    300R, too good to be true?

    Hey guys,

    Is this case too good to be true? I am looking at a case and I had coolermaster in mind (I always use them as they are good value/money) But this 300R looks awesome.

    If anybody has some feedback who owns one that would be great. Key areas for me is the quality of build as in the sturdiness.

    Many Thanks,

    Mike

    I purchased one a while ago and am extremely happy with it. For the money, it's a winner. Internals are a joy to work with, lovely cable management, screwless hdd caddies.....very good build quality.

    Can also recommend the 300R, only gripe is the amount of dust which gets in. Will be purchasing custom dust filters though shortly!

    I love my 300r, apart from the fan vents in the window. Hopefully I'll be able to buy a full window without having to get one custom cut, but I'm not holding out much hope...

    The window version looks pretty cool but I don't like the fan cut outs either, i may look into getting a replacement if i decide to get one.

    I don't own one, but I've built a couple of PCs with them. All round decent chassis.

    My only real gripe is that the cable routing holes should come with the rubber gromets - forgiveable in a £30 budget case, but not in this price bracket.
