COUGAR Conquer Mid-Tower Case

Everybody who's not tech savvy thinks I'm building a robot.

The case being unique definitely turned some heads whilst carrying it home as well as confuse family members as to what I was building. The case itself if quite unique and the price drop from 300$ originally 2 years ago to 239$ was very nice. Pros: - Partially DIY build: It doesn't come pre-assembled and many people don't like the instructions manual, but it's fairly straight forward and exciting to build, just adds another fun process to build... Show Moreing your own PC. - Sturdy: Before putting on the glass it wobbles only slightly, it won't tip over but it isn't perfectly still. Once you put on the glass panels however it can withstand a bull-charge if you're brave enough to test it out. - Looks unique: This is self explanatory. Also open air is my ideal preference and this helps that preference look goooood. Also most pieces can be removed for custom paint jobs. Cons: - Metal not treated: Your fingerprints and oily skin will leave marks. Easily washable but a little annoying. - Tempered glass: I can understand leaving a logo on 1 of the glass panes, but BOTH? That upset me. It becomes a little hard to notice when it's installed because it's on the back side of the glass and thus blends in with the background, but still... - I/O: Not that many features for front I/O. Only a mic in and sound out port. restart and power on, and 2x USB 3.2 Gen 1 (USB 3.0). - Fans: The fans that came with it are only good for the basic setup before you get your own fans. They work okay but they look tacky to me. Overall: I'm glad I bought this case, it's recommended you water-cool your build on this purely to make it look showcase ready good, and with a spacious open frame your imagination can go as wild as you want. I only gave it 4 stars because Cougar brands their items too much, it takes away from the appeal. This case is unique to them everybody who sees it will either know or ask, there's no need to brand it all over.Show Less
