Conclusion
If you want a small compact LAN box that isnt going to cost the earth then this is the case for you. There are other SFF cases on the market but I will be waiting for the main quality case manufactures to make their MATX solution. The system I built at the time was a very high spec, and compared with going the shuttle route the diffrence was about £150. Im not saying shuttles are a rip-off because they are very high quality products and alot of ideas go into making them but when you see that a MATX case is £60 a good motherboard is £70 the prices start to look more appealing and you can taylor the computer to suit your needs from the start.
Pro's
- Highy customisable nice looking case
- Comes with a 200w PSU and doesnt affect the cost
- Good build quality
- Well layed out
- Ideal for LAN's
Con's
- Psu may limit from very high end machine
- Limiting on drives i.e u cant have more than one cd unless u go laptop drives
- No front intake fan (note: should be easy to mod the case to have a intake but would like it as standard)
Info and thanks
Would firstly like to thank Kustom PC's in stocking such a great case along with MO LCD's and all with great service and customer service.
Cheers to the help and ideas from Leon on forums.hexus.net he also has two YY-A102's but shamefully hasn't modded them yet :(
