Apart from that horribly cheap HDD bay and PCI retention mechanism overall looks like a decent case.

But only at that price, cause any more would put into the "auto no-buy" category IMHO :)

Also, calling it a "WOOD" case is disingenuous at best, misleading & deceptive at worst...since the only wood parts are the 2 front inserts...

I got excited when I saw the tag line, thinking maybe, just maybe, something different & possibly unique was coming, only to be soooo disappointed to see it is just another same ole same same boxen :(

Two small veneer pieces make this worthy of having "wood" in its name? Leave it unattended for a year or so, there will be more dust than there is wood on this case.

Dont care about the "wood" related marketing, overall its a very well ventilated case which is a rarity in that price class.

On the other hand, imagine a world where wood PC cases do take off and us, PC enthusiasts, become the target of eco-nuts, like those that used to splash paint on people wearing fur :rockout:

Looks OK to me. I don't really care about the wood though, what little of it there is.

Someone here recently completed a real woodstation. It was very nicely done.

I don't think I can install any firmware in that case. Not enough wood. AGESA will not be happy.

I guess we can see what's the new trend in marketing. :laugh:

Would be interesting to put a 5090 there, instead of just the card/cables/connector burning, now you can have your whole case burned down. :D
