HEC's 6C28BB8S Mid Tower is a great value for people who are trying to build an inexpensive system, or who want to spend more money on the internal parts. Four 5.25” and one 3.5” external bays plus five internal 3.5” bays provide plenty of room for storage.

An 80mm rear fan comes pre-installed, and you can mount additional fans on the front and the side panel of the case. A ducted vent is positioned over the CPU fan for extra cooling efficiency.

Drive installation is easy, since both of the 5.25 and 3.5" driver bays feature one-side-screwed design. So, load your system up and get back in the game with the HEC 6C28BB8S.

4 out of 5 eggsGood case for price

Pros: Good case for the price. I have had the case for almost 2 years now and no real hiccups. Its sturdy for the price you pay and is a nice entry level tower

Cons: Not a whole lot of room to work with but that's because its a mid-tower. Would have liked some more cooling fans and it would have been nice to have a fan on the side of the case rather then a duct.

Other Thoughts: Again for the price tough to beat. If you want more cooling look elsewhere.

4 out of 5 eggsJust fine for the money.

Pros: This is a nice case for the money. Plenty of external 5.25 bays but only one external 3.5 bay. Nice amount of internal 3.5 bays. Plenty of space inside for expansion and can do ATX or micro ATX.

Cons: Flimsy sides could be bent easily but as long as you're careful you shouldn't have a problem. Only one external 3.5 bay.

Other Thoughts: For the money, you can't go wrong. Nothing fancy but it gets the job done and that's all you really need.

1 out of 5 eggsJunk!

Pros: None

Cons: Fit and finish are lousy. Both side panels were bent and had to be straightened. You could still see the bends. The bottom was bent downward on one side and the side panel on that side didn't completely cover the side and framework of the computer. The sides are flimsy and there are no grooves on the bottom to support the side panels. The frame wasn't square. It looks like this case was thrown together in a hurry without any kind of quality control. This is the worst fitting case I have ever bought. The price is too high for the quality of the case. It looks like a factory second or reject and I can't believe this passed any kind of inspection. The only reason that I didn't return it is the shipping costs.

Other Thoughts: I would advise not buying this case.

5 out of 5 eggsNice case

Pros: Cheap, high quality case. I was surprized how nice this case actually turned out to be. I paid 29.99 it was on sale with a mail in rebate too.

Cons: none

3 out of 5 eggs

Pros: 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.

Cons: 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.

Other Thoughts: 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.

5 out of 5 eggsCheap but good!

Pros: One of those cheap cases for a low cost rig. Yet it looks good and none of the 4 folks I've built systems for with this case has complained. In fact 3 of them loved it. I'm still using one for my Linux box. It has enough room for products that would more than likely go into it. I didn't encounter any sharp edges.

Cons: It is a cheap case so none of the better features. But better features aren't expected.

Other Thoughts: Would easily buy this case for a low cost build. I gave it a 5 stars not because I think is better than some $100 cases but because for what it costs, it was a sweet deal. It is NOT fair IMHO to rate or compare this case to others that cost a lot more.

Cheap cases are getting better features and as they do, this will get a lower rating from me if it doesn't keep up with the rest.

5 out of 5 eggsGood deal

Pros: Used it for a new computer build a year ago.
It has lots of cooling options and much to my surprise it is very quiet.

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: Newegg is the only plae I buy computer parts from because took of their service and prices.
