Free shipping is killer. I love these cases, best one for under $100 hands down, even over Tsunami's. Easy. Used 4 of each for builds, and the flimsy aluminum with the gimmicky ports on the top can't approach the solid, attractive build of this baby.

How good is the construction of this case. From the pics, it looks kinda cheap.

Great cases; all of the Centurions. That is brushed aluminum on the front ports.

Solid as a rock, you can't get much better than this in a steel case without spending big, big bucks.

My experience says yes, they are very quiet. But the side panel is very open, as is the front. If other components are noisy, like a south bridge fan, you will hear them.

My opinion:

This is THE best case for the money. Period. Solid. Incredibly easy to work with. Just a couple of tips. After removing the front panel to unscrew the drive slots (The drive slot covers are attached by screws, just another solid part of this case):

1. Install your front fan NOW if your are replacing the stock fan.
2. Snap the panel back into place BEFORE installing optical drives, hard drives, floppys, etc.
