Nice looking, but ZERO instructions
Not happy with the complete lack of any functional documentation provided on the case, and where parts can be detached. I spent 20 minstrying to remove the plastic panel above the power supply (without breaking it completely), to install it until I figured out the plasticpanel was locked in by an interior screw. In the process one of the plastic tabs to keep it firmly affixed was broken, since I thought itwas slide off.The bag of parts has absolutely no documentation on how many and of what is in there, unless I do my own manual inventory. I am missing one ofthe 4 sticky disks for "feet"Also there is no way ( that I can see) to easily install an SSD drive in the detachable drive frame. Nor did the screws line up in the frame formy bluray drive, most cases have multiple screwholes or one long screw groove. And it took forever to line up the BluRay drive's frame so theeject button is reasonably flush with the plastic chrome button without always pressing the button.The LCD screen buttons and functions have no bearing to reality, nor any instructions. Not sure what the speaker graphic is about. While thetemperature is a nice attractive feature, rarely a problem for me and most people (except overclocking crowd) won't be needing it mucheither. Luckily I figured out the way to disable the screen entirely.And the vertical case holders don't lend themselves to easy moving or manipulation, almost requires two people to move the PC or a lot of backand forth adjustments.To be fair, the case looks nice, the interior is roomy. The company originally offered to send me missing parts, but I already worked around the failures and wanted remuneration for my time, still waiting on a response (yes or no) 5 days later.

Some bad, some good.
I was looking for a case this size and the price at Amazon was reasonable. Purchased a good SXF power supply and installed. The manual, which had to be downloaded, is essentially worthless. For example, it took me a while to discover how to remove the plastic cover from the top to get at the power supply screw holes.But here is the problem. The cute display on the front tells you the temp and shows the fan running but does not allow any meaningful modification. I found the leftmost of the three buttons caused the DVD drive to open when pressed. The display also emitted a high-pitched squeal constantly with no way to turn it off. (I noticed that one of the one-star commenters ran into this problem as well.) I was ready to send the case back to Amazon but decided to simply disconnect the front display, which connects to one of the four-pin plugs from the power supply. The squealing stopped but, of course, the display went dead--no real loss. I decided to keep the case because with a mini-ITX MB it was fairly roomy inside, unlike some smaller cases with no room inside to spare. So, on the positive side, the case is roomy inside, permits installation of two hard drives, has a USB 3 outlet on the front and looks okay, even with the dead display. And the price is good.

3 short beeps 3 times in a row solved.
I had to return it for a replacement.So I build the machine and turn it on to discover that I was getting 3 short beeps 3 times in a row. Not just 3 short beeps but 3 short beeps 3 times in a row equaling 9 beeps total. So it wasn't the RAM.The Fan's and Devices Monitoring did not work right. Every time I turned the PC on it would give out 3 short beeps 3 times in a row. And do the same when the computer was left on. This also created boot up problems for the system as it would hang. But as soon as I unplugged the cable connecting it to the power supply all problems went away. I tried different SATA connectors and all the same results.I ordered a replacement and it just arrived so I'll see if I get better results and will update this post.Replacement had the same issue.Sorry not sure if it was the PSU or what I just got a different model.

puzzling problem
I like thus case, I'd like it more if I could find out where and how the Power Supply is installed. This is a first for me and I've build a LOT of computers. A lot of them using Sentey cases, which I prefer because of their better construction and finish. Unlike some other cases, there are no instructions, diagrams pictures or anything about the layout of this case. I can figure out all the rest already but how do I fit a power supply? anddoes it go in the top front, if so how do I get it held in place?

Nice clean case.
Excellent case!Make sure you have the correct size power supply for it as it doesn't use a standard power supply.The display is pretty handy, particularly the temperature display.I placed the sensor next to the CPU under the heatsink. It gives a pretty good reading.The beeping of the temperature alarm is very annoying. But it can be turned off by pressing the volume up and volume down buttons together.The USB 2.0 and 3.0 are a huge plus on the front. Some motherboards give trouble with some USB 3.0 devices, so the USB 2.0 comes in very handy.The fan power can be set to increase as the temperature increases.Has a lot of nice little features and looks good.Overall very happy with the final look and feel of the case.

It's OK but description should be better.
Things I wish I knew before buying this case:1) 80 mm fan is the largest that this case was designed to work with. The one comes with the case is voltage adjustable, not pvm.2) regular psu does not fit. After looking over the case and rereading description, I ordered micro atx psu and it was still too big!3) "full color lcd" is gimmicks at best, buy version without one. It is not "full color" and control over voltage is very limited.
