I wasnt intending to get this case but it was available and the price was 79 euro which doesnt need much thinking about. The led fan at the front is way more subtle than the photo indicates.
It is made from steel not aluminium and consequently has a heavy weight which some may prefer, others not. It has plastic trim along the sides with a thin shiny metal trim which looks quite good
the rear of the case. it has a 120mm fan and the psu is at the bottom
I am still not too sure about the psu on the bottom. i have it upside down for now while i make some investigation about the temps later. the case has holes to allow the psu to be either fan up or down
removal of the other side panel is necessary to access the hdd cables
the power button is not a touch one but takes a bit of pressing in. not great but ok. it has blue power light and red for hdd
at the top of the case is the connectors which are 2 usb, firewire, esata and mic/headphone
the optical drives have a rail system which can be used or otherwise screws can be used which i prefer. there is position for spare screws to be secured there also
the hdd system is rails only which was a major disappointment but considering that the hdd trays unit is not removable obviously they cant put a screw option
