I was thinking to buy this micro-atx case for 50$ new. Knowing it's an older model is there any of you who owned it in the past? I already have 2 X 120mm fans for the caase thats what make me think of buying it and of course the space limitation in my apartment.

What's your opinion on it ?

Thank you!

I have the bigger version of that case, you might be limited in cpu cooler height to 145mm I think, and the included fans get ticky after a few years but all the connectors and switches are still working for me.

Thank you. I was planning to change fan right away and my cpu wont be really high.

The fans in cheaper cases tend to be loud.

The fans in cheaper cases tend to be loud.

And replacement fans like the Arctic F12 PWM are cheap and reasonably quiet.

I already have bought 2 deepcool 120mm blue led fan. but what about the case itself and the design?
?

Airflow looks pretty good, decent number of 3.5" bays, but it doesn't look like there's any room in the back for cable management. The layout looks much better than the Inwin case my 4130 system is in, but I can't say anything about the build quality.

Looks like a decent case overall for $40 USD.

Where are you planning on buying it? Just so maybe we could give you some alternatives?

Amazon Canada and cable management should not be a problem since my power supply is modular. I usually put my optical drive in the lowest slot so i can tuck the wires between optical and top of case.

There is a review of it, right here on TPU, looks like a decent budget case, to me at least.

Reminds me of my current case, Deepcool Smarter, except the Smarter allows for some cable management.

I checked already and it's the only cheapest one in the smaller case with 120mm fans only
