ENERMAX OSTROG

-Spacious
-Elegant looking
-3 quiet fans with 3-pins
-Adequate space behind motherboard for cable management
-Removable drive cages to improve air flow
-Can fit Corsair h100/h100i sort of. See other thoughts

-Not enough space at the top of the case for 8/4 CPU cable. I had to buy an extension cable. An extra inch of space could have provided a cutoff
-The included SSD cage has the wrong orientation when moved on top of the lower HDD cage to make way for a long power supply unit or for a fan to be installed

-To get the H100/H100i to work, I had to mount only the bare unit inside the case using the two 12cm at the top with no fans
-The 8-pin CPU cable was in the way of fan 1 and the RAM modules were in the way of fan 2 ( AM3+ board)
-So the fans went outside the case with grills (another purchase). Luckily the fan cables were long enough to be threaded through the provided holes in the back.
-So the case can handle the h100s but some elbow grease is required!

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Good case barely room enough for my hardware though

good space for cable managing

It's a shame that the window is not totally clear instead of the dark smoke color I wanted a cased with a window to be able to see the cool stuff inside and this one is so dark you can barely see inside, which defeat the purpose of having it

I have a captain 240 cooler for the cpu and a GeForce GTX980Ti Hybrid and I had to do a lot of McGyvering to be able to fit them inside this case along the Gigabyte z170 gaming GT. But after all I managed to do it so the (too) dark window is the biggest disappointment, even with all the LEDs on inside you can barely see through the dark window.
