I love this case, it looks very cool when you actually see it in person. It has 4 usb ports, and.... get this...... 3 IEEE 1394 (firewire) ports! The case is alot easier to work with than you may think. I like the double side windows. The case feels of high-quality. The only thing i think needs improvement is the handle. It should have been made out of acrylic like the rest of the case. If you dont like it, there are no worrys, just get an allen head screw driver, and it comes right off.
The integrated video is actually usefull. It is slightly worse than the geforce2 mx. Just enogh power to satisfy a reguler user, but, of cource i just HAD to put a nice new xfx geforce4 ti card in there. The integrated video is overclockable, and quite nice for web browsing and a few small games.
This case also came with a GREAT stock CPU fan and heatsink. It holds up to a p4 2.8ghz, and also comes with small amount of thermal grease. The case also supports larger case fans unlike the other cube cases, but is not as intuitive as the shuttle heat-pipe system. The case also comes with a wierd kind of case fan. It is like the aero7 cpu cooler. The fan blows air out of the case with an AMAZING amount of blowing power.
Overall, I think any user would find this case a great find, although, it is very hard to find it nowadays.
This is my first Mini-cube case, and it is not HALF as hard as people says it is. It all comes pre-wired with the mobo intact. All you have to do is install the cpu/heatsink, a hard drive, and a cd drive, and you are good to go! how easy is that!
