LOGISYS Computer SECC mATX Mid Tower / Micro ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

The mid tower case is built with sturdy and strong SECC sheet metal. It is painted with two tone black coating – one piano-like glossy coating, one matte black coating - inside and out! On the front, there are six 5.25" mesh movable panels for better air circulation; there are POWER and RESET buttons located on the top of the front panel. Two USB 2.0 and one USB 3.0, as well as audio jacks are built on the top of the front panel for easy frontal access.

A 12cm ball bearing fan and 480W (max.) ATX power supply is included in the case package. The power supply was installed in the lower portoin of the case, which became popular in modern PC chassis designs as it makes the assembly and installation easy and saves more room for upgradability and expandability. A 12cm fan comes preinstalled in the rear panel. On the side panel, there is a long rectangle mesh window for side air circulation.

5 out of 5 eggsBudget HTPC

Pros: Awesome amount of space.
Comes with power supply & fan.
Both sides open.

Cons: Reset button doesn't work for me.
One front panel got knocked in and won't stay back in the original position anymore.

Other Thoughts: This was great for me to build my buget HTPC until I get a smart TV. I will be using this as a desktop PC once I get a smart TV, but it looks like it will hold more than I could want. I have a 1TB HDD and a SSD boot drive, no power issues at all with my AMD setup.

4 out of 5 eggsSome miss information

Pros: Nice construction and internal layout. All vents have dust filters. Top mounted switches and ports, great for setting unit on the floor under a desk. Plenty of screws and the included fan (120) is quiet.

Cons: The two (and only) SATA power connectors are about three inches apart so you will need and adapter for a sata CD/DVD ROM. The box has miss information about the bays. There are no Ext 3.5 bay. There is only one usable 5.25 ext bay. There is an internal 5.25 bay??? The 2 3.5 internal bays are at the bottom along with 1 2.5 inch. There is 1more 3.5bay under the 5.25 but you will need to screw mount a drive there.

1 out of 5 eggsLOGISYS Micro/Mid Tower Case ?

Pros: Looks like it has potential

Cons: Was delivered in many,many,many pieces. Front cover snapped off, vented areas in front smashed in. Had to shake the unit for 5 minutes to dislodge all the screws and broken pieces. Side panel smashed and bent where it joins the back panel one of special attaching screws bent at 45 deg angle. Just a mess....

Other Thoughts: Very, very disappointed. there was styrofoam, but obviously to have this much damage, this unit must have literally fell of the truck and bounced down the highway before it arrived.

4 out of 5 eggsEasy to work with, not bad for the price.

Pros: Access: This case was easy to get into since it does have thumb screws for the side panels and they slide on and off easily. No bars or brackets in the way inside other than two drive cages, one in the top front and one in the bottom near the front.

Connections and Routing: The front panel connections are fairly long and were able to reach to the rear of the motherboard when routed behind the MoBo tray so it makes it a lot easier to have things clean and neat. The Audio connector is able to support HD audio or AC97 as two plugs are hooked to the same connection. The USB 2.0 connector is a standard size with two round cables running to the front panel, the USB 3.0 connection is a single blue cable with a standard Intel design this will however take the full header and only provide one USB3.0 port to the front. I was also able to route the main MoBo power behind the tray and bring it up through one of the openings to supply power. All the edges for the MoBo tray are rounded and smooth so I am not worried that the cables will be scrapped up or damaged in any way. I would have liked to see a single bonded cable bringing the MoBo controls and LED power to the front but they used four separate pairs to do this otherwise the connectors are pretty standard fair and all but the power led are paired connectors with the power led being single plug in case the connection needs a spacer pin. A small speaker is included to plug on to the MoBo header.

Front and rear Panel: The power switch is easily accessible and large enough to find by feel so this will be great for my mother in law if she needs to turn the computer on. The power LED is blue and the HDD one is red, they both shine at the same point so when the drive is being accessed it actually shows purple and blue the rest of the time. The reset switch is small and more protected so should not be inadvertently bumped. Four slots for the rear expansion that are held by one screw each so no breaking them out and having to find a blank later on should you need it. Single large fan in the rear top to vent though it uses a molex connector not a MB 3pin header.

The feet are a nice addition IMHO, since the PSU intakes through the bottom it will help insure that it has ample airflow and a minimum amount of dust and crud buildup. Bottom mounted PSU is nice and pretty standard now. The overall look of the case is pleasant and smooth with a gloss black finish the side panel intake is a matte grey. All of the intake points have a foam filter so dust infiltration should be a minimum. There are three caddies for mounting drives one in the top behind the front connectors and two in the bottom. The 5.25 inch bay is toolless as is the caddy above it. They sent a ton of screws and extra standoffs if you have a slightly larger motherboard.

Cons: The 4 pin Motherboard supplemental power cable needs to be about six inches longer. It has to go all the way to the top of the case on a lot of boards and it's too short to route nicely in my opinion. I tucked it behind the hold down on the pcie x16 slot and past the northbridge heatsink then around the cpu cooler and it just barely made it. With about 6 inches of extra cable it would have been able to route behind the tray and come up to plug in and stay out of the way and look much cleaner. And why only a 4pin I do not know, I would have expected a 4 pin plus 4 pin to provide 8 pin supplemental power to the board.

They sent four screws for a front fan to be installed and easily accessed from inside the case, this would be a 12cm fan just like the back which is very cool. The bad thing is the drive cage in the bottom of the case will prevent any fan that size from being installed unless you want to drill the rivets out and slide it back in the case about two inches and then drill new holes in the case so that you can insert the screws and barely be able to tighten them down.

The power supply needs a couple more sata power connectors. The case can support 8 drives but only has 7 power connectors included for drives and one is for a 3.5 inch floppy or a powered internal usb hub. Two SATA power plugs and four molex power plugs. Since most drives are now using SATA power you will burn up those two very quickly and will need adapters from molex to SATA. Plus with this case supporting multiple 2.5 inch drives you would figure that a lot of people would want SSD's and they need SATA power to function.

The back panel is flimsy and inserting the MoBo rear connector shield I had to be careful to place one hand to really support the area where I was pressing to get it to click into place and not deform the panel. The front panel blanks are a pain to get out if you want to insert a optical drive and don't want to remove the whole fascia.

It would have been nice to have an additional fan intake in the bottom for the case. And the side panel intake will probably be useless as you can not mount a fan to it unless you want to make a bracket for some 80mm fans. Why is the rear fan a Molex style connector? I would have opted for a 3pin to connect to the MoBo header.

No PCIe power connectors at all so if you need one plan to get an adapter or different PSU. The wires seem a little on the light side so I wouldn't plan to go throwing in a PCIe card that needs extra power and then install an adapter to pull the power from this PSU.

If you want to put in a memory card reader or internal USB hub that would normally fit into a 3.5 inch slot plan to get an adapter to make it work in this case. All of the front blanks are sized for a full size 5.25 inch drive, though the knockouts in the front have both the 3.5 and 5.25 inch variety.

Other Thoughts: Internal connector list:

USB 3.0 intel spec header x1
USB 2.0 header x1
combined ac97 and hdaudio cable with two connectors
power switch
reset switch
hdd led
power led

24 pin MoBo power x1
4 pin MoBo supplemental power x1
Sata power x2
4 pin molex x4
3.5 inch floppy power x1

Front connections:
2x USB 2.0
1X USB 3.0
1X Headphone jack
1X Microphone jack

I installed a ASUS M5A78L-M LX PLUS with a Phenom II x4 965 and 8GB of G.SKILL Sniper Series RAM. Used a 80 Gb SATA Laptop HDD and an ASUS DVD burner. Cpu was a pull from an upgraded system, the HDD was a pull from a damaged system and the DVD burner was a pull from a system that was not in use. Both the HDD and DVD drives were sata powered and sata connected so that used up the two connectors available.

I added a 80mm fan to the front and held it with one screw for some added airflow especially to run across the hdd and make sure it stays cool. Later I will probably add a 120mm fan to the front and move the drive cage in the bottom back so it can fit and change the rear fan to a 3 pin MoBo header fan.

This was a pretty much spare parts build to get my Mother in Law off of a 2.8ghz p4 Dell with 2Gb of ram and minimal expansion capabilities. I may toss an SSD in later on to give it a little more pep and could get her off the integrated radeon 3000 graphics but I doubt she will need that. As it all sits she is still doing a lot better than she was. She got a new computer and I am overall happy with the build. This case was easy to work with for the most part and has clean lines on the outside and easy routing on the inside.

4 out of 5 eggsGood Light Case

Pros: Easy to work with. Bought two of them. Power Supply was fine for one board I bought but not the other. Very Quiet fan and PS.

Cons: Only reason I'm giving a review is because the Power Supply only has one 4 pin Power Connector for the motherboard. The first motherboard I ordered with it just needed that one 4 pin but the second one I ordered needed an 8 pin connector. My fault for not thinking about it but just letting you all know.

2 out of 5 eggsGreat Case, but...

Pros: These cases are great to work with. The inside has plenty of room for components. I've worked with a lot of cases, and it's hard to beat, but...

Cons: ...out of the 4 cases we have ordered, the case has been warped in some way. If you don't mind this for your personal rig, then by all means, don't skip this case. Otherwise I wouldn't do it.

Good-looking for a microATX case.
Better looking than the pictures.

Other Thoughts: Not really sure what use the watercooling grommets could be.

Other reviewer who gave 1 star for their misread should remove his review.
