Fractal Design Define R4 Black Window Silent ATX Midtower Computer Case
Fractal Design Define R4 Black Window Silent ATX Midtower Computer Case

Pros: This case is very wide giving lots of room for tall cpu coolers and whatnot. You will have no problem with fitting a CM Hyper 212 evo in this thing. In my old case the cooler touched the window and its not even close in this one. Cable management is incredible. There is plenty of room to shove all that stuff back there. And you have a few options as far as doing that. There are a ton of drive bays in the front if you need them but if you don't, you can remove them for extra air flow like I did. This case also does an excellent job at absorbing sound from within. It is literally silent unless you have a loud cpu fan or something but even that is significantly reduced when comparing to other cases.

Cons: I would like to be able to turn the bottom drive cage like the top one to get better airflow from a second fan but its not a huge deal and certainly not worth taking off an egg to this case.

Overall Review: This case is pretty heavy. Some people might see that as a con but I like it. The side panels are way thicker and sturdier than a lot of other cases. I also like how the front fans simply snap into place. Makes them very easy to install. (Not that its hard to install fans in the first place.) All in all, this case is fantastic. Definitely the best case I have owned. I got this case for $80 on sale but I would say this case is worth double that.
