Review Title: Sexiest case around
Comment by davelister at 10:29am 31st August 2008
Verdict: Great case let down slightly by the drive bay filters and shiny top surface.
The first thing i'd like to point out is that the drive bays do have dust filters behind the mesh ! i spent weeks reading reviews for this case trying to find that out.
It's a pc case, so there ain't to much to say !The case is huge, none of the photo's i'd seen, let on just how big it is. It is well packaged and even comes with a dirty laundry bag (coolermaster know their customer base).
The lack of a removable motherboard tray is down to personal preference i'd say, it hasn't caused me any problems. I was happy when i turned it on that the front fan was not a typical blue led fan but a nice red one. And also the power & hdd lights ect were also red.
My system seems to run a bit cooler & alot quieter in this case, but thats not suprising as my old case was a cheap maplin case.
The shiny black panel on the top may be a problem later in time, it looks like it is easily scratched and it certainly attracts fingerprints.
My only other gripe is the drive bay covers seem a little wobbly and even though the covers have individual dust filters this wont stop dust entering between them. When i got the case i was hoping that the filters would cover 3 bays at a time like the antec 1200 has. All in all i'd say i'm delighted with my purchase and should have it for a very long time.
