Pros: Build quality is excellent and the details such as a PSU removable intake filter and spacious room behind the mobo tray to route cables are nice touches. The top fan provided is a 140mm and the top offers mounting holes for a 240 or 280 radiator. Hard drive cages can be rotated any direction. The front 120mm intake fan allows for the mounting of another 120mm fan. The fans are whisper quiet under full power and are sleeved. The all black interior with white accents on the HD trays and expansion slots are well done.

Cons: none

Overall Review: Even though the front bezel is plastic, the level of detail in making it appear as brushed aluminum is manufactured quite well. It would fool anyone just looking at it until the actually tapped on it. This is a great, spacious micro-ATX case! Well worth your consideration.

Pros: This case is absolutely beautiful, it has a simple yet elegant design and the pictures don't even do it justice. It has excellent fan options and dust filters, plenty of cable management space, and even supports liquid cooling. The ability to remove a hard drive cage if you wish for a larger video card or just simply for better airflow is a very nice feature as well. Bottom mounted powersupply has and always will be in my opinion and experience vastly superior to top mounted... Offers 2 USB2.0 and 1 USB3.0 (using a motherboard header cable) which I prefer as I don't like having to route a cable out my case into a USB3.0 Port on my motherboard... Also has the standard headphone/microphone ports, nice Power button with a very sturdy feel to it not so easy to accidentally push and has both the power LED/HDD Activity LED built into it (Power=Blue HDD=Orange). Overall I am INCREDIBLY pleased with this case and I am ordering the mid size as well.

Cons: Well... If I had to pick some cons, the fan controller that comes with this case doesn't exactly seem to be the best.. It may have been intended to do this but when switched to the lowest setting 2 of the fans that come with the case shut off and only one remains on, I haven't tested it but I suspect the first "Fan port" on the Controller gets power and the 2 ports there after do not get enough power to spin the fans causing them to simply stop spinning. The front USB ports are also INCREDIBLY tight and you might break a USB device if you aren't careful until you "break" them in. Same goes for the vertical card slot, the others seem fine however. The top/front panel dust filters seem like they could have been done better by using a similar method as the bottom dust filter and the material pokes out the mesh panels a bit but you can't tell unless you are touching or really looking for it. Lastly it is rather large for a Micro ATX case.

Overall Review: Now while I did list some cons don't be mislead, I was really trying to complain about the case to provide a helpful review. I am absolutely in love with this case and it deserves more than 5/5 eggs in my opinion, and if you knew me.. I am almost never satisfied with any computer case and manage to find something(s) that end up making me rate then 3/5 and I do build ALOT of computer systems be it for myself or a client. Stop thinking about it, buy the case, after you get it and set your system up you will think you made off like a bandit only paying 100$ for this case.

Pros: I've favored the Antec Sonata series the past few builds. While those are nice cases, the Fractal Arc Midi blew them away in terms of thoughtful design. Wire management and future proofing are well thought out by Fractal. This is the easiest build I've ever done and it is in large part due to the design of this case. I was worried about fan noise (in my system-the 3 fans that come with the case plus CPU cooler, PSU and graphics card) but it is fairly quiet. The case also is designed for water cooling solutions. I don't like cases that have lots of lights and acrylic panels. This case has an elegant, clean design. The only glitch was that the reset switch would not work on my case. One phone call to Fractal's US support number (late in the day on the Friday after Thanksgiving no less!) and I had a replacement switch immediately shipped. If you are considering the Fractal, go for it. Looks good under the desk and should handle future upgrades/builds.

Cons: None. I don't consider the bad reset switch a Con because those things happen and Fractal quickly sent out a replacement which worked like a charm.

Overall Review: I don't normally write product reviews (positive or negative) but this is a good product which the company stands behind when things aren't right. You can't ask for more these days. Should also mention NewEgg's typical proficient delivery of my order. The case arrived undamaged and in pristine condition.

Pros: Excellent fit and finish, looks good, 3 quiet and adjustable fans, lots of room for 3.5 inch drives, good cable management, all the panels come off.

Cons: Trying to get a 3.5 card reader into the adapter was a bit of a chore, and if you push the top mounted on/off switch too hard it will retreat into the top.

Overall Review: Isn't it way past time for case manufacturers and motherboard manufacturers to agree on a 12 pin connector for the on/off switch, reset, hd light, speaker, etc instead of having 5 tiny connectors?

Pros: The construction of this case is fantastic. It's heavy and sturdy. I was shocked when I pulled it out of the box. I was skeptical buying a case from a company I wasn't familiar with but will be buying more of these. The hard drive trays are metal, not plastic and hold the drive very nicely. They also support 2.5 drives without any adapter. The hardware was nicely organized in packages The floppy drive bay can house a hard drive or a floppy drive. You pick 6 hard drive bays for a micro atx case? Unheard of. I decided to remove the top bay and utilize only the bottom 3 opening up airflow of the front fan Quiet. My stock 970 fan is louder. Also supports the quiet functions of the motherboard which help a lot The power supply mounting location is on the bottom and has a vent to allow for the PS hot air to be pushed out the bottom instead of through the case. Has a PCI slot fan speed control and the PCI slot is in a location that doesn't take up your PCI slots on the mobo. It's located in it's own little area. I hate it when you get those fan speed controls but end up taking up a PCI slot

Cons: No ESATA up front. Not really a fault of Fractal, but the USB3.0 ports up front are that of a header cable and I just so happen to buy a mobo without a USB3.0 header (ASUS Rampage III Gene LGA 1366)

Overall Review: I think I'll be buying these cases from now on

Pros: Lots of ventilation 2 solid 140mm fans included Dust filter on bottom (for PSU) Great for cable management (both side panels easy to remove) 6 easy-to-remove Drive slots in 2 bays Case fan dial controller for up to 3 fans USB 3.0

Cons: None that I saw

Overall Review: I used this case to build my first ever computer. All the extra features and gadgets of the case made set up not only easy and efficient but FUN. I had so much flexibility with this case, particularly with cable management and drive location. Love this case, will be buying Fractal for my next one as well.

Pros: I used this case for my parents new PC. It was the third computer I have built, and the first two were gaming beasts in big cases, so those were a breeze. I checked out a lot of MicroATXmini towers and this case had some great reviews and in looking at the pictures it seemed like it would be nice to build in. Let me tell you, it was great. The case is set up really nice, a lot of fan spots in a small case, nice filters, removable HDD cages, and the inside is even painted black. The cable management was really nice, the semi modular PSU was helpful with that as well, but there was plenty of room for cables behind the MoBo tray. I am contemplating using this case for my next rig, I want something small and more portable than my HAF 912 rig. I would recommend this case to anyone. Cheers.

Cons: None that I can think of right now. Even the fans that came with it are nice.

Pros: Superb design and build quality. Every part of this case feels solid. Good cable management. Stock fans w/ included controller are QUIET. Screw box included was organized, with plenty of extra hardware ect.. Removable and rotatable middle HDD cage is great.

Cons: As someone before mentioned, a couple of my thumb screws' threading was off. This is so incredibly minor in light of how great this case is. There were plenty of well threaded replacements.

Overall Review: This case has blown me away. The thought to design and quality are evident everywhere. Do not hesitate.
