Pros: Stable power, quiet, functional, elegant and understated. Modular cables make cable management a breeze.

Cons: None so far.

No noticeable slowdown at any point thus far - this machine is a beast.

Pros: Small size, excellent airflow, understated. White power LED is elegant. Easily fit a large GPU, with room to upgrade to a large CPU HSF in the future. Removable drive cages and decent cable management options.

Cons: The rolled bezel of the top PCI slot interferes with the HDMI port of my MSI 270X GPU. The cable baaarrrrely makes a connection - I'll probably have to take a dremel to it at some point. I eventually found a sweet spot between wiggling the card in its slot and angling the cable - not an ideal solution, but it works. Not worth knocking off an egg, as I'm pretty sure that this is a somewhat unique problem with this specific case/GPU combo, but it's worth mentioning.

No noticeable slowdown at any point thus far - this machine is a beast.

Pros: Rock-solid performance (7.5 in Windows 7). Lack of integrated graphics means significantly lower wattage - runs cool & quiet even with the stock HSF.

Cons: Lack of an integrated graphics solution somewhat limits its value from a non-gaming perspective.

No noticeable slowdown at any point thus far - this machine is a beast.

Pros: Z77 performance at a reasonable price from a reliable brand. Plenty of connections and features; easy to build a beast of a mATX machine.

Cons: If using a longer PCI-E graphics card, the layout of the connections (SATA in particular, as other reviewers have mentioned) leaves a bit to be desired.

No noticeable slowdown at any point thus far - this machine is a beast.

Pros: Incredibly quiet, rock-solid performance. Has taken everything I've thrown at it and just grins and asks for more.

Cons: None so far. This thing beats the pants off of my old XFX HD 6850.
