COUGAR Challenger Black Steel ATX Computer Case with 12cm COUGAR TURBINE HYPER-SPIN Bearing Silent Fans and 20cm LED Fan

Pros: - Looks fierce and awesome!!!
- Bottom mount PSU
- Hard Drive Hot Swap feature (complicated to get working)
- Fits Giant graphics cards (fits my new 7970 perfect!!)
- It has 2 magnet dust filters that you can just slide off and rinse off when they get dusty.
- Comes with a generous amount of pre-installed dust filters.
- USB 3

Cons: - Absolutely worthless front panel thing. All it really is, is a plastic veneer. It was soooo cheaply made that the plastic braces broke in the shipping process. -1 egg for cheap front. I hate to knock anything off especially since the rest of the case is generally high quality.

-The USB 3 front panel connector is so dam big it does not fit with my Sabertooth 990fx motherboard :( However, I imagine if I take a knife and shave off some of that plastic around it I should get it to fit.

Other Thoughts: Be careful with this one. the front panel is cheap but the parts that did break off were easily fixed with a little bit of krazy glue.

Also remember, if you are getting a AMD Saberooth 990fx (or perhaps an intel Sabertooth but I cannot confirm) motherboard, you are going to have to use the USB 2.0 interface for the front panel. Thank goodness they actually provide that option :)

I really love this case though. It gets the job done and will get some attention at LAN parties.

Pros: The review I couldn't wait to get to! Everyone should have this tower, in my opinion! The thing you don't hear is how light this is with everything in it, compared to my old tower. It looks mean and intimidating. The hot swap for hard drives comes in handy for me as I do IT work for people.

This is my fourth computer build and without a doubt, the best, due to the ease of installation of hardware and being able to hide the cords with ease. The air flow (due to fan placement) is amazing, which allowed me to overclock my AMD six core processor to 4.4 GHz. Cougar really did an awesome job on the design of this tower!! I can't wait to see what the future holds. OHHHH, also, the price can't be beat, at $75, you can't go wrong! :)

One last thing, this tower had dust filters already installed and removable, that was a big selling point for me as well. I can't stand dust in the PC! My last one was being blown out every week it seemed. No, I don't have OCD, lol!

Cons: NONE :D

Other Thoughts: I currently have an AMD six core processor, Cooler master Hyper 212 CPU cooler (a beast), Sapphire Radeon HD 7950 (also a monster), Sound blaster X-Fi Champion sound card, 650W PSU, two 500GB HDD's, and a Blu-Ray burner. As I said before, this thing seems a lot lighter than other cases I have dealt with.

Pros: It's a really great case, it just came in today and I can already say I love it. It looks fabulous, I mean, it's like those Jet missile things. It's big enough on the inside to fit everything. I just love this case.

Cons: None really, maybe a bigger side window would be nice.

Pros: Spacious interior, easy to work with. Drive trays for both my 2.5" SSD and 3.5" HDD were easy to mount and install. Wire management works well, just make sure your power supply's cables are long enough to snake behind the motherboard panel and back out again to where they need to go, particularly the power cord to the CPU.

Large transparent side panel lets you see all your components and is perfect for cold-cathode lighting. I mounted two 12" cold-cathodes on mine along the top and bottom.

I'm only running an i5 with a single video card, GTX 660 Ti, and the included fans move enough air to keep everything cool, no need for more unless I put in more cards or start OC'ing. The filters work great, easy to remove and clean.

Cons: I'm not doing any water cooling, but the openings for water cooling lines in the back have to be punched out of fairly thick metal before you can put the supplied rubber grommets in. Be careful not to deform anything if you try.

Other Thoughts: A modern case (bottom-mount PSU, wire management, etc.) at a great price, plus a fun little flip-up power switch cover too.

Pros: Very Solid
Great Air Flow
Wire Management
2x USB 3.0
Decent Space for Mid Tower

Cons: Nothing worth acknowledging

Other Thoughts: Recommend if getting a mid sized tower!!!

Pros: Somewhat old School look and it has a launch button for a power switch. Great Cooling with great fan availability. Allows for changing of CPU fan without removing the motherboard. Breathes easily thanks to large "Mesh" areas. Perfect size that isn't too small or too big.

Cons: Sata Cable provided for the top Hard Drive slot isn't very long and may not work for all computer setups.

Other Thoughts: It has a launch switch, what more do you need?

Pros: Awesome looking chassis. Duh.
I bought an SSD as part of my system. The 2.5" trays came with the system. Moving the HD mounts to fit the smaller trays was very simple, small Phillips screwdriver required. Good news, you do not need to buy additional sleeves

The dust filters are very easy to remove and cover every opening of the system. Installing fans will be no trouble and you have your pick where to put them, top/bottom/ or side.

Behind the motherboard mount is a wire chase, to keep them out of the way. This obviously is for smooth airflow, but it was also much easier to install. No more worrying about zip ties.

The last thing is the giant window on the side. You'll be able to see your entire system. I hate the ones that have a 2x2" window.

Cons: There is one con about the chassis itself: The dust filter on the side of the case is on the outside, Since it's meant to be an intake fan, this makes sense, but it's very easy to bump off.

Other Thoughts: This thing is HUGE. Even measuring dimensions didn't do it justice. If you are not interested in liquid cooling and have less then 300mm graphics card, then this case is probably waaaay bigger then you need.

I would also recommend to whomever decides to buy it is to buy additional fans. The 200mm fan will put in a lot more air then the 120mm can pull out. Getting a couple of extra fans will solve this imbalance and keep your system running cooler. it's worth the 20 bucks or so to do it IMO

Pros: Comes with everything you need to get your tower up and running. VERY spacious. with the price, it's a definite steal

Cons: nothing really. The internal fans that come with the case hum a little loud but that's nothing to keep you from buying this

Pros: Looks awesome. Haven't got my Asrock a85xE6 yet, so I put in my ancient pc mobo just to use it in the new case for the time being. Ordered this case before 1pm, it was delivered to my house next day. Awesome. Huge fan for all the hard drives or whatever you rack up in the little bays, or whatever you call them. Just looks great. Oh yea, has a sata dock on top.

Cons: I got the black color. Why the orange fans Cougar? Red LEDs and 2 orange fans? Ewww. But I'll live.

Other Thoughts: Someone on these reviews mentioned the small space is for a floppy drive, and criticized the case for it, he should know they make "all in one" internal flash/sd card readers that size. At least thats what Im using it for.

Pros: I've been researching on cases for weeks for my first build, and was immediately sold on this one.
-Plenty of room for customization.
-Can turn either hard drive slots into SSD slots- or just remove them entirely.
-Awesome design
-Plenty of space behind back panel for cable management.

Cons: None! Though, I was only slightly worried about the size. It is a little to big, but for what it is- it's great!
