Question 1

is it durable?

Accepted Answer

The front of the case feels like cheap plastic, but it's thick so I think that makes up for it. The rest of the case is metal, and definitely durable. Mine arrived in a small van, and I just happened to be outside at the time, the driver handled my box like it was something he was taking to the dump. Yet, my case was perfectly intact. My only 2 complaints is that there's no fan included for the top of the case even though it has a spot for one, but Newegg lists how many fans are included so if you do the math you'll realize at least 1 fan isn't coming. My other complaint is the space inside the case. Obviously a mid tower isn't exactly huge, so it's somewhat expected, but I did have a bit of trouble getting my ASRock Z97X motherboard in the case. Overall though I'd recommend this case to anyone, and am actually looking at buying another for a 2nd build I'm doing.

Question 2

How much memory does the computer have? And how fast is the computer?

Accepted Answer

This is only a computer case.  No hardware is included with this case.  I  chose this case for a budget build for my son, and it looks great!

Build:
ASUS M5A97 Mobo
AMD FX-6300 Vishera 6-Core 3.5GHz (4.1GHz Turbo)
ARCTIC Alpine 64 Plus CPU Cooler - AMD
SAPPHIRE DUAL-X Radeon HD 6970 2GB 256-Bit GDDR5
G.SKILL Sniper 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM
Seagate Barracuda ST1000DM003 1TB 7200 RPM
Windows 7 Home Prem

Question 3

whats the graphics card?

Accepted Answer

Not sure what you mean, as this is a case only.  The maximum length of a graphics card that the case will accommodate is 420mm or 16.5 inches. Most graphics cards should be less than that, but be sure to check the length.

Question 4

CAN U PLAY FORTNITE ON IT?

Accepted Answer

Hello,

Thank you for contacting us in regards to your question.

Yes, you can play Fortnite with this, with the correct parts installed in this case. Something like ryzen or intel build with RX 580 or GTX 1660 GPUs, should be able to handle Fortnite no problem.

And since this case is a mid tower, it would be compatible with ATX (regular size) and Micro ATX motherboards, and any gaming graphics cards will fit this case no problem.

Thank you, 
Newegg Support

Question 5

Does it have a restart button?

Accepted Answer

Restarting is typically done through your os. But if you tap the power button it might prompt your system to restart.

Question 6

I'm new to the whole building computers thing. Where would I plug a keyboard/mouse into this thing? Is there a spot in the back? Speakers, too. Would it be usb or "PS/2" or whatever?

Accepted Answer

Hi! If you're looking for the place to plug in your keyboard/mouse and speakers, you should definitely look into getting a motherboard. The PS/2 port for mouse and keyboard is found on standard motherboards. A 3.5mm speaker plug is also found on the motherboard, but this case also has some front connectors for a 3.5mm headphone plug. Any ports and connections that you see on the case would be routed and connected to your motherboard on the inside (like the USB ports and power switch).

If you need anymore help, I would definitely recommend consulting the Newegg TV's three-part series: How to Build A Computer, since that helped me a lot when I was building my first computer.

Question 7

Is this case good for first time builders? Since the case uses LED lights I assume its more complex to set up the power supply than other standard cases.

Accepted Answer

The case is very easy to setup. The LEDs are built into the fans so there's no extra work. Fans all use standard plugs. The only other point of note is that the expansion slot area has an external plate on the back of the case. This is just an optional measure for securing your cards. I personally removed it and used standard screws. Other than that it should be smooth sailing.

Hope this helps. Good luck!

Question 8

Does this case have a button to deactivate the LEDs?

Accepted Answer

This case does not have that button/feature. The power button is green and the two green led fans are the only source of case lighting but you can remove them and add your own.

Question 9

Hey :D I see you bought this computer I'd like to know if it came with a monitor? Thank you! ;)

Accepted Answer

This isn't a computer. This is just a computer case. It doesn't come with anything other than the case.

Question 10

I bought this case a couple weeks ago, but when I turn it on there is a flashing red light that appears on the power button. Its not a button that is signalling that its on, because those lights are on. This red light is an additional light that comes on and off periodically. What is the red light? Can anyone help me?

Accepted Answer

That red light is activity of the hard drive.  It only flashes when your hard drive is being tasked.
