Stunning looks, better quality than casecom
os:
LinuxBought one of these just on impulse, looks grand from the photoes, even better in real life! MATX boards only and don't overload them with high end graphics cards, there's only a 200watt PSU and that can deal with onboard graphics, hard drive and optical...no headroom for more. Nice bit of kit if you want something a little less like a PC and a little more like a lifestyle product! Quality well above the casecom baseline, some thought went into this.
No worries with this one
os:
Not ApplicableEven my wife said Wow! when this came out of the box. Its nicely made and really cute, and an easy build. Cons - cooling not great and PSU slightly noisy, but not bad. Don't be tempted to plonk some high-power gear into it and it will be fine! Even though it's described as tower or desktop, there are no feet provided for desktop use - buy yourself some stick-on feet.
TOP CASE
os:
Windows Vistathe case is exxtremelyyyyy lightt! the inside is painted as well and it really feels professional its got a piano feel to it altho its metal its midi at case, i managed to cram 9600gt in sli in this case stil :P could fit a 8800gtx if u really wanted to, bare in mind the cardwil be up against the side. With such a big gfx card u wouldnt be able to have a cd drive, thats not a problem for me as their is a cd drive on my network. i got a 400watt psu more than capable of runing 9600gt in sli :P
PSU
The Power supply type is micro ATX or mATX. I have ordered a 300 watt mATX psu for my case as i am adding a PCI-E graphics card.
Superb little case

Windows XPFirstly I have to say what a fantastic delivery time! 1 working day on the supersaver!
Now for the review. I brought this case as I am building a small PC for my mother. It has a very nice glossy back finish to it and the red looks great along with it.
The case is pretty light and therefore the panels are thin but not too weak that it will flex all over the place.
You are supplied with a bundle of screws, fittings, feet and a BIOS speaker.
Inside the case is a 60mm fan at the back which uses a 4 pin molex connection to power it. There is space for another 60mm fan at the back and also a 60mm at the front. The PSU is very small in size and comes with enough power connections for all the internal devices. It only comes with 1 SATA power cable, so if you plan to use more than one SATA hard drive be sure to buy a molex to SATA power adaptor.
You can fit 3 hard drives in total. 2 at the top and one actually underneath the CD-ROM cage.
The CD/DVD ROM drive is mounted on its side and with the layout of my motherboard this means it sits above my CPU heatsink. This means you have to use a heatsink and fan that isn't over 65mm (2 and a half inches) tall. This shouldn't pose a problem for most people - but don't expect to fit in a massive heatsink!
The side panel comes with a plastic duct attached to it. This duct is 80x80x35mm. You can remove this duct and fit any 80mm fan to the side panel in its place - allowing further cooling.
All in all I'm very happy with it and would recommend to anyone.
Looks amazing

Not ApplicableOrdered one of these cases over the weekend as wanted something a little less boring that the old casecom I had.
If it turns out to be as nice as it looks here I wil be well impressed. I will post another another review once it has arrived (Tuesday) and I have it set up and running!
clearance a little tight
Looks better in real life, with a very retro feel, like an old 1950s portable gramaphone cabinet. Watch out for the clearance between motherboard attachments and your disc drive, most DVD drives these days are nice and compact but older ones are about 2 inches longer and depending on your mobo will cause clearance problems - best opt for one of the smaller types of micro-ATX boards, the standard square ones are a tad on the large side, you need a rectangular one that doesn't stick out so far.
BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!1

Not ApplicableThis is a superb quality case and gives great value for money. Very well painted and no nasty sharp edges..
psu is audible but not too noisy for comfort.
