HTPC Case Review
I bought this case to create a slave media centre in our bedroom. We have an Antec Fusion in the lounge and this case complements its style very well. It is obviously a lot cheaper than the Fusion but the build quality overall is just as good. My only criticism would be the use of a plastic bezel forming the front panel. On the Fusion this is brushed aluminium and looks wonderful.

It's still a great piece of kit; passively cooling the CPU with a Thermalright SI-128 (which fits this case and the Fusion fine) and removing one of the two case fans makes it nice and quiet whilst running - there's plenty of ventilation in the case and the CPU (AMD64 X2 3600) runs at an acceptable 38°C in operation as a media centre device running Gentoo Linux 64Bit.

Great for a HTPC
Bought one of these for a HTPC build.

Two 120mm fans keep the insides cool while keeping the noise down. You can just about fit a fanless Scythe Mini Ninja in there if you want and disable the other case fan.

PSU apparently helps cut my electricity bill so that's a bonus.

Overall the case if nicely manufactured and does exactly what I want for such a low price, it's just a little bigger than I expected, so make sure you have enough room beforehand.
