Comment: The bottom line is Core 3000 is a beautifully designed case. It looks great with its two tone white and black elements and is one of the best value for money mid-towers on the market due to the cooling fans and other features. It comes highly recommended by Vortez.net

Overall this board looks great and for its price the cons are manageable. The cons of this case are not really serious issues. (Read More)

Case looks and feels awesome and for such a low price point, it certainly does not feel cheap! (Read More)

For 45$ it was a nice deal. It's not worth more than 50$ though. The haf 912 and zalman z9 just have as much features as this one for cheaper. (Read More)

Even with the cons I'd say this is a 4 star for me, the pros more than outweigh the cons.. Excellent case for the price when on sale. (Read More)

I'm a first time builder so the case was easy to use and had enough features to make installing my parts easy. I'm pretty sure there are better cases out there but for the price its a great budget case. I upgraded from a really old PC so I'm quite happy with how easy this case was to work with. (Read More)

I bought this case to house a computer I building for music recording and production. I had to use tools to get the motherboard screws installed as well as some of the screws for the PCI slots. That issue aside, my install was very clean and easy and was surprised I was able to fit in my EVGA GTX580, mind you I had to keep the middle hard drive tray in the sideways orientation, but I also had to take it out to fit the card in (or take it out). Overall I am very pleased with this case and would buy another one if I was on a tight budget, but I would 100% definitely give their higher priced cases a run. (Read More)

Great case with a simplistic design. Fans with filters and controller is a nice bonus. I would recommend this case, if it was on sale. I don't think this case is worth more than $60. (Read More)
