Pros: I already wrote a review on this case but wanted to update it. Huge amount of space in this case with superior cooling capabilities. If your looking to buy this case, buy the 92mm fan that goes in the chassis and 3 80mm fans to fill the spots designed for them.The airflow is amazing. I've never overclocked my CPU because it always ran a bit hot and I was afraid to. I just overclocked my P4 2.8/ 800 FSB to 3390 Mhz, so basically 3.4 and it's idleing at 32-33 Celcius....amazing....I HIGHLY recommend this case for anyone who wants superior cooling and rock solid quality.
Cons: The front door I guess is a little flimsy if you compare it to the rest of the case. I've ordered 2 of these bad boys and both cases arrived fine. So if that's holding you back I wouldn't let it, you'll be missing out on the best cases you can buy for this kind of money.
Overall Review: I couldn't be any happier. After cranking my CPU to a 3.4 and running cooler than it ever has, even cooler than stock 2.8 in my other case AND saving the money I was going to spend to upgrade my CPU, I think I'm more than pleased. Now I have the money to upgrade my video card and savor the life of my P4/AGP system for another year or 2 before dropping a bundle building another PC.
