4 out of 5 eggsIt, uh... well, it works.

Pros: It's a good-looking case for the price. Comes with a blue LED on the front panel, something I'm not sure is all that common with other cases in this price range. Came with more fans than what I was planning to install. They keep everything at a frosty 40C while idle, and nothing breaks 80C when under full load. Doesn't take up a lot of space either. All my friends use mid-ATX as their cases, and they're all a lot bigger due to the extra stuff around them.

Cons: I feel like it's a little flimsy, but that my be just me. I move my PC a lot, so the constant picking up/putting down/moving in the car has probably taken its toll.

Doesn't have any USB 3.0 ports on the front panel. No biggie.

Other Thoughts: Definitely a recommended case, I doubt you'd find anything better for this price point.

4 out of 5 eggsGreat case

Pros: Looks great, love the front panel USB and eSATA connections. Cable management is fair, lots of room to mount fans. I like the rubber supports for the Power Supply. Has a lot of features that $100 cases have for half the price

Cons: The screws on the side panels were put on by the incredible hulk. I had to use pliers and a towel to get the bottom two off, as I was scared I would chew out the screw head - it wasnt budging. Also, the front panel connection cables have nowhere really to live. Though the rest of the case has great options for cable management, the top port cables kinda hang out - they aren't black either so they don't exactly blend with the background.

4 out of 5 eggsGood Case, Price is good.

Pros: It's designed nicely, comes with 3 large fans(one is a blue led),has nice cable management, seems to circulate air well.

It looks nice too.

Cons: Not the strongest Material, but, that is actually also a bonus, as it is very light, and circulated air very well.

Other Thoughts: Good case, very worth it for the price.

5 out of 5 eggsPerfect!

Pros: It feel like a high quality case, no sharp edges, 3x 120mm/140mm fans pre-installed, lots of room for large cards and upgrades.

My first on a budget Rosewill case and i'm impressed, it feels really solid and not cheap at all.

Cons: None.

Other Thoughts: Will be buying more Rosewill products!

5 out of 5 eggsGreat Case!

Pros: Great looks, great cooling, great price. Everything fits properly and goes together easily. Plenty of fasteners included. No sharp edges inside. Both side panels come off for easy access (mandatory for sideways mounted drives). Pritteh blue LEDs in the front fan.

Cons: Front panel headphones & mic jacks are too tight.
2.5" plastic drive tray should have been metal IMHO.
Case is snug, but hey, it's a mid tower, not really much of a con. If you need more room inside, then get a full tower and quite complaining.

Other Thoughts: Buy it on sale!
These things fit inside mine:
GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 motherboard
GIGABYTE GV-R927OC-2GD video card
ARCTIC Freezer 7 Pro Rev. 2 CPU cooler
EVGA 110-B1-0750-VR power supply
And the rest of the usual stuff...

4 out of 5 eggsGood Case for my first ever PC Build

Pros: Really good price, looks roomy, cool aesthetic straight out of the box, got here lightning fast(ordered monday, got it today wednesday) in one piece and undamaged.

Cons: it's a cheap case, but I'm not travelling with this thing, and I'm not running 2 video cards.

5 out of 5 eggsPretty. Sleek. I wish my gf looked this good

Pros: Comes with 3 case fans, I love the matte black, front LED adds just enough cool without giving bystanders an epileptic fit, and highlights one of the case fans nicely- best use of LED I've seen imo. Screws were positioned very well and for the first time ever I have a mobo bolted in completely. Front facing connections are classy and work.

Cons: Power button gets jammed easily. I am now careful with it and it operates just fine but if you push it down at an angle it can become stuck. I bought it flowers yesterday but it won't return my calls.

Other Thoughts: I don't hit the power button very often so I don't even care about such a small detail.

4 out of 5 eggsGet what you pay for

Pros: Product as described, nice blue light on front

Cons: Loud fans, lots of plastic. Vibration when fans spin. Hard-drive mounting was strange and would be difficult for someones first build. Afraid to take front panel off due to flimsy plastic possibly breaking.

Other Thoughts: I bought a cheap case, and received a cheap case. No harm done
