Most Favorable Review

Really moves some air

Rexus NMB-MAT (Panaflo) 120mm Case Fan
Rexus NMB-MAT (Panaflo) 120mm Case Fan

Pros: CFM rating is no exaggeration, you could blow-dry hair with this fan. Excellent buy.

Cons: I can not believe the shipping charge for a fan in a box with this weight. Ludicrous.

You won't believe the speed

Pros: You can count to 7 mississippi after pressing the power button and you are able to click on the web browser and surf the net or select programs. To say this machine starts-up quick would be an understatement. Win 7 64 bit OS.

Cons: box comes empty with no drive cage/screws to mount in a tower. Make sure you purchase separately

Pleasantly surprised!

Pros: Twin opening side panels and slide-out motherboard tray made assembling my PC very easy. In the dark, this thing looks wicked with the glowing green highlights on the front door and side fan. This box is well built and I came away with no scratches from sharp edges.

Cons: Not really a "Con" but I like cases with locking side panels & front doors to keep the kiddies out of my toys. Neither exists here. Front door is held closed with magnets which are kind of weak in strength. This is really my only gripe.

Overall Review: The four included chassis fans are all 4-pin type. 120mm size front & rear, 80mm size in the side door (the only one w/green color) & in the video-card brace. If you want your Mobo to control some/all of your fans, you will need to change-out a couple of these (Rexus NMB-MAT (Panaflo) 120mm Case Fan with 114.7 CFM airflow is working sweetly). Any replacement 120mm fan you want for the front must be a skinny unit. The Rexus NMB-MAT Panaflo would not fit there. Also, After watching Vid Card temps, try turning your card-brace fan & side-cover (green) fan to either "Both" flow into or away from the case. It made a small difference for me. Finally - Anyone who has complained about fan noise with this or any case is perhaps losing sight of one critical item, is your case being cooled? Put your gaming headphones on and worry about the rest of the house hearing your case fans. I can't hear my case for beans while playing Crysis.

It's a Sony......any more questions?

Pros: Bought this for portable entertainment for my kids (9 & 4) in the car. Our 4 year old has been very rough on this unit to say the least but we have had zero issues after repeated drops & bumps. I would highly recommend this unit and gladly buy another if needed.

Cons: Can't say a negative thing.

Overall Review: Added Sony bonus is a car charger that plugs into any cigarette lighter/power port so no worries of the battery running dead on long trips. Accepts two sets of headsets so mom & dad can listen to their own music in the car.
