Neon Computer Case

[scuzzy]

As most of you know, I bought a "Neon" case through ColorCase.com. Although I haven't received the motherboard yet, I figured I'd give you my thoughts on the case.



First off, it was $99 + S/H, and arrived packaged exceptionally well. It came out the boxes in pristine condition. The case has a smart look to it, and is fairly well constructed. As far as I can tell, this case is truly screwless, with the exception of mounting the motherboard. It comes with two 80mm controlled fans, is roomy, and very easy to get into. Dropping either side of the case is as easy as opening a car door. Pull a latch, and off it comes. No hassles. About the only thing to complain about is that the Pioneer DVD-ROM's cream color (along with the CD burner) doesn't match the case's silver color. Oh well.



Removing and reinstalling the hard drive cage, along with the 5.25" drive rails is simply too darn easy. I have no idea how it could possibly be made any easier. The same goes for the single bracket that holds the PCI & AGP cards. One single lever gives instant access to all the slots. Although I haven't tried to place a motherboard in it yet, I'm exceptionally pleased with this case. We'll see how well it cools once it's all put together.
