Most Favorable Review

Very good for the price!

APEVIA X-JUPITER-JR G-Type X-JPJGT-BK Black SECC Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
APEVIA X-JUPITER-JR G-Type X-JPJGT-BK Black SECC Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: Big for a "mid-tower", plenty of room inside for all of your goodies. Plenty of room left around to hide cables and such. The fan controller is AWESOME! The blue LED's are a nice touch and the 120mm fan moves a good amount of air and is relatively quiet. The temp sensor isn't very accurate so I have it disconnected, but it is useful if you don't use temp monitoring software. Tons of CD/BLURAY/DVD drive slot/card reader slots...good place to shove wires ;). HDD/DVD drive installation is completely tool-less and very simple!! Only the flimsy side feels "cheap". Overall a very sturdy case.

Cons: There is a place for the front fan to go, but you have to remove the HDD tray to get to it...speaking of the HDD tray, there are only 3 slots! Only two 2.5" slots. I only have two HDD's but I thought I would mention it. Not sure why there are so many 5.25" slots.. The clips that hold the PCI cards in are fragile but there are screw holes if you break them (3 of mine are broken). The screw holes for the mobo aren't exact (for my micro-atx board anyway) so 1 or 2 may have to be left out. BEWARE THE SHARP EDGES/CORNERS INSIDE!!! They aren't rampant inside the case, but it HURTS when you hit them.

Overall Review: I have the version with the 240mm fan on the side instead of the window. It lights up blue and looks awesome. I'm sure the 120mm side fan works fine, but the 240mm keeps the case well cooled. My mobo backplate also didn't fit this case, but it's ok because I have wires routed through that space.

Not half bad!!

Pros: Long battery life, rubber all around for a good grip, on/off switch on bottom to save battery life, 1000dpi, doesn't feel "cheap" its got some weight to it.

Cons: A little bit on the small side. Not to bad though unless you have HUGE hands.

Overall Review: Like all new mice, it takes a little while to get used to. At first I didn't like it because of the size. But the more I use it, the more I like the way it fits in my hand. This is the perfect mouse for a laptop. (I'm using it on my desktop though).

One of the best

Scythe SY1225SL12M "Slipstream" Case Fan
Scythe SY1225SL12M "Slipstream" Case Fan

Pros: comes with a 3 to 4-pin connector, moves a good amount of air, best sound to air movement ratio i've seen. Hardly noticeable even at 100%

Cons: No LED's or fan controllers.

Overall Review: Buy 2 and put one as intake and one as exhaust...you won't be disappointed. :)

More than I expected

APEVIA X-JUPITER-JR S-Type X-JPJST-MG Metallic Grey SECC Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
APEVIA X-JUPITER-JR S-Type X-JPJST-MG Metallic Grey SECC Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: screwless drive holders, really good airflow fans, plenty of space for cable management.

Cons: oddly enough you can't fit a 120mm fan in the front when there is a place to put it.

Overall Review: I didn't bother rigging up the temp sensors and I might unplug the "apevia" LED logo on the front because i don't like lights all that much. still a great case though =)
