Review on Apevia Crusader-F-BK: Ultimate Mid Tower Gaming Case with Tempered Glass Panel, USB3.0/USB2.0 Ports, and RGB Fans by Bill Sorenson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Read before you go.

box in a box in a box. And it was still damaged. 3 stars because damage seems to be an issue. This and 3 days shipping after the label was created. This is a good case, but it's a wiring issue. Judging by the negative reviews, I understood almost nothing. I don't regret the purchase at all. 1. It comes with 3 extra ATX format motherboard stands. Use them or risk damage.2. Everyone complains about LED/fan cables. They're not that bad if you turn them all off. When reconnecting, make sure all the small connectors are connected together. The RGB switch only works for LEDs that have a small (3 pin I think) attached to it. The LED switch is already connected; just leave it alone.4. Air circulation isn't bad. To be on the safe side, I added an extra small fan at the top.5. I used a Corsair cx750m as the power supply. Most reviews state that there is no room for anything in the PSU slot. I had no problems. Modular or semi-modular way for this case. In fact, there are 5 hard drive slots on the case. 2 HDD in front of power supply, 2 SSD 3.5 inch inside, MBA. 1 2.5" SSD behind the wall where the MB is mounted (shown).6. Don't forget to connect the fans to the power supply. Unfortunately I have lol. All LEDs/fans work properly. Very quiet.7. The instruction manual is easy to use when needed.8. An SSD mounting bracket will not work in this case. FYI.9 only. It includes 2 sets of hard drive rails.10. My kit had all the necessary screws and a few other items. Did it cost $75-80? Yes, in general. The damage most likely came from the company side as the inside of the product packaging was different and damaged. May I recommend it? Yes, not necessarily during the initial assembly, as the lighting wires can interfere. The location of the wiring holes is also not very convenient.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Suitable for
