Conclusion
Overall this is a nice case, everything is removeable, which makes installation very easy. This case will take fullsized motherboards, and still have room to manover. The headhight in the case is enough to accomodate the largest of coolers, and the drives bays available are more than adequate to satisfy most configurations.

The only fault with this case is the cooling solution. The 60mm fan at the back I feel would not really do anything significant to reduce the heat in the case. You would need to populate both the fan outlets for it to start making an effect on the cooling. However if the case was in a suitable rackmount environment cooling would not be too much of a problem as these rooms are kept at a constant temperature, as well as the cabinets the cases are mounted in.

Overall a nice case that would suit almost any solution, enough room to swing a cat in and enough drive bays for suit many configurations.


Cons

  • Nice sized case
  • Nice amount of Drive bays
  • PSU included
  • Removeable motherboard tray

Pros

  • Cooling fans not really big enough
