What do you think this Pc Case ?

Thats the one I have. I got it for $49 at Compusa after rebate a few
months ago good deal.

Unfortunately I have big beefs about the case though you can see it
got good reviews from the buyers at Newegg.

1) The sheet metal is super thin. I bought two of them one for a
neighbor, One of them was all dented up when I opened the case. I
mean really dented up. My case was OK but was soon dented on the top
when I dropped a few items on it when I was working on the PC. Stuff
that wouldnt wouldnt put a scratch in a normal case.

2) The paint is bronze hard to match metallic paint. Its already
chipped at the edges and I went to an auto parts place to get touch
paint but none really matches. Basically its starting to look a bit
beat up after two months or so. My other cases look new after years of
use.

3) Its built to be really light. Frankly I wouldnt sit on it let
alone stand on it. My other cases feel way way heavier and sturdier.

If that stuff doesnt bug you - its a bit smaller height wise - than
many mid tower designs Ive had so it maybe cramped vertically.
Its fatter though so you get more circulation that way for air. If I
had my choice Id have gotten the Cheifec type case but thats $100+
here even when rebated it was $79 recently.

They stopped carrying it at the local Compusa .

Of course everyone has their own subjective point of view. You might
like it. Who knows. If you are the really careful type and dont mess
with your case . PC much and put it carefully away in a shelf on your
desk or something , it might stay pristine for years to come . And you
might like the color and layout. People who bought it at Newegg seem
to really like it .
