Is it past labor day already? Every white case is getting cleared out, apparently. Anyway, this is a nice case, great for a sub-$600 budget build. You may only be saving $20 vs the nicer 230, but every penny counts, right?
^ Good price but I wouldn't put it that way. There are so many ATX cases out there with thicker metal, even if you have to resort to a used OEM case sitting around at a mom 'n pop computer shop.
Bottom mount PSU, wire management, etc are features that are irrelevant to me. Just make it sturdy, quiet, and with a filtered front air intake or at least a bezel design that lends itself to adding a DIY cut to fit filter panel.
This case is very poor for the latter as they felt the need to put in not just a side panel fan mount but two top mounts, a 2nd bottom mount, and perforations in the rear, all of which would need blocked to make a front intake filtration setup work as intended.
It takes a high powered gaming system to need more than the PSU and 2nd rear exhaust fans in addition to the two front intake fans. That this case has mounts for 8 x 120mm fans just adds to dust and noise.

Thank you!
