This case is a good weight – not too heavy but very durable. I would definitely considering buying this case again (as this build was a gift).
The only trouble was the front audio cables were too short to connected to the motherboard (MSI P965 Neo-F Intel Socket 775 ATX Motherboard), but really a non-issue.

Purchased this case with an intel mother board/barebones kit. There isn't any air flow in the front, which is what I beleive may be causing my heat problems. |

I bought this case to replace one that didn't have USB ports on the front. I was unsure of the quality to expect because of the low price $16.99, but I switched out my old case with this one and I had zero problems. There were no instructions included, but if you can't figure out how everything goes and what screws go where then you have no business inside a computer. I would recommend this case to anyone building a home computer. It arrived via UPS on the 3rd day, it was raining cats and dogs, and UPS put the items in trashbags to protect them when they brought them to my door. I'm very satisfied with my 1st order from tiger direct. |

The Quick: Good bang for your buck. Buy it, and be happy!
Pros: Price is great for the quality. Good look and design. Structure is sound and case has roomy interior. Spider (has 6 legs???) design on front looks amazing when lit. Has two, 120mm fan mounts, one of which blows right onto HD slots. Front USB, Mic, and Headphones. Looks impressive and had the new pc built and running in one night.
Cons: One of the 5.25 bay covers was bowed inward. Iffy longevity of front LEDs.
Other Thoughts: I removed the bowed cover for a cd/dvd drive, so it worked out. The iffy Longevity of front LEDs can be fixed with an LED fan. I swapped the front LEDs to the back of the case for lighting and put an LED fan up front. I did not noticed a difference in the brightness of the spider design. I removed the ''processor'' air funnel because it blocked the rear fan's airflow, and now provides a ''window'' into the case to see the lights inside. |

I bought this case as part of a barebones kit and have had it for over a month now. No documentation was included for the case, and could not find anything on web for it either. The case does indeed support two 120mm fans, 1 front, 1 rear, but, I have not been able to mount the front fan because it appears the only way to do so is to remove the front bezel. As far as I can tell, it cannot be removed. The power switch connector to the motherboard seems to bad for mine (as if I open up the case and swap out any piece of hardware, the system will not power on, I actually have to lay the case down on its side for it to power up!); I might have to strip the wires and re-do them or just get another case altogether sometime later. Outside of this, the case is decently ventilated as I get a temperature of 45c on my Intel 840 3.2 GHz. No other problems except that when delivered the bag containing the screws, standoffs, etc was ripped and everything was in the case. |

What You Should Know
|

Assembling Barebones Computer Kits & Computer Cases
Remember when assembling one of our money-saving Barebone Computer Kits, or
installing your existing computer components into a new computer case, you
may have to modify the case to fit your components - This Is Normal!
Cases are designed to hold and accommodate a wide variety of motherboards,
interface cards, connectors, and other components. Because of this,
the case manufacturer designs their cases with easily removable panels to
allow these components to properly fit in the case. All you need to do
is punch them out with a screw driver or fold them over with a pair of
pliers to snap out the metal piece for your exact components. In this
way, you save the cost of assembling your computer, and have the
satisfaction of building your own workstation.
PLEASE NOTE:
Carefully read all documentation BEFORE you start to assemble your Barebones
Kit or add components to a Computer Case. Some components need to be
assembled in a specific order. Also place the components in the case
temporarily to confirm any modifications (punch outs) that need to be made
to fit that component.

Got Enough
Memory? Bet You'll Need More!
Windows Vista and today's software
applications make much greater demands on your system's memory. Adding
peripherals, like webcams, USB hard drives, and complex Internet pages, all
take memory. Watching DVD movies, or watching videos on the web, or
playing PC based games demand increased memory. So take full
advantage of your system's potential, your operating system's enhancement
and entertainment capabilities, and your software's productivity by expanding
your system memory!The best time to
add more memory is when you buy your system! Get the memory that's
right for your computer, whether laptop, desktop, or All-In-One.

Shared
Memory? Or Where Did My Memory Go?
Your computer uses memory to run your
Operating System, applications, peripherals, and to generate and display
graphics on your computer monitor. Video memory is a form of RAM, and is
either built into your motherboard; or on a graphics card (video card).
Depending on the motherboard's configuration, and that of the video card (if
separate or built-in to the motherboard), your computer may have to draw on
its own RAM memory to meet its video memory needs. This creates shared
memory, where your computer’s RAM will be shared between its own Processor
(CPU) and its graphics chip.
The result is that some systems will have
shared memory, some will not. If you have 2GB (for example) of system
memory installed, you may notice that your system reports significantly less
memory. This is because your system is using shared memory for your
video.
What can you do about this?
You can actually configure this shared memory through your computer’s BIOS
settings. However, this is a setting best left alone, since it is
typically optimized for display performance, and making changes may impact
display resolutions, and other video capabilities.
The simplest solution is usually to either:
increase your system memory; or to upgrade the video hardware. By
upgrading to a new video card with built-in video memory, then turning off
shared memory, you will free your system to use it's maximum potential
memory, and provide your system with much more robust video features.

How Much
Memory Do You Really Have?
When you look at the specifications for a computer, it will display the
installed memory, and typically the maximum memory that can be installed.
However, while these are real values, they represent a potential useable
memory depending upon the installed operating system, and other factors. The actual useable memory may be different
(lower) from these values.
The reason is simply that a computer may have a limitation in the operating
system (such as Windows 32 bit versions), or configured to use shared memory,
which reduces the amount of RAM that is available to the CPU by using
some of it for other purposes, such as for video memory. In some
cases, you can control the maximum useable memory through system settings,
by upgrading from a 32 bit to a 64 bit version of Windows XP or Vista, or by upgrading to a video card that has internal onboard video memory.
But always
remember, that the amount of memory that your system reports, is not always
the amount of actual installed memory. For example, if you have 4GB
installed, 32 bit versions of Windows will typically report 3.2GB due to a
limitation of Windows itself. Also note that different Windows
programs report available and maximum memory differently, which can be
confusing. If you find that you need more
memory, we suggest expanding your system memory, since this is the most
effective performance increase, and the one that is easiest to perform .
