Xion XON-990-BK Meshed Mid Tower Case - Black - Retail

I was looking for a case that would handle a 12"X 13" E-ATX motherboard. After checking several sights info and reviews I decided to contact one of the dealers that sells this very case. I talked to there technical dept. and they said this case would fit that motherboard. I ordered it, from Amazon, and it came today 11/25/13. Opened the box and looked inside the case and was skeptical about the motherboard fitting. I got the motherboard and it would not fit. The board was about 2" too wide to fit. This case is made for ATX or smaller motherboards. DO NOT ORDER THIS CASE IF YOU HAVE A E-ATX MOTHERBOARD! All the advertisements are incorrect and need to be changed at several sites selling this case. Needless to say I'm thoroughly disappointed. It would cost more to ship it back then to just keep it and use it for a future computer build using a ATX or smaller motherboard. Truth in advertising went out the window on this one.

I ordered this case for my latest PC build because of the external HHD Dock on top of the case. The case does come with two 120mm fans and I put two more 120mm fans in it. The dust filters are a very nice option to keep your case dirt and dust free. The computer build went pretty smooth, although instructions or pictures would have been nice, I can definitely see myself using this case again. I have been showing it off to friends, and they all have been impressed with the case.

Did a new install and needed a new case this was recomended to me by a friend and I have no complaints at all, plenty of room and ways to improve cooling, I added one fan to the case in the upper slot and with the cpu cooling tower I purchased as well I have had no problems with anything getting warm.

the guy that said that the plastic melted thats insane is a exelent case i live a link at tomshardware[...]

Awesome case great design ,easy to use. Well worth the money!

The exterior of this case looks very nice. However, what matters is what is in the inside. The HDD cage and expansion screw-less locks are made of plastic that makes it very flimsy. When either your graphics card, hard drive or CD-ROM is running at full load either as a gamer or a programmer, the plastic is prone to melt because of the high temperatures emitted by these computer peripherals. This case used poor material for its design without consideration of the thermal output from HDDs, CD-ROMs or graphics card by using meltable plastic to keep these items in place.If you happen to buy this item, you would also notice that the HDD cage has individual plastic hard drive holders. If you're HDD is spinning really fast, it can generate a lot of heat - up to 50 degrees Celsius. Plastic is sometimes known that it can melt at lower temperatures - sometimes known to melt at temperatures above 50 degrees Celsius. That's about 125 degrees Fahrenheit - the temperature of getting a cup of hot coffee fresh from your drip coffee machine and letting it sit for 5 minutes. When handling demanding loads such as rendering a video for Youtube, playing an demanding and intensive computer game or just programming, the plastic itself can melt because of this. Imagine having a sticky and gooey residue when you remove your hard drive after the plastic melted. :(.Overall, decent exterior but not not a good case inside. I do not recommend. I returned the one I bought from Newegg and bought a Rosewill Blackhawk instead on Amazon.

I bought this case believing the description. When I got it, it would not accept my 12" x 13" motherboard. So if you have an EATX or EEB motherboard and this case looks like a bargain, don't fall for it.
