Pros: This is a Killer Case if you have the room and the need to have expansion and keep it all very cool you cannot go wrong with this case. The tool-less design is mostly first class and makes it easy to install the motherboard, cards, and storage devices.

The latch has to be re-installed. One of the temperature probes for the SIM is not functioning and will require replacement. The SIM module required the addition of an internal USB connector that is if you want to have all the USB ports on the top of the case functioning (that is with a Gigabyte EX58-ud4p MB) I would assume the same issue for most other MB as it was mentioned in some of the reviews I read before ordering from NewEgg. The Case is Big but is not as

Overall Review: Bought from NewEgg and am very happy with the shipping and transaction details.
