This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Has power supply and fans already. Side panel easily removes for easy access Great for the price
Cons: Large Must open front panel to start. One fan slightly noisy at times. Power supply only had 4 pin plugs
Other Thoughts: This was my first computer build and this case really brought things together nicely. I did have to buy an adapter for the power supply for my hard drive ($ 3.00 Local store) It does have a very techy look with the 3 blue lit meters in the front, the clear side panel and the blue lit fans. (This was not part of the reason for my buying) One fan will ocassionally be noisy at start up - but so far it quiets downs after a while. The front panel where the meters are has to be opened in order to get to the power button st start. Not as much of a niusiance as I had thought it would be.

Pros: As stated earlier but...
Cons: Get rid of the PSU included with this box unless you're just building an average, mid-performance system! It's rated at 420 watts, but it won't be enough to power a system with just ONE 7-series Geforce card and an old dual core AMD processor. Invest in a good PSU and get the bare box. The PSU that comes with this box is useless.

Going strong after 4 years

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Price and appearance. There's no other cases out there that looks similar, it's original. The metal is a bit thin, but it's durable enough. After 4 years and two moves (one to another country), the paint is still perfect. Not a single dent.
The gauges on the front all still work. Love the fan controller, and it still works too.
It moves enough air, but if you're buildng a high end system - ADD FANS. You'll need 2 x 80mm for the front and one 120mm (i think) for the back, then move the included rear 80mm to the side window.
It fits a Nvidia 9800 GTX+ (and similar cards), if you move the HD's down a few notches.
Easy enough to work in via the side panel with thumb screws.
Cons: It would be nice to be able to use bigger fans, but it did it's job well enough with the 5 fans I installed. Keep in mind, all parts are circa 2005, except the 9800GTX+. My system isn't putting off as much heat as some do these days.
It won't accomodate 2 large vid cards in SLI easily. The hard drives will get in the way.
I would prefer the "chrome" accents were real metal. Plastic chrome means this will never be a professional looking case, but still a nice gamer rig.
The side air duct did not match up to my CPU so I just removed it all together and stuck a fan there.
Only one air filter (side window). Also, clean that filter often or it will invert and start rubbing the fan.
All these "cons" are just minor things. After 4 years, I still like this case and it's held up pretty well in all that time.
Other Thoughts: AMD 64 4600 2.2GHZ dual core CPU 2 GB RAM Nvidia 9800 GTX+ 2 x SATA HD in RAID 0 ASUS A8N-SLI Motherbard Silverstone 600W PSU Sony Bravia 40 inch LCD TV
...just thought I'd review this since I'm finally buildng a new system after all this time and realized...I had this one for 4 years and this old box is still doing pretty well!
