Final Thoughts and Conclusions

I know I mentioned that this is a budget/econo case many times, and well, it is. If you’re trying to build a custom system for yourself, I would recommend looking elsewhere. This case really isn’t that “Super”.

Firstly, you will require an upgraded power supply if you have the latest components as 300W just doesn’t cut it anymore for a midrange system, and quality is a little suspect. It also lacks the extra power connectors (and length) to accomodate some newer motherboards (like 4 and 8 pin power connectors). Secondly, if you do have the latest components, then the single 80mm case fan may be inadequate for the amount of heat you’ll produce. Thirdly, if you’re a hardcore computer techie like me with a desire for the latest and greatest, I would recommend that you look for something a little more upscale. However, if Grandma needs a new case for some reason, this might be a nice little upgrade if you don’t upgrade anything else.

Pros:

• Cheap case if you’re on a budget
• OEM styling that’s better than your grandma’s beige computer case
• Rounded edges

Cons:

• Cheap case if you require the latest and greatest
• Front panel location of USB/Audio jacks, Power/Reset buttons, and Power/HDD LEDs
• 300W Power supply only
• Short power connectors
• No tool-less assembly

Overall Rating: 6.0 / 10.0
