A fantastic budget case with a few small quirks
Pros:
Massive amount of space
Plenty of cable management holes and tie-down spots.
Comes with 4 fans (see cons)
Very sleek design, tons of IO on the front panel.
Two hard drive bays with a slotted connector. Makes installation a breeze.
Pretty good build quality.
Removeable fan filters.
Fan grille on the rear exhaust fan is a nice touch.
Cons:
Rear case fans are MOLEX connected. It seems that the fans were where the compromises were made. For whatever reason, one of the top fans and the front fan use the standard 3-pin case fan, but connect to a weird fan hub shared with the SATA backplane behind the drive bays. This backplane is also powered by a single molex connector. This became an issue with my build, as my power supply only had one cable with molex connectors. This is not a significant issue, as one could rearrange the fans to put the 3-pin ones in the rear close to the motherboard.
Overall, for the price this case was listed at (~$70), this is one of the best budget cases I have ever purchased. Do note that it is a VERY large case, so if space requirements are an issue, you may have to look elsewhere.
The cable management options are great, you get four fans out of the box, and the thing looks fantastic in an assembled build.

It lights up red!
Pros:
Lights up red!
XMP profile brings you up to 2400MHz.
Fair price.
Cons:
The modules are a little tall, and might cause conflicts with some CPU coolers. Check to see if this will be a problem before purchasing. Very minor issue.
Overall, ram is ram, heatsinks are there just for show. May as well buy something flashy if that's the style you're going for.

Perfect for working on Model M keyboards... strange though
Pros:
It's the perfect size for working on IBM Model M keyboards, the reason I bought it.
MADE IN THE USA!
Cons:
Smells... weird? Has that nasty old tool smell. OH WELL.
It gets the job done. Can't ask more than that from a screwdriver.
