Exterior (Cont):

The front bezel has a blue, transparent plastic covering on it that gives it a little different look from the plain colors that some cases have. There is a nice size power button that is easily accessible and it has a blue LED inside of it to let you know if the power is on or not. In addition, this case features 2 USB ports, one IEEE 1394 port, and a speaker and microphone port all on the front of the case. This is very convenient for those who switch out their USB and Firewire devices a lot since they will not have to go to the back of the motherboard to plug/unplug any devices. Another thing to note about the front of the case is the reset button. It is not super small like some cases where you have to use a pen or something small to reset the switch, the user can easily access the button. In addition, another thing to note about the front panel is that at the bottom there are air vents for the two fan mounts on the inside.

Looking at the side of the case there is a nice size window. It is not completely clear but has a blue tint to it like the plastic on the front bezel. Located in the very center of the window is an 80mm fan with multi color LEDs. The LEDs are bright and give the case that extra little bit of glamour. The fan pushes a decent amount of air but is quiet. Super Flower definitely designed this case with low sound in mind.

The side panels are both removable and are held in place using thumbscrews, which is just another convenience because you will not have to get a screwdriver every time you want to open or close the sides. The thumbscrews also have Phillips inserts so that you can use a Phillips screwdriver to make sure it is extra tight if needed.

The back of the case is the standard layout. There is the back plate for the motherboard connections and the PCI slots. There are tiny holes on the back of the case for increased airflow. There are also two 80mm spots for fans or one 120mm fan.
