I see several things wrong with this case.
.The front is ugly
.The cable management holes are way to small
.The top fan mounts need grilling or meshing or something to cover it up, the way it is now is ugly in my opinion
.Another mid tower with the same cooling design as hundreds before it

Good things
.Its got black interior
.CPU Mounting hardware access through the back of the mobo tray

Personally I'd say fail...although that's just my tastes.

Doesn't look too bad, though the front looks a bit weird.

The chassis under the plastic and the side window shape look quite familiar....

http://www.bjorn3d.com/read.php?cID=1270&pageID=4795

2 140mms on top, bottom mounted PSU, rear 120, side 120, front 120. They basically got the tempest, Swapped the front panel and took a 120, took off the top panel, and painted it black. I wish they made the tempest with this black painted interior.

Basically they changed the entire motherboard tray layout, the HDD cage arrangement, and used lower quality materials than the Tempest. Then painted it black.

The price is nice and while I'm not the kind of person who takes looks too seriously the front makes me want to bash it in.
