front filler plates that make the drives harder to access. Luckily I had a few extra flat plates laying around and with some epoxy was able to make the front much more user friendly. Left side panel rattles slightly as case was missing the spring clips that are supposed to be installed on the sides of the case to help secure the removable sides as well as provide proper shielding.

I used this case for a micro-ATX MB which gave me lots of room for routing cables. I'd bump the rating of this to 4 stars if the top half of the front panel didn't have those curved plates.
