What could have been an awesome front fan turned out to be just a gimmick, that fan placement is ridiculous...

I'd never buy anything Xclio related again. They don't have any offices in the USA and getting ahold of them for anything tech support related is hopeless. I had to get ahold of NewEgg and have them try to get ahold of Xclio to answer the 3 Warranty related e-mails I sent them using the e-mail addy right on their website. Luckily for me the power supply is now working fine, but still the same, I'll stick to product manufacturers that respond to customers instead of avoid them. And no, Xclio never did return an e-mail to me

Thats because Cooler Master makes awesome cases.

Review was good, and the case did have some potential before I saw behind the front bezel.
