Well, with the additional unscrewing of 6 screws in the front of the case you can dismantle the front of the unit and expose the fan filter that keeps those dust goblins out of your nice rig.


Dust filter plugged up a bit, remove it, wash it, dry it and reinstall it to keep your case air flow at its maximum.
CONCLUSIONS & AFTERTHOUGHTS

Want a aluminum case? What to save a couple of bucks? Don't need a window? Well, I would have to say that this would be a safe and intelligent purchase. For approximately $30 dollars less than the equivalent competition, you get sturdy aluminum-alloy lightweight construction, 150cfm's of airflow, removable motherboard tray, all black finish, gold trim and completely toolless entry. If by chance you do not like black, well check out www.kingwin.com and see their other colour options. I personally love the black & gold colour scheme which brings a somewhat luxurious look to my workstation. What can I say, it's a great case!
Pro's:
- Sturdy aluminum-alloy lightweight construction
- 150cfm's of airflow
- Removable motherboard tray
- All black finish with gold trim
- Completely toolless
Con's:
- Side case fan needs to be reoriented to act as an intake instead of an exhaust for better cooling
- No power supply included (Option?)
- Hmmmm, make the fans grills and trim real gold, YES!!! GREAT IDEA!!!
