Looks good, as long as the side fans blow in and the back fan blows out.....

Though I usually prefer an aluminum case, it sure will be light being made of plastic.

Due to this, you will probably get a fair amount of noise from the fans and what not. However, if that's not a big deal to you, then it looks good to me.

One thing though, I didn't notice any USB's on the front. Not sure if that's something you would want/use.

Otherwise, looks pretty nice to me for the price.

Thermaltake is a great case manufacturer, and a great heatsink manufacturer too. Strega has used them for cases for the PC's (when we actually need a PC around here!) for a while now. Well worth the few extra bucks.

It's a freaking case. It has fans, thus creating airflow, thus providing ventilation. The materials aren't the greatest, and for $50 who cares. At least you're not a sucker who paid $200 for a metal box to hold PC Components!

omg...$300 for a case? Seriously man....how about tossing some of that disposable income my way??

My old computer has (and still runs great) lasted me for 8-9 years with no upgrades. AMD Athlon 2800+, 1 GB, Epox 8K7A mobo, ATI AIW 9600 AGP, SB Audigy 2 Platinum.

Going from that to this..
Intel Quad Core Q9300, Corsair Dominator TWIN2X4096-8500C5D (4GB memory), EVGA 750i SLI ATX mobo, EVGA GeForce 9800 GTX(G92) 512mb 256-bit GDDR3 PCIe2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI card (gonna order another later on), Corsair 620W ATX12V v2.2 and EPS12V 2.91 SLI Certified 80+ Modular Active PFC PS.

This whole upgrade crap started because I bought an internal blu-ray player. Player said I needed a better video card...wasn't going to get a better AGP card. So I needed to basically get a new computer. Good thing DVD drives and HD's are easy to reuse.
