This review is from: Corsair Carbide Series 500R Arctic White Steel / Plastic ATX Mid Tower Gaming Case
Pros:
Large enough to accommodate everything I have:
Gigabyte Z68X-UD3H-B3
msi GTX 660 Twin Frozr
Corsair Vengeance 16GB
OCZ Modxstream Pro 600w
Comfy little hard drive tray fits my external perfectly
Tons of fans for lazy builders like me
The white lights around the fans are nice eye candy, it looks great and many friends have said so
Cons:
One of the fans, I suspect the largest one, began to be noisy and off-kilter. It sorted itself out, but knowing it may malfunction keeps me up some nights, pensive.
The USB 3.0 port on the right of the front panel broke within a few months. Not sure what happened there; I'd like to think I don't brute force things even when the 180 rule doesn't solve my USB insertion woes.
Overall Review:
I don't even want to see a large tower in person. This is a huge mid tower case.
