Immediatly we get an answer to one of our themes “Serious Cooling Potential”: although the case only comes with 2x 120mm fans (which is plenty for a mid range setup), the case has 5x more mounts for fans.  7 Total fan mounts for a mid-tower case is quite impressive and well over the average for other cases in this size/price range.  We also get another hint to our theme of Build Quality: Steel case with ABS accents.  We’ll delve more into this later though.

Some other thoughts include the integration of USB 3.0 but a lack of USB 2.0 ports on the front of the case.  This gives it a clean look which we’ll see in our Exterior section.  3x 5.25″ and 4x 2.5″/3.5″ bays isn’t anything extraordinary but is plenty for the average user.
