In summary, we think this is a terrific product for the user that is looking for an above-the-average mid-tower case. We were really impressed by its quality and options. The only real negative point about this case for the Average Joe is its price. However, if you are looking for a high-end mid-tower case full of options and won’t mind paying more, this case is one of the best options available on the market and won’t let you down. You may even consider P193, which costs only USD 10 more and comes with two 140-mm fans on the top and one 200-mm on the right side.
