Overall

This is an interesting case. You have a budget level case but with a few changes its actually a sharp looking case. With two 120mm fans and the potential to add two more I am confident that this case would be capable of supporting a budget gaming build. Picking a motherboard that is going to match up with that red may be an issues, ASUS ROG here you come! The only real problem is as far as I can tell you can’t even buy this anywhere. But you can pick up a standard version along with a can or two of your favorite color of paint and you’re good to go. It just goes to show that you don’t have to have the most expensive case to have a little style.

its not as dated as it is budget. Most low end cases are basic

This isn't a knock on this case but cases in general.

I want someone to take a poll on how many DVD drives they have in their computer. Do we really need 5 5 1/4 bays? I would think that people would like more HDD space. I know that you can use 5 1/4 bays for many different things and I think that it why we are seeing still a high number of them.

I can see it now, Lesar has 5 DVD drives in his next build that are all IDE. Lol, sorry bud.

The most that I can see is 4 and that is extreme. 2 DVD drives and a reservoir that takes up two spots. Then again unless your burning DVD's constantly then you really only need 1.

I have no idea were i'm going with this but 5 is too many in my book. I wish my 800D only had one and more room for HDD.

I do like the red interior though.

If they got rid of most of the bays you would upset a lot of people who use them for everything else.

I use all of my bays for example. Also a lot of bays help with airflow

my lian li has 3 - 5.25 bays. 1 of those bays had a 3.5 slot conversion. perfect for 1 optical drive and something else.
