This case is simply great, it is well designed which helps you do your cable management easily and without problems, there's a lot of room for fans and lots of drive bays. It has simple looks, which in my book is a big plus, since I don't like to look at some Sci-Fi aberration in blue with white. There's also a lot of customization that can be done to this case, just look for modding products from bitfenix. Overall, this case is well designed, looks great and is really well built. There is nothing cheap about this case (the photos don't do it justice) and I am extremely pleased with it.

The one thing that I did not know or like was how easily the soft rubbery coating scratches, and thats something you should be aware of if your PC sees some abuse. Otherwise it works great. There are technically better cases for the price out there(like the cheap Antecs), but I knew almost all of the downsides to this case before buying it - I was sold on the looks. No flashy lights, no windows, nice and sleek and low key and the technical aspects of the case are satisfactory.It comes with 2 real USB3.0 front I/O ports(wasnt sure if it would), the dust filters are easy to get at(though are cheaply made), and it has lots of room for fans. The front intake fans WILL make noise because of the way it sucks in the air, and I personally advise putting it on a flat surface and using the bottom intake slot as well. Even though the case is not toolless its relatively easy to work with and its pretty sturdy. Also if you have it on the floor somewhere visible you can just not plug in the "power LED" from the top panel so that damn blue light doesnt distract too much. Conclusion: I am happy with the purchase and do not regret it, but I would probably not buy the same case again. I would however buy from Bitfenix in the future.

I bought this case after searching for hours for a simple case with no windows and no bells and whistles, and I am absolutely in love with it. The build quality is very high and installing everything was a breeze. For an ATX case, it was quite roomy inside and I had ample room to install two graphics cards in SLI and a Noctua NH-D14 CPU heatsink (although there is only about 5mm clearance from the heatsink to the case side).One issue to note is that if you are installing longer graphics cards, each one will make two of the 3.5" bays unusable.

I love the simple look and it seems like it will perform quite well. I was surprised by how sturdy it felt after unboxing it because it felt very light. I also thought the plastic front and top might not feel very nice, but the soft touch finish is silky smooth and doesn't look or feel cheap at all. It has lots of space to hide cables away and keep the inside organized.This case also has the added benefits of a few accessories, like the matching 5.25" drive bay cover. It makes the case look even better by hiding the optical drive.

I had originally tried to purchased the windowless version but NCIX was sold out. The decided to spend the extra $10 and go for the window version. Great case. A lot of space. Motherboard easy to install. Instructions were great. Good cable management features. Adapter for 2.5" drive included!

I should start off by saying I ditched my Corsair 600T for this case and am happy I did. It keeps my 2500k cool and with the 4 green LED fans I installed looks awesome at night.I am rather impressed I did a very clean looking cable management in this case and was even able to install a Hyper 212 heatsink with having to remove the motherboard.I would love to see future iterations have a built in USB 3.0 port or two but for this price, would never dream of complaining.The front and top panel come off easily and allowed me to install fans and clean this very easily.Great case, am excited to see more from the guys at Bitfenix!

Really like this case. Needed 4 top USB ports for a customer, and wanted a plain-ish yet nice case. I had room to hide all of my cables really well. Will definitely be buying again. Looks nice too.

Nice simple looking case that will do pretty much everything. I was surprised by how light it was, and how much room there was behind the back panel for routing cables. The rubber finish is very nice, I wish they would have continued it on the side panels though. Be careful putting in the I/O shield, I bent the metal trying to get mine in.
