A surprisingly good, roomy case for a bargain price
This case is surprisingly good for its price. The included RGB fans are not speed controlled but they do come pre connected to a basic fan hub mounted behind the ssd mount point. The cable routing is fairly good and there is plenty of space to hide cables behind the tray and in the basement.The window is smoked plastic, but it gives a passable appearance of glass unless you inspect it closely.There are pretty flexible mounting options for hardware, filtered intake for PSU on the underside, mounting points for fans or a water pump on top of the basement and it looks like a 240mm radiator could be mounted in the front but as the front isnt vented performance might be less than ideal.All in all the case is good, particularly for the price. It is surprisingly roomy inside, i managed to fit a full 7 slot ATX motherboard with a large 120mm tower cooler easily, and even though my PSU is not modular there is plenty of space to stow cables out of sight.

Bargain price, looks good, easy to work on!
Ok, yes it is relatively cheap, it's light and not the strongest metal panels BUT in the flesh it looks like it should cost a lot more. With a uATX board and a decent mid-range video card in it there's plenty of room to work on it. Cable management is pretty good, the fans and illuminated front panel are pretty good to be honest - I am pleasantly surprised by it.I will be using this case again for future customer builds.

Great for the price, but you get what you pay for
This case is great at being a budget option for those who are looking for a slim, sleek and compact case to build a small form factor build in, which is why I was drawn to building in the case. I hadn't heard of the brand before this, however the quality of the case is quite good for around £30.The case has a good exterior, however one issue is that there is no Front panel audio, which means you are limited to the rear motherboard audio jacks. Not a big issue for me - just watch out. Inside, it is almost a carbon copy of the Dell Optiplex cases, which is a good thing as they are very well built, however the drive mounting bays in this case are a little difficult to do and take some time and patience to secure a drive in.As mentioned by another reviewer, you will need to have a TFX power supply as the standard PSUs are too large, so make sure you check the clearance before you buy.My case was missing a few parts but Amazon came to the rescue and gave a partial refund, however the power and disk activity LEDs were loose when I got it, so it took a while to re-position them to their respective holes in the front panel. Also note the 80mm fan supplied isn't the best (loud whine when trying to cool the internals) so I recommend getting a replacement one for long term use.Overall it's a great case for £30, just don't expect a rock solid build quality as it's cheap at the end of the day.

Very good value and quality for your money.
Value for money is great.Nicer case than I expected as it's cheap but does not seem cheap when it arrived good build quality and great io.

Its not great to be honest
Its a cheap case, bought it for my nephew to build his first Gaming PC in and wish I has spent a more money to be honest.Both fans are powered but a MOLEX plug and are on 100% all the time, they are also both exhaust fans, despite the dust filter on the top they aren't reversible, so don't be putting anything with any steam in it.Its fiddly to get the cables in neat and doesn't feel like a case that will be easy to upgrade PC bits on, its a one use affair but for the price thats not really an issue. Once together it does look pretty good, giving some PCMR looks for very a cheap price but I would not recommend it for a beginner, its not an easy case to build a PC in.It looks the part, but feels very very cheap, even for the price.

Not so used lol :) great purchase :)
Stated it was used and only in acceptable condition but mine came basically new few tiny marks on the plastic that's all lol I guess this one was from someone who couldnt build a pc or didn't like so they sent back and I don't know why as this is an amazing case yes it's not the most durable but if your looking for a cheap RGB case this will do just fine :) thanks again Amazon awesome as usual :)

Lovely case for the price
Honestly it's very cheap but it met all my requirements. The sound proofing helps and the layout is in keeping with modern gaming systems. The PSU sits at the bottom and has the vent for the fan in the bottom of the case instead of blowing around the CPU area like other cheap cases. The drive bays are great, the front panel connectors are fine.My only issue is the front panel only has ONE usb3 and ONE usb2 port. That means the connectors take up the front USB motherboard sections which should support 4 ports, and you only get 2. If they had done 2 USB3 ports or even 2 USB2 ports it would have been better. As it is you only get one of each.Other than that, not a single complaint with the case.

Terrible airflow but very quiet case
Bought the case to fit my gaming rig into nothing too overkill (i5 + rtx2070) so I wanted a case that could keep sound levels as quiet as possible due to having my pc in my master bedroom and only being able to use it when the missus is asleep.The case is super quiet and very compact but was a little fiddly to build in so would recommend getting a psu with flat cables or modular as there isn't much room to store excess cables etc.The air flow is none existing even with the front 3 slots filled with high air flow fans and the rear having a high air flow one as well my GPU temps skyrocketed compared to my old case (went from 63 degrees to 84 degrees) while my CPU climbed about 20 degrees so I have had to made a few modifocation to the case by cutting out 2 100mm holes in the front panel and fitting grill covers to allow the computer to actually breath and since doing that my temps are back to how they used to be so I would strongly advise to be careful and think before buying this case as it's clearly not suitable for anything other than a low powered office pc.
