Quality case with a horrible layout!!
08-10-2009
Reviewer: Ken (1)
I''m no modder but I have built over 30 computers so I"m no novice either. The layout of this case is terrible. It is a trick to install large cpu cooler such as a zalman. My motherboard a 750 sli has the sata ports facing rearward and even right angle cable are very close to the hard drive rack. I had to lift up the mb to install the cables. Then I started looking at my graphics card, an 260 gtx. No way it will go. And I don''t mean a just touching the harddrive rack, it needs atleast half inch to get to there. The hard drive rack also cause another problem that it is riveted to the back wall so it makes wire routing a real trick. The rack needs to be moved atleast an inch forward to give clearance to the graphic card which puts it right against the front case fans. I can use 3.5 to 5.25 adapters and mount my drives in upper bays and just remove the rack or I can see if I can use thinner fans, or just remove them, and move the rack far enough forward.
Sadly it is a quality case. It''s just the internal space is smaller than many mid towers I''ve seen.
