XION XON-570 Black SGCC Steel, Meshed Front Panel design ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: Nice little case. I bought this one as a sort of experimental build. I usually build huge machines and this was for a much older system that was not really that much to stuff into it.

Cons: It's a bit small. Only because the power supply I had simply filled it with wires. It was one of those old style 400 watters with huge wiring and connectors hanging off it.

See other thoughts.

Other Thoughts: I will be using a Modular power supply to finish this case. I am not one to give up on a build. I like to think that I can build small as well as big.

Pros: It's black inside

Cons: *So Small
*Metal bends easily.
*Don't even try to Manage Cables inside this.

Other Thoughts: Had to buy an other case , because this one is cheap , Theres no room inside of it. I dont even think tht my psu would fit in this case. GPU ? Dont even try to stick one in it.

I only give 2 eggs for it because of price and black interiour.

Pros: Great small case with good fan slots, looks cool. Top vent is a plus.

The case is built so well I was able to mod it and drill two billet handles on it. They work fine, and nothing is seen being stressed or cracking.

Cons: Cable management? It's okay though, just tie the cables and hide them away behind the case.

My heatsink is so big/ case is so small (But is good, that's why I bought it) that I had to put the 200mm fan on the outside. But, it looks cooler because blue leds on the outside :) just put a grill over it and you'll be fine. (Just put the cable in the case as much as possible then just put the cover on, it doesn't hurt the fans cable)

The Mistake: I was loading it out of my car and I hit in to hard on the bump on the end before the bumper where the trunk closes is and on of the feet broke off :c.

I superglued it and it is fine now though.

Pros: Well fabricated for strenth out of otherwise light gauge metal. Openair design that fits well for an enclosed space.

Cons: There was only two screws to hold the fan inplace

Other Thoughts: A USB 3.0 included in the knockout space would have been nice.

Pros: This a very well designed cased. I especially like how it is possible to install 120mm fans on the right side panel, which is a very rare feature on cases.

Cons: Even though the manufacturer specifies it can fit long cards, it's only the case for a single graphics card, your motherboard lines up the graphics slot to the SSD slot, and if you don't use up the SSD slot, at least for my 4870x2s, which measure about 11.5 inches, and extended underneath the SSD slot.

Other Thoughts: I really wish I was able to use this case for my build, I loved everything about it, except the limitation to graphic cards.

Pros: Good case. Plenty of bays. Practical. Does what a case should do. The pre-installed case fan in the front is a nice touch, though it isn't very powerful - still though, good for my needs. I love all the ventilation in this case.

Cons: A little small, and a little cramped for space for larger systems, though this may be very obvious to the experienced. Did not come with any instructions, labeling, or paper of any sort, but this is my first computer build, and I didn't have a single problem figuring it out.

Other Thoughts: I used this case to build the following system:

ASUS P8H67-V (REV 3.0) Motherboard
Intel i5
Coolermaster Hyper 212 Evo Heatsink (BARELY, fits in this case)
16GB RAM
Seagate Barracuda ST500DM002 HDD
LG Optical Drive

Pros: Great looking case, lots of room, really a very nice setup. Glad i purchased this

Cons: The light on the bottom of the unit is not nearly as bright as you might think, but this isn't a big deal to me.

Pros: It's a great case...solidly made, good looking, lots of room for expansion, and cool running right out of the box with stock cooling. The SSD mount is great....fans right out of the box are great...good location for the Front I/O panels..and even a little tray on the top to store your phone if you want (my MOBO has on/off charge...so I like that feature).

Cons: Use a little discretion if you plan to be in and out of this box every day swapping drives...you've got to take the power supply out to do anything with drives....that can get a little annoying...but I only had to do that once during build, and once since... I docked an egg for that..

Pros: The frame for this case is incredibly solid and lightweight. There are lots of ventilation grids and mounts for fans. I was able to equip a 200mm fan on interior side wall of the case and still fit in an 11" video card, and I would still have enough room for a second video card if I wanted to run a crossfire or SLI rig. The painted interior gives a very finished look to the case and looks quite impressive.

As for mounting my disk drives, there are no rail systems or locking mechanisms to hold your storage media in place. This case simply uses screws. This was a breath of fresh air for me, as this seemed to be much more simple for access to my storage media rather than playing with plastic rails or locks.

Cons: The only negative surprise was that this case did not come with any guide or instructions. For me this was not much of a problem as I have assembled a dozen or so computers. However, for anyone who is inexperienced with computer assembly, I would suggest getting a computer savvy friend to help you with identifying which screws are supposed to go into the motherboard standoffs, as there will be no guide to show you. This was not a substantial problem for me, so I did not deduct any eggs from my rating.

Another thing to note is that this case only includes the front interior case fan. However this is listed on the webpage, so it was no surprise to me. I ended up buying a 200mm and a 120mm case fan to add to the case. The inclusion of only one fan was listed in the details section of the webpage for this item, so I deducted no eggs.

Other Thoughts: Great case for the price! I would highly recommend it.

Pros: this is a good case for the money all the cabels in side are black and thin so they hide well. has rubber mounting for the hard drives and the powersuply

Cons: none
