This case comes with a 350w power supply which I mentioned earlier. The PSU is made by Turbolink and is Pentium 4 ready, I couldn’t find anything that said that it was “AMD certified” but I do know it will work just fine for basically any “normal” system. The PSU has 4 regular Molex, 2 berg (floppy), 12v, AUX, and main ATX power connectors. I opened up the PSU and didn’t really find anything unusually or extraordinary. Overall this looks like a good PSU to go along with a good case.
I didn’t have a complete system to install to this case other than my main system which I wasn’t going to do. I wanted to test the fans and power supply though so I just took a paper clip and stuck one end into the green pin and one into a black pin on the main ATX connector so that I could power it up without a motherboard. The fans power supply is very quiet but the fans are a little loud, they are tri colored LED fans that are blue, green, and red. Personally I don’t like the tri colored fans I like the solid colored ones but these are better than the pain black kind.
Conclusion
To be honest I didn’t think that I was going to be very impressed with this case because most of the time I don’t like pre-modded cases. Just because this is a pre-modded case though doesn’t mean that it is bad.
Personally I like modding a plain basic case to something cool but others dont have the time, tools, knowledge, or desire to do it themselves and pre-modded is for them. This case looks nice and has a lot of cool features like a preinstalled window, LED fans, 350w power supply, drive rails, removable hard drive cage, front USB/firewire, and a lot of other nice things.
This case retails for about $70 which is a really good price considering all that you get. If you are someone who wants a pre-modded case with lots of features and a good power supply this could be the case for you. If you like modding your case from scratch like I do I wouldn’t suggest this case to you.
Overall I am going to give this case a 9.5/10 and award it the OCmodshop Seal of Approval. I would like to thank Case-Mod for sending me this case to review.
