4 out of 5 eggsFine case

Pros: A good, solid case. Appealing and practical.

Cons: The hard drive bays were a very tight fit, scratched the paint off across the sides of my hard drives. No biggie. Also, there was no slack between the side of my board and the back of the case, so it was difficult seating my video card all the way into the slot. The measurements need adjustment.

Other Thoughts: My first fully-custom build in 2005 used the Raidmax Virgo case, and I was happy enough with it to give Raidmax another go. I'm glad I did!

4 out of 5 eggsGood for the money.

Pros: Case was really cheap which is always good, also looks nice. Really like the 80mm on the side window.

Cons: Made of cheap metal which is very flexable. Can't seem to get to the front fan to swap it.

Other Thoughts: Buy it, it's worth it.

3 out of 5 eggs Good temporary case

Pros: Looks cool, all the parts fit

Cons: It came with no instructions. I bought this for my very first build, and I had no idea what I was doing. There are many left over screws.
There is no cable management
LOUD
I had problems fitting in my graphics card. It barely fits, and it makes two of the HHD slots unusable. I had to force an EVGA GeForce GTX 560 TI into its slot (which was not fun) only to find out that it was right up against my hard drive.
Flimsy
Plastic scratches easily
BIGGEST COMPLAINT - About a week after I finished building my computer, the whole front panel (the USB ports and the audio connectors) died. It is unusable. If I want to connect even a flash drive, I have to turn around the whole computer.

Other Thoughts: Good for a short term case, I would not keep it for a while
Because of the problems I have been having with it, I am looking into buying other cases

5 out of 5 eggsGreat for the money

Pros: Looks sweet, lots of fans,matches my Niner Cave : )

Cons: A little flimsy and had to do some tweaking for the PCI cards to fit, but for the price you can't expect perfection.

Other Thoughts: If you know what all the hook up are for and have a little bit of imagination it is pretty simple. If you have low tech knowledge and get easily frustrated maybe get some one else to do it : )

1 out of 5 eggsCHEAP Plastic!!

Pros: I bought this case for a build for my Daughter back in 2010. All I can say is this, you get what you pay for.

Cons: It feels so cheaply made, the plastic drive bay covers fall off, activity lights malfunction, It's totally junk and not even worth $10.00..

Other Thoughts: DO NOT BUY/POOR BUILD QUALITY

4 out of 5 eggsGreat, Cheap case

Pros: Looks nice.
Has 3 fans.
All of the front panel cords were long enough. (unlike another case i had)
The Blue LED's are nice to look at.

Cons: I had to bend the back panel to fit my GPU (EVGA 660ti) that's a little ridiculous.

Other than that, it could have used a tool-less design. It did come with plenty of screws to hold the HDD and optical drive.

Other Thoughts: All-in-all it's a great, cheap case. If you're on a budget, get this. If you've got a little more money, maybe look at getting a higher quality one.

3 out of 5 eggs

Pros: Cool looking case

Cons: 1. No real room for new series card, I had trouble fitting a 660 in this thing.
2. Case is flimsy and I had to jam my 2.5 card reader and DVD drive into it to make it line up with the front of the case.
3. No real cable management spots
4. Gaps in case in important spots

Other Thoughts: Probably better out there for the money.

2 out of 5 eggsCheap, small.

Pros: Looked cool in the picture.

Cons: Front was broken on the case within a week. Cheap plastic bars fill the front of the case and are easily broken. Spend 20 extra bucks and buy something better.

1 out of 5 eggsDoesn't even power up..

Pros: None..

Cons: 1: In order to fit my graphics card, I had to cut the metal so the outside would stick out.
2: Very flimsy metal, breaks way too much.
3: The power switch wouldn't work when i put it on.

Other Thoughts: DO NOT BUY -- THIS CASE IS TOTAL #$^*!
EVEN IF YOU WANT A CHEAP CASE, GET AN ANTEC OR SOMETHING. SOO MUCH BETTER THAN THIS.
