my Case - the Black and Blue one

Looks good. it was cheap. removable HDD cages on the bottom. 5 fans included. good wiring for the I/O

Hope this helps with your build. Good lucky

terrible to try to get the CPU voltage line in the corner of the case to the board. so that hangs in the air. Also, really hard to removal front fans without removal of the HDDs cages. My Burner wont screw into place. The left side of case was super hard to remove the 1st time, cause the cables are bundled in a circle pressing on the side.

I looked at them all Corsair, NXRT, Cooler Master, etc. This one did the trick cause of the size, price and looks. Wish there was a solution to get the CPU voltage line in through the corner? Maybe Paul, Kyle , Jenny, Steve have suggestions on a video?

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Fantastic... for a while.

The case is is spacious, good cable management options.
The fans are nice and really good for stock case fans.
You can probably fit most any super long video card in it. I also love the bottom-mount PSU placement.

This case makes for an awesome and neat-looking build.

Alright... cons:
After about one year of ownership, the mesh metal panels(top and front) have begun showing rust. The case is just out of warranty so I cannot get it replaced. I think the powder coat on it was improperly set and simply took this amount of time to wear. This is my major con. The room this computer is in has fairly dry air. There are other computers and metal and electrical equipment in the same room and none of it shows any traces of rust. I am really at a loss.

Aside from this, any small cons I had are petty and preferential. Nothing major or of note.

I wish I could find replacement panels for the ones that have rusted. I actually got this for my fiancee in Christmas of 2013. He loves the case and we don't want to have to find a different one. It seems like Holiday purchases should lend some warranty extension through at least mid-January; they don't. I believe my issue to be an isolated event.
