Though many glaring faults ring at this product’s face – namely frustrating quality issues that the end user has to fix – this case is a sensational value for the money. Featuring the storage options of many far more expensive chassis, while providing excellent airflow, ICute has a great value on their hands here. With that in mind, a few small tweaks could be made to turn this from a $50 case, to one which would easily compete in the $100 echelons. Firstly, making the front HDD cage’s placement about 10MM back, and affixed with screws would give the end user the ability to easily install ANY fan they want, while making sure there’s plenty of Clearence. Secondly, thicker plastic MUST be used on the front panel, as one more hit of my FedEx man’s knee, and this case would have suffered the same fate as the first one – being absolutely destroyed. These suggestions past, though, I honestly have no qualms recommending this case to people looking into mid-high end cases – not only does it look great, but it has plenty of features everyone can use, especially the removable motherboard tray. It’s a darn hard thing to get me to say when it comes to a case, but ICute, you’ve impressed me with your 0508.
