Why can't designers realize that dual handles running across the tops of cases are all but useless? The best kind are the ones that run lengthwise, like on the NZXT Vulcan or this Apex case. Just make sure that they're really well attached to the chassis and it's good. The only way a horizontal handle can work is if it's in the center of the case, like on the CM Storm Scout.
I also like the HDD mounting system. The bungee cords would help the drives from getting knocked hard while moving the computer. Plus, no sound from vibration. |

$220 for some mesh!!!!! Might as well have an open bench lol. However I suppose one could build a passive system with this case.

Sweet, its been forever since I got to play with Legos!
Not really my style. It also seems a bit hokey for such an expensive case ($200), with those screw holes are exposed, etc,. but it looks like there's plenty of mounting options for fans, I wonder how deep those side panels are around the HDD bays... Hopefully they allowed for enough room for mounting radiators.. Quote:

Wow, I really like this case. Very interesting design, and seems like it would make installation/removal of hardware so much easier.

It's like Antec made a case for a cage match with your gpu vs your cpu. Which one will come out alive!?

TBH, I don't think he even uses the case before giving his opinion, he just points with a pencil and reads off the manual.

I saw it on this months issue of Maximum PC and fell in love with it. For the price though Id rather have a Corsair 800D or the 700d

this is ugly. and weird. and i was always against something with mesh from top to bottom, it hampers proper airflow, by mixing up the currents. its too hard to get rid of heat in these cases. the fans just circulate the air in the case instead of bringing in fresh air from outside and releasing exhaust.

The whole idea is cool and different
add some filters on that bad boy before it becomes one big dust box!

This most be the best damn design I've seen since Antec 900, well except the damn hole in the bottom of the box. Although, considering the airflow direction that won't do much bad
there, but as for flexibility that it horrid design flaw as far I see.
