    Not going to win any beauty awards this case... If they made a version of this with less bits sticking out and maybe make a simple straight front, I'd be more interested, but this currently lLOOKS like a piece of cheap, tacky, plasticy, rubbish.. Although it seems good, it just looks hideous.

    First impression was not very good all pointie with an angry face at the top! Shame really as it rather a clever design internally.

    Re: Reviews - SilverStone Raven RV03

    I agree about this case... lovely design but a bit of a minger. You guys know about the FT02 right?

    Similar thermal design but with the fortress styling.

    Features are good but it looks horrific! Why so many unnecessary angles everywhere?
