I love the look. The only thing I wished for is a 120mm spot for closed loop coolers. |

Although the rear exhaust is 140mm, it can also take 120mm fans  so it will be fine! |

I didn't see where it said that so sorry.  That's really good to know. My favorite about the case is the # of HDD cages, the included fan control, and that bad ass look on the front. So simple and elegent. |

The case itself for my needs, would be useless! Too small, no support for longer GPU's, but in terms of a small HTPC setup using a discrete GPU, or onboard it would be great but as mentioned in the review, its expensive for what it is and for that price, you could get a full Alu HTPC case Awesome review as always! |

I do really like Fractal Designs chassis, they are built with great quality and innovation. This case looks discreet and stylish and would look neat even in a living room. Perhaps paired with an AMD A10 you can get a powerful yet compact build suited perfectly to HD streaming and occasional gaming. Perhaps even capable of 4k? Great review as always mate, and nice photography BFM |

Nice review but i feel somewhat disappointed by this... you can't fit an average size graphics card with an average size power supply  |

I like it, looks are very sleek like other FD cases, pretty innovative with the amount of stuff you can fit in vs similar cases and fantastic cooling. I'd prefer one of these over the Prodigy. Having owned a SG05 in the past I prefer this case layout, can fit more in it (especially ATX sized stuff) with the size of the case and the cooling seems very good despite the sleek front panel which looks amazing. |
