Slick, sturdy, USB3.0, overall a nice case.

Powersupply has a PCIe connector

Vent on the side provides lots of fresh air to your video card, if you have one.

A bit bigger than I expected (but I guess that's necessary in order to fit a full length/height video card), but it still manages to feel a bit cramped, especially since the power supply isn't modular and there are a few (in my case) unnecessary connectors that are a pain to hide.

The fan on the front isn't PWM controlled (and is a bit light-winded), so if you have a PWM motherboard and plan on using anything that generates a decent amount of heat (say, an a10-6800k, or a fancy video card), you may want to replace it. I had a bit of an overheating issue, though I can't say for sure that it wasn't due to me futzing the heatsink install for my CPU.

I feel like they could have come up with a better configuration for the HDD cages; maybe allow you to remove the big drive cage and keep the small one, or allow some way to turn around your drive and still screw it down. Oh well...

I find myself craving a custom bezel for my slim dvd drive (small gap all around, not quite flush), but that's asking a bit much. lol

As far as cable routing goes, I put as many as I could between the HDD cage and the powersupply, routing them into the unused portion of the cage if they weren't needed, or when convenient. I had to use a 90° SATA cable to fit my slim HDD in the cage next to the video card.

If you plan to use a full size video card, be prepared to fiddle with it a bit before it settles into place. I just barely fit mine in.

The motherboard I have doesn't help the matter, having most of the connections on the right next to the smaller of the two side vents. That leaves the top vent (mostly blocked by the slim drive and PSU), the other side vent (blocked by the PCIe card, if present), and the vent for the PSU itself (which you probably don't want to pump heat through). Just remember to plan accordingly. ;)

As others have mentioned, there is no slim SATA adapter included.

Can't think of anything else, so...system specs:

Gigabyte GAF2A88XN-WIFI
AMD A10-6800K
8GBx1 Crucial Ballistic Sport (low-profile)
VisionTek RadeonHD 7770 GHz Ed.

Runs like a champ, except for the afore-mentioned overheating issues. Considering the purchase of an aftermarket heatsink with heatpipes and large fins (would work better than stock with the large fan pushing air over it, I would think), but need to measure it out to see what will fit first. For now, I'm just running my APU with the multiplier set to 21 (about half) to reduce heat build-up. If anyone has suggestions in this regard, please post them to my question on this product (not there yet, but should be soon) and not in the review section. Thanks! ^_^

Expected better

Small and quiet.

It requires a slim DVD drive but their is no slim sata adapter to actually power the drive.
The side of the case buckles to the touch like a warped cookie sheet.
The air intakes sort of ruin the appearance, showing a mess of cables inside.
It's not my favorite mini-ITX case in the end.
