Test build

To test the ease of use on this case, I built a system with the following components:

MSI 890FXA-GD70 ATX motherboard
8GB (2x4) Corsair Dominator memory
Sapphire HD4870 video card with Thermalright T-Rad2 cooler
Asus DVD recorder
Western Digital 3.5” hard drive
EVGA 500-watt ATX power supply
Raijintek Ereboss CPU cooler

Overall the installation was fairly painless.  While I did have some trouble connecting the power to my video card, removal of that center drive bay would have made that simple.  The huge Ereboss air cooler fit the case without a problem, and the cavernous space between the motherboard tray and the right side panel made tucking away the unused cables a breeze.  The huge side panel will likely encourage even the most slovenly PC builder to tidy up their system a little bit.
