Whereas I'd love to check out her mounting points , this case looks a little lame once you get into the details

I first saw this a month or so ago when it first came out, and thought it was a really cool idea. Never got a good look at it though before this.

First, and least important, no fans so you have extra expense. When I got my HAF I added some fans, but I didn't replace any.

Too small for an EATX mobo

Mainly, because they say it breaks down to a bench table, but it really doesn't, there are still a lot of structures in the way

Joanne is hot though :

I probably have 15 fans around that i could throw in there. I don't own a EATX mobo and i have my Dimastech benchtable so i wouldn't use it for that anyway.

Pros... It's small, but still big enough to fit my Lightning card and still big enough to keep my Thermaltake Frio on the cpu. I tired of the conventional pc case look.

I have to agree with you on those points, I was really interested in the case until I saw the fan issue, even though I stil have all my fans around as well Even have 2 big ones out of the HAF
