Advantages: Good case, roomy, easy to install components, included PSU and fan of high quality.
Disadvantages: Rubber stoppers on the bottom fall off often (this is a very minor niggle though)

I bought one of these for building my first computer about a month ago. It was extremely easy to fit all the parts inside it and I had my PC up and running inside of a few hours. It is not clearly displayed in the picture, but the top half of the front of the case opens up to reveal the slots for your CD rom drive, floppy drive, etc. Both this door on the front and the side panel have locks on with a key provided. There is a 500W power supply provided ...
...before you buy) This is more than enough to cope with anything you might want to power inside the case (high end graphics cards, extra fans etc.) and is supposedly 80%+ efficient. If you want to find out more about the included power supply then search around for "Antec 500W earthwatts PSU". It's very easy to slot and screw in all the different components you would want to install, with a full range of screws etc. provided with the case. I did have ... Read review

Advantages: Quite, quality
Disadvantages: Plain design - maybe not for case modders

Effective air cooling solutions, including an extendible tube to direct CPU heat directly out of the case, 120mm case fan with 3 step speed settings (manually adjusted) which on low speed is very quiet, quite easy access to drive bays, risers etc. HDD fixes into bays with rubber grommits to reduce vibration. For a system with lots of drives/SLI (i.ie. heat output) etc. more fans can be added which does not reduce the internal size too much. Neat ... Read review

Advantages: Great design, tool-less parts work, does everything it should
Disadvantages: Front vents clog with dust

I built my computer over a year ago, and decided to push the boat out a and spend a bit extra on a case. After reading some good reviews I chose to go with the Coolermaster Centurion 5 in blue, and am glad I did! I never really imagined the choice of case could make too much difference but this really is excellent. The design is simple and unassuming, yet somehow very classy, the brushed blue aluminium and blue LED's work well. Functionally it works ...
...fiddling with screws on expansion brackets (although the screw holes are there should you wish, but it is very secure) and the drive bay holding clips simply work, I transport the case a lot and have had no slippages. The case includes a rear 120mm fan, which is very quiet but very effective. My only problem is the front vents (surrounding the power buttons and in the empty drive bay holders) which contain a foam for stopping dust entering the system. ... Read review

Advantages: Small,Looks Good
Disadvantages: very small inside not enough room for full size graf card

Hiper Media Center Case: Bought this Case for me bedroom to go with my new television, The first thing I thought when I seen the case was how small it was looks similar to a DVD Player in size and you would not fink you could fit a pc in there. The Case its self is Black with a Small button in the centre of the case, this is the power button to turn the computer on. On the Right Side of the case there is a Plastic panel the size of the CD Drive ...
...a built in remote sensor, Hiper have soon fixed this with the latest model it has both LCD Screen and Remote sensor but it is double the price I bought this case for £55 from Ebuyer and it cost £15 for the Low Profile CPU Cooler and it cost £12 for the PCI Riser card these were both from XCase, all in all I would say that it is worth it if you want a very tidy media center pc in your living room, Well worth the money but you need to make sure you ...

Advantages: Plenty of access via the side panel, handy front USB & Firewire sockets
Disadvantages: Quite large and heavy

Strong and sturdy, with plenty of room to work inside, and conservative, understated looks, I would rate this as an excellent case for a gamer's PC. It's a little large, but that shouldn't put off the serious gamer. The only problem I've had is that the door on the front has broken off (a silly mistake on my part, nothing to do with the construction of the unit. I don't know if it would be possible to replace the side panel to display case mods/lighting, ... Read review
