HEC 6T Series 6T10BB Black Computer Case

Comment:
Light weight. Easy to move around to LANs (Secure everything carefully.)Great seeking case for the cost.eSATA built in the front. Not a lot of instances have this port at this price. Side Air Duct. Helps cooling if you use some little following market place cooler and the stock cooler. Sometimes challenging to move cables around. With no cable management, you may possibly finish up blocking the heatsink.Awkward placement of the Difficult Drive. When you install the computer be positive to install the PSU and tough drive first. If you install the motherboard and then the difficult drive, you will have to install it in one particular of the 3.five" external bays. How would have to install the difficult drive is laying the case down on the side, slide and screw it in.When installing the motherboard, I find it beneficial to uninstall the case fan to put the motherboard in. If you have the funds, I suggest altering the stock fan to a larger 92mm fan. There are a bit tricky to discover in brick and mortar stores but you will notice up to 5C lower temperatures.

At the price, i think it's a great case. It's modest, quite quiet, and looks good.Has USB/eSata/audio ports in front.Leds are not also vibrant like several other instances I've had ahead of. The piano gloss front is a double edged sword - it looks wonderful, but attracts fingerprints like crazy.I purchased it for my household server, so I don't actually care.

Like the looks of the case. The case is tiny which is what I wanted but everything fits. It is also well constructed. I installed WD 1 TB Green drive in it so no require for a 2nd drive. I have a Rosewill card reader in the three.five" external slot and an IDE DVD burner (which I'll be replacing with a SATA soon). I am working with an old Gateway micro ATX board with a P4 3GHz processor for now - once again soon to be replaced. Gigabyte GV-R4350OC 512 video card and Soundblaster Reside sound card. A Thermaltake 430w power provide completes the installed elements. As soon as I get my new motherboard installed then I'll use cable ties to get the wires and cables good and neat. 80mm fan in the rear spot exactly where there is holes for a 90mm (I will be replacing this). I wish the hole was huge sufficient for a 120mm fan. Blue power LED is quite bright but the color matches the blue power LED on my card reader so it looks fine. Yes, a fan can be place in the front. I have a 90mm installed making use of standoffs ( like has been mentioned by other people just before ). I have about 1ǚ" of clearance in between the fan and difficult drive which is fine. The air blows by the tough drive and directly onto my video card, helping to keep it temp down.Others have mentioned the side air duct breaking up air flow in the case but I don't see this with mine. The front fan is directing its air flow beneath the duct and across the video card which desires it. I have adjusted the air duct so that it comes within a 1ǚ" of my CPU fan so that the CPU is acquiring fresh air from outside. For a four year old P4 with the original heatsink and fan the temp are staying well inside range ( 52C for the CPU and 32C for the difficult drive and the space temp is about 78F correct now ).

Every thing fits perfectly. None. Replaced 80 mm fan with 92 mm fan; replaced blue "power" LED with green a single; the blue LED connected to ƳV bus by way of a resistor, moved down and pointed to a smaller plastic tab at the bottom of the face plate. Looks cool.

Good style and reliable PSU. i like the tiny cpu fane ductno complaints from client! ummm dont really remember anything being wrong with it. no complaints from consumer :P dont genuinely understand and earlier critique on right here saying it was DOA sounds like spamspecs: Sempron unlocked to Athlon two.9GHz2gb DDR3 1333 kingston value ramsome ASUS mobo w/ geforce 7025Samsung 320gb HDD

I have built about 20 computers employing these cases. They are smaller, even for micro atx, but they are so straightforward to work with. They genuinely are a excellent case and specially for the value. Most of my builds are dual-core budget builds, but there is a lot of space to jam substantial video cards in it. Lately I have taken to generating high finish machines in these cases. Proper now i have jammed a Corsair 850tx, an Asus Maximus III gene, a BD drive, 2x 2Tb challenging drives, an i7 860 with a significant heat sink OCed to 3.6Ghz, and a GTX480 in one particular of these situations. It was tight but it is operating quiet and incredibly cool. The GTX480 idles at 44c and maxes at 84c. The 80mm fan shoud be a 92mm fan Adore these circumstances

low-cost energy switch broke on initial push. Got a metal NC swith at nearby elec shop. Sharp edges If low-cost is what you want, this case is it. Invest a couple of minutes to debur the edges, ugrade primary energy switch and the case fan and it's not such a poor deal

excellent layoutgood finishdecent excellent for the dollar. none get in bulk for ur low cost builds

The case looks outstanding... fantastic style.Fits a regular ATX power provide.ESATA and 2x USB 2. with uncomplicated access.You get a lot of good quality case for the money. The case really should be a small bit longer. My hard drive covers two of the 4 DIMM slots on my motherboard. This is a difficulty for memory that does not have a low profile. If your memory does not have a huge heatsink, I feel it must have room to fit under the protruding challenging drive... mine did not. :(The power button feels a little flimsy around the edges. Make positive to press it correct in the center.3.5" hard drive bracket demands screws on each sides, which is close to impossible on the closed side of the case. I applied the hand tightening screws that came on the back of the case to accomplish this feat.The air tunnel on the side of the case was not actually lined up nicely with the CPU fan. I might just take this off. As in all issues, you get what you pay for.You will require to remove the tiny black foam protector off the top inside of the case to get your standard ATX power supply in effectively. If you attempt to put a normal ATX power supply in with no initial removing that black foam, the power provide will be misaligned and you might have trouble acquiring the power supply back out.My Desktop Create:HEC 6T Series 6T10BB CaseCORSAIR CMPSU-400CX 400W Power Provide (Too a lot of wires/connections for this micro ATX case...

Sturdy, appealing, properly built case. It was a steal at ฟ off and free shipping. A real no-brainer. Lacks some nicities like a swing out door and the 90 degree fast remove HD mount discovered in other HEC cases. The cable from Power LED ends in a 3-pin connector so be confident your MB can accomodate that. The case does not incorporate a separate reset button - although I don't contemplate that to be actually required. Like with other microATX instances, space is at a premium and placement of components and cables calls for some thought and a certain order of assembly. For example, location the HD in 1 three.5" bay and you won't be in a position to easily replace it since it will hit the CPU fan, place it in an additional and it will just clear it.I suggest mating this case with a power provide that contains advanced cable management to reduce the number of bulky cables.

Its an uncomplicated case to take apart for constructing. The entire front simply comes off after unlatching 3 clasps for effortless installation of drives and to preserve it scratch totally free even though building. The included fan is low noise and the case has incredibly excellent airflow overall. The case has a front eSATA port. The black glossy case looks pretty. All wires included were extended enough to reach the motherboard. The side air duct is about an inch off center from the AMD AM3 socket on a Asus motherboard I'm working with, nevertheless the cooling method still functions well.Glossy case simply shows fingerprints.

Comment:
Small compact size, sturdy metal construction, telescopic cpu air vent tube. front panel is glossy, fingerprints shown easily, looks good tho if u keep it polished. This is the great case if you are developing a person a basic world-wide-web, email, word doc Computer. Low finish gaming rigs would be ok too.

Comment:
Great case, been a fan of compu-case for 10+ years. Great excellent for a low end case. This model is excellent. No jagged edges or shoddy welds. Comes with dampening sponges about the energy provide. eSata port in front. Appears to be missing some screws in the parts pack. What do you expect for the price. It's got the high gloss front bezel action. Some men and women do not like simply because of the smudge aspect. Doesn't bother me.

Comment:
Looks great and pretty functional. Wish it supported far more than 1 harddrive with no utilizing the 3.5 floppy places

Comment:
Simple design with no "Airplane Landing Lights" on the case. Flimsy metal For the price, it's a great case. I am making use of this to make a super low-cost HTPC from spare parts in my workplace. I have every thing to make another computer except a case...I have troubles.

Comment:
For this price, I was expecting a case that would be falling apart and breaking every time I looked in its direction. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find that this case is made quite well for the >40$ price bracket. Its not something youll want to put hot parts into, but its definitely better than I was expecting it to be.

Comment:
For it's cost range I thought this was a quite sharp seeking case. It seems sturdy, with a good fit and finish. All the drives, mobo, etc went in without having an issue. None actually. The side duct didn't very match up with the cpu fan, but was only off by a little bit, so not genuinely a con... Its a MicroATX case, but it does NOT use a MicroATX energy supply. It uses a regular ATX power supply

Comment:
Really nice case, looks good, and for the cost it is great. It was easy to assemble the parts into the case. I've not but replaced the case fan, even although the extra fan i purchased coudl be much more quiet. I had to remove the air duct on the side to make my cpu fan fit. Now the 4 screw holes are visible from the outside. With out duct the cpu runs at round 35C (intel I3 540) idle. Often a gamble when you order the low expense items. Got this for under 30$ since shipping was free of charge. Very pleased so far.

Comment:
Used this case in 2 builds for my family. Simple to use. Although no cable management. Great for budget starter PCs

Comment:
This case rocks - get one even though free shipping! none

Affordable @ำAbove Average Top quality Cannot fit full power supply and CD drive, they converge against each other. Would acquire once more.

Comment:
Excellent price. Looks decent. eSATA on front panel. Great ventilation. A bit noisy due to thin metal. If complete silence is your concern, appear somewhere else or use rubber grommets on the tough drives and apply sound proofing material. A bit on the flimsy side but it's a case that sits on the floor and nothing else. Can't say it's a con.

Comment:
I bought this for my dad's HTPC. With an Athlon X2 dual core and onboard video, it runs almost silently, and stays nice and cool without any need for extra fans. I was impressed with the quality of the construction for such an inexpensive case. Also, this mini-tower is truly "mini"; it's one of the few towers small enough to fit on the shelf underneath his TV.

Comment:
I expected little of this affordable case, but it is produced nicely, looks great, and did not cut my hands when I installed components into it. None.

Comment:
This is a excellent case that looks really nice and modern day. Had no troubles installing any of the components (remember it is a mini tower though), two disk drives, 1 DVD and didn't actually come across any sharp edges at all. The stock case fan is extremely rather and I found a lot more then enough cooling vents to keeping my quad-core AMD cpu running adequately. The case came properly packed with plastic sheet protecting the front from scratches. Additional then enough mounting screws were supplied. I would use this case once more without any reservations! I can't say these are genuinely cons, but the blue LED is bright...I'm guessing that if you looked at it directly 1 may burn a retina! But that appears to be the case with all blue LED's that so many vendors are utilizing now a days! So if you preserve you case somewhere at eye level that may well turn into annoying. Also as others are mention, no reset button, but now a days not many men and women ought to be using an OS's that demands you to hit a reset button. Bummer...I paid about 10 bucks far more then what Newegg has it priced at as of this assessment and the product has cost-free shipping...can't go wrong!
