Slim case
Pros: This case is super sleek. It has room for installing things pretty easily. It comes with enough space for a microATX motherboard. The quality for price ratio is fantastic. It is painted inside and out and has safe rolled metal all around. It seems sturdy and comes with some extra screws and such. It comes with one 92mm fan that is a bit noisy, but I did not buy it for the fan anyways. It comes with the ability to attach and extra 5 fans so six total (3 120 mm, 3 92mm). My cpu is running at about 14-20 degrees Celsius with three 120mm fans added. I actually get chilly sitting next to the thing. It provides for a bit of cable management with a couple openings that let you run cables into the front plate. I would say that all in all this case is worth it and then some. The USB headers are on the top. And the power and reset buttons are nice quality. They do not feel cheap when pressing on them.
Cons: For all the things I love about this case, I did run into a few things I did not like. 1. expansion slots are pop out and not screw mounted. 2. The thumb scews are not made of metal all the way round. They come with a plastic head, which leads to damage when tightening with a screw driver. 3. need more motherboard headers(found out that they do come with 7 and two plastic snaps for support.
Overall Review: Wish they would just put some extra motherboard headers in there. And the thumb screws should be metal. All in all. This case is pretty freaking awesome! I like it and my wife likes it. It is a good compromise when it comes to size for both me and her since it is a smaller case in general. I am surprised more people haven't bought this. It is a great case
"Video-In Not working correctly"
Pros: It has a clear picture and works well with my computer. Not a problem there. Very quick to turn on and off. Looks pretty sweet.
Cons: Whenever I put the video cable in the projector, it shows about 4 images of the Wii or PS2 flickers and then turns it self off. Another frustrating thing, is that it is all automated, so it chooses the refresh rate automatically and is quite frustrating. Also, calling Acer to see if they could help, no one to answer, and message did not explain when the regular hours of operation are. I am going to see if I can get my Wii working with a s-video cable, crossing my fingers. If it works I will revise this post and give a 5.
Overall Review: I will contact newegg and Acer if the s-video doesn't work either.
