Wow, amazing that there's absolutely NO cable cutouts. I think I would have dropped the score to at least B+ for that, because it truly turns what could be a neat, flowing build into annoying clutter.
Hey nice don't forget to post it at OC3D
or maybe you already did...
Verdict got upped because of overall value due to price, the amount of space inside, and the sound dampening. If this was a $150 case, it would've knocked it out of the A- range.
Haha SnW Tiny Tom doesn't want me posting my videos on OC3D. So that's a no-go.

Aa i didn't know that , shame i like them.. will read (watch) them on here thenOriginally Posted by SirJamesD
I see your point James, and did hear those comments in the vid, so I figured that was part of the reason for the A-. I happen to feel there are plenty of cases that offer more at an equal or less price though, some of which aren't known about or trusted merely for their name.
Today's standards are different than yesterday's. To omit cable cutouts on a full tower case is a huge offense IMO. Most buying a budget full tower case are going to have A) an affordable non modular PSU, and B) a PSU with long cables.
It's basically leaving the consumer with not only lots of clutter and restricted air flow, but less bay space to use as well. For the latter reason alone the case becomes less of a full tower, and in the mid tower class the CM 690 II blows this one away.

Another one representative of 'we are the Borg' case design. Where all the simplicity went?
