XION Gaming Series Armor X AXP-ARM001-BL Black with Blue LED Light Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: Great case good build, This was my first build worked nice was a tight fit for mt GTX 275 NVIDIA card but it fit. I bought 2 side fans now its very cool nice airflow like the brezel and top power button and reset along with all the other odds and end to it over all good case

Cons: It was a tight fit but not really a con just make sure everything will fit for your build

Pros: Looks cool glowing blue, front door is magnetic, top side power supply mount, decent amount of room inside.

Cons: This case is extremely flimsy and is not worth the price. When I got mine, the thin side window was cracked and the fan had fallen off and was moving around in the case during shipment. Newegg took care of it by replacing it super fast for me so cudos to them!! 2nd case was not broken but there WAS a rivot that came out of the front door that on the prior case, was mounted in tight. The new case I could pull it right out but due to the location of it I wasnt worried too much about it. The outer pieces of the case are too thing and the inner stucture is even worse. Good luck not bending the inner parts of the case while trying to break the expansion slot tabs off! The screw slots for the hard drives and other expansion bays are not placed in the right position, so the HDD's stick out further than they have to causing there to be less room between them and the motionboard and wires. Also, where other cases only need 2 screws to secure HDD's, you really need 4 with this one :/

Overall Review: This case looks really nice but the only reason the price is $60 is cause $20-$30 of it is for the 2 fans that have glowing blue LED's. It is unfortunate that it is built so shotty. It would be nice to have 1 more fan also, but there is an expansion slot to add one of your own. The screws on this thing are really hard to keep from cross threading too. They give you a big bag of screws that hardly seem to fit what you need them to, so you have to try lots of them and hope you get one that is close. As for the shipping, I think it is not neweggs fault but the manufacturers.. it the side window was not so thin it would not crack during shipment so beware of that if you plan to build a system fast. I have tapped on the windows of other cases and have not worried about breaking them... don't tap too hard on this one though cause you will likely damage it.

Pros: easy to open side case air flow seems good

Cons: little bit flimsy

Overall Review: did the rebate when i bought it in December. Its mid-March already. I still didn't get my mail in rebate...

Pros: Durable Roomy Sleek looking Reliable Front dvd door bad has easy open/close magnet holders. Excellent cooling capability. Plenty of room to add more fans.

Cons: Power and reset buttons are located on the on top of case can be accidentally hit depending on how one had the computer located in their work/gaming area. Top most cd/dvd drive bay taken up with wires and unusable.

Overall Review: Over all an excellent case and great for building a solid gaming rig. It has enough room to easily work inside and enough ventilation for excellent cooling even with a six core Phenom II chip. Whilw the top dvd/cd bay may be taken up with the wiring for the pwr/reset swtich and top audio/usb ports, really, how many cd/dvd drives do you need to install? Definitely a case I'd buy again next time I need to build a new system.

Pros: It encloses the parts.

Cons: Some parts of the case are flimsy. The clear plastic side panel seems like it wouldn't take much to break (in fact, it came with a small crack by a fan screw). The door is also made of cheap plastic. I wouldn't be surprised if it gets busted off by accident soon. The thumbscrews for the side panel are partly plastic. The feet are hard plastic instead of rubber.

Overall Review: I'd be much happier with this case if I bought it for $20 instead of $55. It isn't worth that much. But hey... it works, so if the price drops, and you don't mind having a case with some flimsy parts, by all means... buy this one.

Pros: This case is maybe good for a first time builder.

Cons: Doesn't have very many functions and am getting rid of the older version of this case and using a Cooler Master HAF X. (I have two computers using this Xion case)

Pros: I've had this case for a year. This was my first build. I love the case. Looks nice and I love the blue leds. The power and reset button are easy to reach and you barely have to press them to make them work. Not flimsy at all. It's a tight fit with my graphics card and hard drive but it worked out fine. I just put the hard drive in a lower slot. I like the magnetic front door. The side panels are easy to remove. I found the front easy enough to take off. Much better than others where I've almost had to remove the front with a crowbar. LOL I have a Radeon 4890 and the stock fans keep it at 56-59 degrees unless it gets real hot in my apt. The temp still doesn't get out of the 60's so not hot at all. My hard drive stays in the 40 degree range as does my quad processor. Plenty of air flow for me.

Cons: None

Overall Review: I kept looking at the recommended cases and could never find one that looked good to me. I decided to look at all the cases when I found the Xion. I'm glad I did. Eventually I'll upgrade some fans and add another. Wish the interior was all black instead of gray.

Pros: Nice Lights. Very good design. Buttons on top are good for those have computer on the floor. The case is very strong. I like how the door on front is held by Magnets so it wont just randomly open.

Cons: NOT FREE! The screws that came with it arent great and the fans on it are cheap too. but I got replacements anyway so it didnt really mattter. none of this is enough to knock off an egg.

Overall Review: Make sure you Kepp it covered in fans not great for breathing with out them.
