Pros: Great case. Solidly built; sturdy and no sharp edges anywhere. Toolless installation good for the most part. Looks great, the front LEDs can be unplugged. It's got enough space, it fits my gigantic HD6950 (not a whole lot of margin though). I don't have a problem with space for cables, as I only have one 5in slot used and I just tucked all my unused PSU cables in the bay. The included 120mm fans are almost completely silent. They don't move a whole lot of air, but it's adequate. I replaced the rear fan with a scythe s-flex "silent" fan that was WAY louder, but also moved about 2-3 times the amount of air.
Cons: It's probably a good idea to go ahead and screw in your video card, the expansion slot clips don't hold very strongly. They were fine for my sound card though. I wanted to put my hard drive in the forward-facing 3.5 in mount for cabling reasons. It eventually got in there, but the toolless slides were REALLY tight and had to be forced. The side-mounted bays with the rail system work fantastically though. I just didn't have a right angle sata connector that you'd need to avoid kinking one to fit. There is a front fan port, but you physically can't get a 120mm fan in there to screw it in. Proably could by cutting out some of the interfering structure, but in my mind, that's not acceptable. The CPU air duct doesn't line up right with my cpu. I've heard this is an AMD issue. The front panel requires a LOT of force to get off, I always feel like I'm going to break it.
Overall Review: I just use the stock AMD heatsink, so I don't know if there's enough room to mount one of those aftermarket monster coolers. You'd definitely have to remove the duct.
Hiding bad reviews?

Pros: Write speed seems fine, high even if it doesn't hit advertised.
Cons: Read speed is atrocious. Just like every other Team drive I've ever used, it can't maintain advertised speeds for much more than a couple seconds, if it ever hits them at all. Then it drops to BYTES per second or even completely 0 for several minutes, eventually ramping back up for another split second before repeating. To head off the common response by the manufacturer to this VERY common problem, no, it's not just windows showing the info incorrectly. It took HOURS (overnight) to copy the same data off the drive that it took only minutes to write in the first place. I did the math in the previous review that was deleted or never posted, and I don't remember the exact details now, but it was in the neighborhood of 4 mb/s averaged out over the whole about 100 gb transfer. I tried multiple computers, multiple file types (large videos and smaller pictures/documents), all behaved the same. It's DEFINITELY the drive.
Overall Review: I wrote this review already, and it never posted. Submission was confirmed and I never saw any notification about non-posting or deleting. Very suspicious. As I said then, I'm done buying from team group forever.
Good chair

Pros: Big enough, comfortable. At least for now, time will tell if it holds up. I'm 6'2", about 250 lb. Build quality seems sturdy with good material, I would believe it can hold 500 lb (as long as you physically fit)
Cons: Lumbar adjustment on its lowest setting is too aggressive, feels like it's strongly pushing me in the back at all times. Very little adjustment if you care about that, only moves up and down a couple of inches and off/on recline. Completely fixed armrests with closed off front. I like crossing my legs a lot and this gets in the way sometimes where the overhang type arms just let my legs underneath them. Pretty standard for this price range though. Biggest complaint is that the thing squeaks like HELL when I shift around in it, and I can't make it stop. It's not the swivel or reclining hinge, it's like floor creaking when you walk on it. Instructions provided were pretty good EXCEPT for they say that one of the arms is INSIDE the back rest, when in fact it is not. If I had just looked at all the pieces in the box first I would have seen this, but I read the instructions first and nearly ripped structural pieces out of the back trying to remove the "armrest" it said was in there
Overall Review: Chairs have been incredibly frustrating to buy, even in-person where you can test them out first, so I was VERY hesitant to buy this one online. Luckily the advertisement WASN'T a whole bunch of bulls..., this chair really is at least good enough for a decent price... which in today's chair market warrants 5 stars.
you get what you pay for

Pros: Cheap, large size
Cons: Cheap feeling construction SLOW. USB 3 can deliver 100 mb/s for only about a second before the slow memory fills up and you have to wait for writing to complete. I cycles constantly between 100 mb/s and effectively zero, drawing a mountain range on the window file transfer graph. It took about 10 minutes to transfer 20 GB of files, that works out to roughly 30 mb/s average write speed.
Overall Review: If you just want large size, this is fine, but you could probably also then just get a cheaper USB 2 stick. If you're looking for USB 3 speeds specifically, this isn't it, keep looking.
Absolutely silent

Pros: It's 100% silent. Looks great (no stupid RGB or ugly tan and brown). Includes long handle screwdriver for installation, cable splitter to run both fans off a single header if so desired. Steadies out at about 59.5 C in prime95 torture
Overall Review: I had a much longer, very detailed review before. But I just plain gave up trying to please the newegg morality censor. Apparently a ubiquitous acronym for expressing disbelief that does not stand for any "foul" words is "unacceptable". If you feel cheated out of a thought out, useful review, feel free to let newegg know it's their fault.
Not even close to silent

Pros: Feels well constructed. The mounting system is extremely fast and easy. Look nice.
Cons: This thing makes an EXTREMELY noticeable whine/hum that ramps up and down with the speed. Horribly distracting and never fades into the background. BRB unplugging, it's going to drive me insane if I listen for any longer. Very disappointed in this "ultra-quiet" "premium" fan. I don't have the tools to scientifically measure it, but most of my cheapo 120mm Cooler Master generic case fans that came in a 4 pack for about the same price as this one are quieter, and it feels like they move just as much air. They are admittedly flimsier and lack rubberized mounts, but I'd still be better off playing the fan lottery for particularly quiet ones than one of these. The one that this was intended to replace was about the same volume, it's just that its noise was more of a grindy rattle of cheap bearings. The other two in the case I don't hear at all. The fans on my Dark Rock 4 I don't hear at all. Before this, the only noise I heard at idle was the whirring of HDDs.
