Good fit/finish. Accepts full size drives. Comes with TT 220 watt power supply (SL-B220SFX). Power supply fan nearly silent. Got this on sale plus rebate and free shipping.
Full retail price a little high. Look for this on sale.
Decent size (about the size of a shoebox). All the power connecters you need for a case this size. This actually comes with a 220W power supply (not 200). The PS fan is so quiet I thought it wasn't working at first.
Installed an Intel D510MO motherboard, 2 GB DDR2 PC6400, and a 3.5 inch hard drive for a 24/7 server. I was able to install the motherboard without removing the power supply (use an offset screw driver). Temps seem fairly stable with just the power supply fan, no additional cooling. One thing to note, mounting a 3.5 hard drive in the front 3.5 bay worked, but the sata and power connectors sat right on top of my memory (actually touching). I moved it to the 5.25 bay so I have adequate space between all components.
Routing all the cables was tricky, I used several nylon ties so the wiring does not touch any heatsyncs etc. Would be a chore if you used all 3 drive bays, but the cables are long enough to tuck things out of the way. Overall met my expectations.
Very pretty, easy to work with, and the front panel cover is a nice addition. External 3.5 bay for a card reader, nice.
The psu is not compliant with atx12v version 2, as it only provides 15 amps on the 12v line, as opposed to the required 18. See other thoughts for full output.
If you intend on purchasing this case, ensure that your hardware only requires atx12v version 1.
+3.3v @ 12a, +5v @ 12a, +12v @ 15a, -12v @ 0.3a, +5vsb @ 2a.
