Sure is. Probably the best cheap case out there.

My sister has it, cause it had blue on it.

Hi.

Yeah, IMHO that is a fairly nice case. One of the nice benefits of the Centurion line (I think that all or most are like this) is that the front is comprised entirely of grills. That is great for configuring optimal airflow through the case.

I owned a 530 for awhile, I ditched it because it was too small for my needs...

but I liked the full-frontal grill.

Agreed.

...it was just too small for my needs... actually my hands. They are fairly large.

Cool. I think I'll get it, but is there anything like this I should look at? I don't want plexiglass sides, but I'd like lights on top. Wierd I know.
