Quality Case for the Cost

NZXT Source 210 Elite Black Steel with painted interior ATX Mid Tower Computer Case w/ Black Front Trim
NZXT Source 210 Elite Black Steel with painted interior ATX Mid Tower Computer Case w/ Black Front Trim

Pros: 1. The Cost 2. Plenty of harddrive bays for future use 3. Overall size to work in 4. (Mostly) Toolless design is easy 5. Well labeled 6. Standoffs come with screw adapter which makes for easy install.

Cons: 1. No 2.5' bay or adapter. The one labeled 2.5 hdd at the bottom is useless 2. Forces a lot of the cables towards the center of the case. You'll need some clever management to get them around back.

Overall Review: Far Warning: In order to install the power supply to the motherboard I had to unscrew the 140mm top fan and hold it off to the side. It is a very snug fit and you are going to want as thin and long of a cable as possible (maybe buy an extender or adapter).

Works

Pros: What else is there to say other than it works and it has plenty of room to hold my dual ram and gtx 760? If you're looking at buying this I think you know what you are in for

Cons: For a first build I was let down a bit by the the instruction booklet. It is basically one long youtube reference list. And when it isn't you wish it was because the photos are vague.

Overall Review: Getting the RAM in was a bit of a pain.
