Pros: Incredible case. Well built, allows you to build a very quiet, cool, high-performance system. Lots of space, all my components fit without a problem. The optical drive lined up perfectly and installation was a snap - that's usually been an issue. 120mm fan is great - it's the only horizontal HTPC case with a big fan that looks decent, IMHO. The rubber grommets on the back of the case (there for a WC setup, I assume) worked great for feeding some cables through to power some external fNexus 120mm fans that keep my HTPC furniture cabinet cool.

Cons: Expensive, big (but nice and roomy - I'm done with microATX forever), expensive. It should have included the fans under the HD cages for this price.

Overall Review: At first I was a bit hesitant to get this case because of it's size and looks, however now that I have experience with it and everything went so smoothly with it, I'm extremely impressed. I replaced the stock fan with a Noctua NF-S12 for even more silence.

Pros: The case itself is very nice High Quality The ABIT IP35 pro fits but the SATA connectors are very tight when plugged in... still works but very tight. This case is huge.. Tuniq 120 HSF fits in here with a little over an inch of clearance. the 120MM fan is nice and quiet. The display looks cool when lit up.

Cons: Even if the case is huge it's very tight inside cable routing can be a pain in the rear. it should have came with two 92mm fans for the intake at close to Four hundred dollars. The USB Card Reader didnt work at all. I'm not RMAing the whole case so i hope their support is good and will just change out the reader... I had to change the bios for USB 2.0 from Quick to Fast and slow speed so the display would work. choose your PowerSupply wisely and make sure the cabled will reach the motherboard the OCZ 600 almost didnt reach the 8 pin power. the top of the case is removed with 8 hex bolts.

Overall Review: I would buy it again if i needed another HTPC case. and i would have changed motherboard to something with better SATA placment.

Pros: Has room for an Nvidia 8800 GTX, 120 mm fans, water cooling etc - rare for HTPC. Well made (solid) and I've had no problems with the remote control using Vista. The function dial, voluem dial, remote and display are all well made, feel professional and slick. This is a great case!

Cons: Not really a con but obviously to fit into 17 inches wide and accomodate 120 mm fans above the motherboard it needs to be both deep and tall. This is a solid and big case - but that is what you are paying for.

Overall Review: My set up - Asus P5K deluxe, XLR8 8800 GTX, Thermaltake liquid cooling (with fan on the inside), LG blu-ray / HD DVD, 4GB corsair ram, Vista Ulitmate. Overall - a great case.

Pros: As far as media center PC cases go this is among the best. It really looks at impressive in your entertainment cabinet. The front display gives you lots of information. DVD drive fit perfect the first time and the soft close door is very smooth. Lot's of room for hard drives!

Cons: Not for the first timer. Lot's of assembly then disassembly trying to put things together in the right order. With 6 hard drives, graphics card, 2 tuners, Zalman CPU Cooler and Seagate PSU there is very little space left, and cable management is very difficult.

Overall Review: I build MediaCcenter PC's for Movie servers, and this is my new go to case.

Pros: This case is built solid. Nothing on it seems flimsy or cheap. I've been told by others who have seen it that it looks like an AV Receiver, which is exactly what I want it to look like, as this allows it to blend into a home entertainment setup. The brightness of the display and LEDs is just right and the customization capabilities of what is shown on the display is quite sufficient for my needs. The covers for the optical drive close smoothly and quietly.

Cons: The problems that I had with this case are minor compared with the end result in my opinion, but there were enough of them for warranting one egg lost in my rating. 1. The display on the front of my case was installed a little crooked. I haven't been able to fix it yet, but I'm going to give it another try in the near future. 2. Although this case is bigger than many HTPC cases, it's still hard to work in it in some areas. I would have liked it if the hard drive cages were more easily removable. 3. I wish that the manual was a little more detailed and easier to understand. 4. The spring for the cover for the optical drive is a little too stiff and causes the tray to stick when it opens (just touching the cover after it sticks solves this). This could be also be a result of an old/weak motor in my DVD drive. I'll find out as soon as my Blu-Ray drive arrives.

Overall Review: If you use this case, I recommend that you plan out your installation process as it gets cramped very quickly. Based on my experience, here is what I recommend. 1. Install/Replace fans (remove hard drive cages if necessary) 2. Install hard drives (without cables) 3. Install motherboard, video, and sound cards 4. Install power supply 5. Attach cables 6. Install optical drive The card reader can be replaced with any 3.5-in external device of your choosing if you wish. I also replaced the 120mm fan with a Noctua fan and also added the 92mm fans.

Pros: HIGH quality, solid, machined pefectly. Cant ask for more. Parts went together perfect. Not for the first timer. If you know what you are doing, this will blow your mind. Very big case, but thats what makes it great. You can fit everything in this case just like a mid tower. Beautiful finish, nice LCD display, tray and bottom flap have dampeners in them so it just dosent flip open, opens SMOOOOOOOOTHLY. Great feature. Cable are plenty long enough to reach all the ports of my ASUS Rampage Board. The two Diamond HD 4670 1GB DDR3 Graphics cards fit with no problems. Thermaltake CL-P0466 Heat sink and fan fit like they were made to go together. With one exhaust fan, I run at 29C during COD4 on ultra high settings.

Cons: not a con for the case, just make sure that your board has sata ports that face up. Mine face to the side and it was a pain in the .... to get just two of the 8 in.

Overall Review: Tech support was awesome. No recording, a real live person answered the call and answered every question I had about the unit. I wanted to know about the LCD and he answered greatly! Best experience I have ever had with a case.

Pros: Size. You have a lot of room for component, Hard drives, ETC. I added the cross flow fans and 2 92mm fan, System was still quite enough to not be a distraction. Ventilation was very good. Looks. This is a beautiful case, and really stands out in a Home theater set up. Everything is well built and case feels sturdy and strong.

Cons: Size. I had to remove the feet just to fit it in my TV stand. They really could have made it about an inch shorter with no issues. Optical drive sits in a bad spot if you use a 280gtx card. back of drive will sit on top of power connectors putting your drive on a slight angle. Not a real big deal but still annoying. Display. Its nice to see whats going on, see the news headlines, etc. but the display has a very annoying blink as it scrolls by. distracting and it only gets worse as you speed the scroll speed up. I expected a lot more from it. Also blue led it way to bright. It will light up an entire room. Very distracting while watching a movie in the dark.

Overall Review: I would probably not purchase this case for my self, but would recommend it to others. I built A HTPC for my brother with this case.

Pros: Of the many cases I've purchased in the past, this one is of the highest quality. It looks great in the entertainment center and it provided lots of room for a full size ATX motherboard, a 8600GT, and 4 hard drives at this point.

Cons: While the case itself is excellent, I took an egg off for the display. Frontview isn't the most user friendly and options are limited. The remote is even worse since I have to point it right at the case for it to do anything. I'll probably end up using the Firefly remote I already have.

Overall Review: While not really a con, prepare to take some time to manage and route the wires. Also, my burner didn't line up right with the door, but is easily fixed by adding washers or making slight adjustments.
