Ugly, Reminds me of:

Looks to have the same problems as most of the cases out there at the moment.
A little too cramped width and depth not big enough and no removable hdd bays.

This whole area (see pic) being removable would go a long way.

Having said that if you like the looks seems pretty good nice cable management

Airflow is optimized with 5 fans(dual 200mm intake, 200 mm front fan, dual top 140mm fans, side 200mm fan, and rear 120mm exhaust). NZXT includes all the fans with the exception of the top 140mm and also provides a dual fan 8W per channel controller giving enthusiasts freedom to manage intake and exhaust airflow

Looks like a nice little bargain for £56 if you don't mind the exterior looks.Will be interesting to find out how much room is between the back of the case and the side panel for cable management.

no removable hdd bays.

Isn't that why we invented Dremels ?

 

[xyphox]

It looks mean. But I like stylish contemporary cases so it's not me.

yea but shouldn't need to they should all be making these cases like the eclipse with removable hd bay areas.

 

[Jokester]

Inside looks nice, outside, not so nice.

yea but shouldn't need to they should all be making these cases like the eclipse with removable hd bay areas.

True, I guess the cost of making them removable is too much for it to be sold at a good price

Anyone know whether the front bit can be removed? Wouldn't be half as bad without the mesh bit

 

[paradigm]

Looks bloody foul.

Also:

2bh i think most cases are a waste of money

Why think that? A case (a decent case) will outlive any computer you care to put in it. My previous case (Coolermaster ATCS-201-SXK) cost me £130~ give or take a few quid, and lasted me 8 years, a whole £16.25/year or 4p (yes 4 PENCE) a day.

More of an investment than a purchase. I don't see the point in scrounging on case choice when they last forever.
