I had recently, recently being 2 years ago, ascended to the heavens of the ones they call the Master Race, and my original build was a tough soldier. Lord Gaben would've been proud.....Anyways, after coming into a surprisingly large amount of money ($1000 - which may not be large to some, but we're focusing on me here. You can write your own review.) I decided to upgrade my rig. Being that I used most of that money on a 780 ti and new power supply, I was somewhat financially restricted (Oh haha, "Seems to be a re-occurring thing with this dude". Shut up) from purchasing a decent full-tower. I also wanted a case with a nice side panel window to show off my newly purchased hardware. Luckily this case was on sale for less than $100. I couldn't pass this deal up.
After receiving it the mail, I have to tell you, I am more than satisfied with this purchase. There's so much room for activities in there. My Hyper 212 Evo trying to fit in my old case was like O.J. Simpson trying to put on that glove. Well that is no longer a problem of mine. Not only is there space, but there is also sound dampening material that pretty much surrounds the case, making it relatively quiet. The design is very sleek and clean. There are also dust trays for the two front fans and the PSU, which makes cleaning that much easier. All-in-all this is a steal for anyone looking to get a nice well-rounded case for a reasonable price.
Just FYI: The picture shows the regular version of the case having white fans, expansion slots, and drive mounting brackets. I assure you this is the blackout version, and it's glorious.

I love this case, it was easy to work with and the final build looks awesome. The build quality was great, i didn't have any problems with my case except for one tiny mark where the paint was taken away by something. it was on the top corner of the door, literally on the edge so i took a sharpie marker and u can't even tell it was there.More than likely was caused during shipping.
Pros - Good amount of space in the back for wiring (was able to use a modular power supply along with extensions and still fit it all.) - Sound dampening material high quality and even on the door on the back of the case. - All black instead of the white fans,trays and slot covers - Front panel wires each the back easily, especially the usb 3.0 cable. - Mine came with the feet attatched so easy to get airflow from the bottom. - great cooling even with the door. My GTX 680 averages 40-50 in games. - sound dampening fan covers at the top. I myself kept one in above the cpu and put a fan to exhaust closest to the front. - comes with tons of screws for the build and addons - can fit a 240mm radiator at the front behind the door. Cons - Material in the box for shipping isn't very good for a pricey case, wish it had more - Grommets are a little loose, not very tight against the metal so when wiring just be cautious of this, you don't want the grommet being pulled on after everything is in, becomes really hard to fix.
Overall I'm extremely happy with this case, was pretty easy to work with, nothing gave me trouble.

great case for a great price. easy to work inside wide case, strong cold rolled steal, fit and finish is also top notch. not flashy and full of neon lights just a simple all black look.
