Value and Conclusion

  • The Sunbeam Quarterback sells for $59.99 US Dollars without a power supply, or $69.99 with a 450W power supply.
  • Rich set of features for an inexpensive case
  • Optional power supply
  • Tool-less drives and PCI slots
  • Four 120mm fans included
  • Less-restrictive fan grills
  • Vented front
  • VGA vent too high on the side panel
  • No removable motherboard tray
  • HDD cage remove is not tool-less
The Sunbeam Quarterback is a nice case considering the price. With the tool-less drive bays and PCI slots, swapping out hardware is fairly easy. The only things that could have made it easier would be a removable motherboard tray and a tool-less HDD cage. Having the power supply option is nice. Users can add an entry-level PSU for $10 more, or buy the case without a PSU and add a more powerful one to their liking. The Core Fan system is another good idea that can help keep a system cooler with some extra airflow around the motherboard, though the fans can get in the way once installed in the system. The VGA vent is too high up on the side window, which prevents the video card or cards from receiving cooler air.
The front bezel adds a door that makes the case look as muscular as a quarterback, which definitely adds to its style. For those that dislike the front, but like the rest of the case, Sunbeam makes the Freezing Storm, which is identical except for the front door.
In all, I found the Quarterback a pleasure to work with for a case in its price range, offering features of higher priced cases without the extra cost.
