Pros: Will fit a full set of normal sized parts inside. There is even room to hide unused wires and cables. You can fully disassemble this case to install any configuration you want. Thre are 3 bays to install what you need and all 3 are removable. You can remove the center cage if you want to make room for longer video cards if you wish.

Cons: not really cons but a few things to consider before purchasing this case.
1.) video card length. if your going to use a stand alone card, watch its length. the hard drives can mount in the middle cage, there is an option to install a fan in the front of that cage and the back of the hard drives will stick out a little bit more if you do that. I use a HD4650 card. no problems. i think you can get away with a HD4830 length but a 4850 will NOT fit. you can always move the drive cage to the PSU side if you wish and free up room. but the fan in that bay might not have a good source of intake.

2.) PSU mount forces the intake fan on a traditional "bottom" of a PSU to suck air from the outside on the left. not fmor the inside of the case. be careful where you put this case as you might block the intake of the PSU. I use a PCP&C 400. takes air from vents around it not from the outside vent. works well. but if it sucked air form the inside of the case it might aid cooling.

Other Thoughts: PSU location is across the case from the motherboard so please check your ATX power attachment length. I run an e5200 inside this in an enclosed TV stand, with some holes cut in the back board just to allow the fans to breathe a bit. 100% load hits righ tat 60c. im going with an aftermarket cooling fan.

ones that fit. 92mm models that have a height no more than 126mm. (AC7 92mm model fits but just fits, zalmann 92mm fits. those styles work but the big 120mm stuff will not) the front fold down plate fits rather close, so anythign protruding out the bays (like fan controllers with knobs) wont let it fit flush. only fan controllers with flush buttons will fit.

This case has all the options you could need in a VERY affordable price. Very nice and conservative. it will match all other stereo equipment without drawing attention to itself. i recommend getting an external USB hub to plug into the back and have that sit on top of the console to plug anything in without having the door ope

Pros: Looks great underneath our television. Power button gives a nice clink. Front panel is easy to access. Fans keep a Core 2 Duo and an 8800 GT cool.

Cons: Difficult to install certain things like the hard drive and disk drive (if you are an idiot like me)

Other Thoughts: Take a moment to look it over before installing everything.
