First impressions are very good. The cases is larger than I would have liked, but I knew this before buying, and it is one of the few premium HTPC cases to take more than a couple of cards, so you need to compromise somewhere.
The build quality is very good, with a thick and well-finished aluminium front panel, and very nicely finished case internals. The case takes ATX or Micro-ATX motherboards, and up to 7 expansion cards (it you have an ATX motherboard.
The supplied system fans are nothing to write home about, and a little noisy for my intended use, but the Zalmann cooler I'm using and generally cool-running components elsewhere have allowed me to disconnect them with no ill effects (my CPU is currently at 11 Celsius!).
I was able to mount my micro-ATX motherboard without difficulty, although I would have preferred a couple of extra stand-off positions near the front of the case (the front part of the motherboard isn't as well tied down as I would have liked). Drive bays are straightforward to fit and generally there is a reasonable amount of room in the case, although tidying the wiring after successful assembly is a bit of a challenge.
The case has a front VFD for displaying miscellaneous information, and the instructions are not as clear as I would have liked on installing this correctly - in fact, the unit would not power up initially due to a mistake I made in this area. You will need 4 USB and 1 Firewire headers on your motherboard to support everything on the front panel.
Once up and working, I'd like to note that the supplied VFD software is pretty useless, and that everything else about the case is great. I'm a software engineer, so I'll soon find uses for the VFD myself (APIs are provided).
If you are building a media PC and need more than two cards, this is one of the very best options I could find (and I spent a very long time looking). It looks good, is pretty easy to install a system into and has lots of room for expansion.
