I installed a Gigabyte B365M DS3H motherboard in this case. The Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo cooler with 4 heatpipes is a bit tight but fits. I mounted an Arctic F12 fan on the case door and used another to replace the included rear fan (because it was 3-pin, not 4-pin). The Thermaltake SMART 600W PSU fits nicely in the top, and all panel elements connect to the Gigabyte motherboard (except for the headphone jack, which I'll have to dig up one day. I wish there were rails for that along the ride). for installing drives - I currently have a couple of SSDs and the spinning drive is bolted to the drive cage. It would be nice if there was a built in cable manager, but I just have to be careful where the cables go. and the velcro straps are easy to find so they behave. I don't know of any complaints about the thinness of the metal - it's pewter. I didn't cut myself like I did in many cases of the "Golden Age" of the 90's. It's nice that both side panels can be detached for easier access to the sides of the drive bay. If the tray really came out it would be even better, but it's not for nothing that this is a budget case. The power LED on the front is blue, not overloaded. The power button and reset button are different sizes to avoid pressing the wrong button. Overall I'm very happy with this build. I expect to be able to fit a decent sized graphics card when the money comes in, although I may have to mount the fan inside out depending on the height of the card. Airflow seems good given the slow speed of the fans. (A 6-core system tends to hover around 40ยฐC).
