Pros: - Almost every external surface has a sound dampening pad glued to the inside edge. This helps dampen rattling and noise transmission from inside the case to the outside. - There is plenty of space inside for cooling. - 6 total fan mounting locations. 1] (1) Next to PSU, 2] (2) top of case, 3] (2) front of case (both 140mm only), (1) rear of case - Top, Front, and Bottom are all structurally reinforced by durable plastic (in addition to the metal chassis). - Mesh screens for front and side fan intakes
Cons: - The plastic clips holding the plastic reinforced materials are very hard to "bend" to pull the plastic off the case. You are required to do this to install fans/radiators. I was very scared that I was going to break the plastic clip when I was trying to bend the clip. I had to find a tool (screwdriver) to get the force required to bend the clip.
Overall Review: The case is actually well designed and engineered. It's manufactured in China which allows it to have some slight QA issues (like the underside of the top plastic was covered in molding residue (fine, dark black powder) but the build quality is decent. The inclusions of the bequiet! fans make this case much more valuable than its price tag. You're getting 2 fans that push 19dbA at full speed included with this case. I've been very happy so far with this purchase.
