Rosewill Gaming ATX Full Tower Computer Case Cases Thor V2-W Black, White

Pros:Price - This case is on the lower end of the Full Tower case prices, but the plastic and steel are definitely not cheap and don't feel like I can easily bend/break it. As such, I'm sure it will last me for years and that I won't have to worry about damaging it.Size - This case has a lot of extra room especially if you have an ATX motherboard so that you can easily fit custom water cooling equipment and pipes in the empty space, which I plan on doing. They also say it fits up to a 330 mm GPU but since mine is nowhere near that yet (I couldn't get the GPU I wanted since my previous case wasn't large enough) I don't know if that holds true or not. I'll update if and when I get a GPU closer to that size.Fans - They give you all the fans you need, but their design allows you to put multiple 12 0mm and 140 mm instead of the provided 230 mm fans. As my computer stays cool under load (CPU has dedicated pre-built water cooling) I see no reason to switch out the huge fans at this time. Also, the 2 fan speed controllers work well, but aren't really necessary with the large fans since they're very quiet at full speed anyways. If I replaced with higher airflow fans the fans speed controllers (2 which can each support 3 fans) would probably be more useful/noticeable. Only gripe in this regard is only 1 provided fan has red LEDs (very very tiny gripe)HDD Mounting - Their metal sliders already include 2.5 SSD mounting slots and hardware so no extra adapter needed which was nice for me.Cable Management - They put ample space behind the motherboard and provide you with cable ties and anchor points for them so if you're really anal you can have everything tied down very cleanly and nicely.Cons:Dust Screens - Only the front and bottom has dust screens of any kind. As I live with animals and in dusty environments at college, this could mean cleaning it out much more often.Fins - They look really cool, but honestly being able to control them is pointless. They should have just made them solid and open but it's pretty minor that they're not.Disk Drive - The tool-less mounting is nice, but their opening is just big enough to fit a disk drive from the front and the screws that they mount their tool-less push button locks scratch the side of the disk drive. Not a big deal but it made getting the drive in harder than it should have been.Final Thoughts:None of the cons were enough for me to knock a star off, but mostly just things you should consider somewhat when comparing it to other cases. As this is not my first Rosewill case or product, I'm extremely happy with the quality and price. Nothing was missing and all the cables were correctly marked so even an inexperienced builder shouldn't have trouble putting components into the case. Also the simple front panel lighting for HDD activity and the lit THOR logo are really cool looking, but not obnoxious or too bright and because of it's name, my computer is now named Thor (seriously she names everything) courtesy of my Fiance. Finally, everything is working great and I absolutely love it.

Pros:1 - Very heavy case with excellent build quality and good design. The vents on top that open seem flimsy, but I haven't had any issues.2 - Lots of airflow. The case comes with 3 fans with a spot to add a 120/140mm fan on the floor. I was surprised to feel how much air this case moves. The case is also water-cooling ready.3 - Cable management. There are lots of ways to run cables behind the motherboard and around to reduce clutter. I've always had messy-looking cases, but this one is very clean.4 - Chassis fan control build into the front panel. Even at max speed, those 240mm fans are relatively quiet.5 - Front bay management. It's very, very simple to add and remove devices from the front 5.25"/3.5" panel(s). No need to remove the front of the case or use screws for anything (except the 3.5" bay, but that's also engineered to be very simple and user friendly).6 - I like the hard drive trays. It makes mounting very easy and the orientation makes for easy cable routing. SSDs will also easily mount on the trays with included hardware.Cons/Wishlist:1 - I would have liked to have an SD card slot in the front panel.2 - Could use an extra 1/2" of space or so behind the motherboard side wall. I routed my main motherboard power cable back there along with about 15 other cables and I needed to put some muscle into forcing the side wall back on. I'd rather not have to do that.Suggestions:1 - If you want to run your 12V ATX power cable behind the motherboard, you may need a 6 or 8-inch extender. With a bottom mounted PSU, running a cable behind the wall and all the way to the top is probably not an option without an extension.Overall - Excellent case. My only cons are things that I wish they'd done differently, but they don't warrant me removing a star. This case moves a ton of air at an affordable price.

I bought this case as part of a new build and it has SO much room.Bottom mount PSU with intake screen means your PSU is pulling in fresh cool air, not heated air from inside the case.Comes with 4 fans, front fan features red LED accent with on/off switch tucked into the lower grill.There is an open 5th fan location on the bottom, but be aware using it may block the lower row of connections on larger modular PSU's (see photo, that's an EVGA 1200P2 with a Thermaltake 14 fan)).Pros:Lots of room, plenty of grommet cuts on the back plate for a clean cable install.Tool-less for the most part, covers and expansion slots all use thumbnails.External bays use tool-less click locks. I had no issue with them, install the drive, engage the click locks and then slide the drive gently back and forth until it clicks.Top multi-function panel has two USB3 and two USB2 ports, an eSATA port, HD Audio headset and mic ports, on/off switch and two fan controls that each can control 2 fans as a bank.There are also two LED strips on either side that serve as power and HD activity lights.Cons:None really, this case is LARGE, make sure you have the room for it!When installing your system, leave the GPU for last, it tends to get in the way of running the other wires.Not a lot of data on the top panel as far as the fan controls go, since I used the motherboard fan controls (ASUS ROG) I want to try to use the case controls for something else. Maybe LED light strips?Conclusion:This is a solid case especially at this price point. I'd have no trouble purchasing again if need be.
