Pros
- attractive and minimalist case design
- 10mm noise dampening foam pads, padded PSU holder, and rubber grommets reduce noise
- good thermal design - dual chamber
- steel body construction
- strong metal door hinges
- clean and simple side panels
- tool-less installation
- includes 4 fans
Cons
- 4 fans will create a lot of noise regardless
- 80mm fans run faster and make more noise than 120mm fans while pushing less air
- front imports are found under a cheap and flimsy plastic cover
- annoying blue lights
