| Conclusions |
Sunbeamtech 9-Bay Acrylic case (AC-9B-HUVB) is a 100% transparent case targeted to the average user that wants to build a system with a very different looks. Strong Points - Excellent material.
- Excellent cost/benefit ratio.
- Excellent ventilation, with places for up to six fans. Big holes with no mesh for the fans allow the fans to deliver their maximum airflow potential.
- Very light.
- A delight for DYI users.
Weak Points - You have to be very careful to not scratch or crack your case.
- Requires extra time for you to put the case together, increasing the PC building time by around one hour.
- Holds only up to four (or five, if a floppy disk drive isn’t used) hard disk drives, so high-end users will probably want to look for a different product.
- No screwless mechanisms or thumbscrews for holding daughter boards, optical drives or hard disk drives.
- No anti-vibration mechanisms for the hard disk drives.
- The reset and power buttons are too tight in their holes, making them to get stuck sometimes.
- Comes with only three fans. It should have come with at least the top 80-mm fan and one more 120-mm fan for the front panel.
- No cover for the top 80-mm hole. If you don’t buy an 80-mm fan your case will have a hole on its top panel. This is the main aesthetic flaw from this case.
- Comes only with one fan grill. Most fans will remain “open”, being injury hazards.
- No dust filters for the fans. Your PC components will be filled with dust in no time.
- The two USB ports are too close to each other, preventing the installation of two “fat” devices at the same time.
- The presence of the manufacturer name on the left panel may be a non-desirable feature by some users that want a 100% transparent case.
