I had all the other parts to build a new system. Everything except a new tower. I found this "VIVO ATX Mid Tower Economy Computer Gaming PC Case" on desertcart. It looked good and the price was right. And the blue front fan matched the fan on my new 700 watt power supply. Everything went together easily. The case was very easy to work in. The DVD burner, card reader, and a couple HDDs went in super fast with plenty of room to spare. Easy cabling, almost all of it hidden. Every thing on the front works. I'd buy this case again. I'd also recommend it to anyone who's working on a budget, that wants a cool looking case for some easy money!! Review: Good case but no scaffolding for spinning hard drives - This is an adequate case. The look is good and it is functional. Although this works well for my current purpose, I'm taking off a star because I do have computers for which this would not work. In particular, there's no scaffolding on which to mound hard drives. There are a couple of holes in the side of the interior structure on which you can mount (sideways) an SSD, which I did. However, I do have computers that have multiple regular hard drives and if I wanted to put them in here there would be no place that I can see for them. Anyway, this was cheap, looks good, and was easy go put together. If you only have an SSD (or perhaps if you are better at figuring out what they were thinking with this design) then this will work well for you

Can't complain
For the price, it's a great case. It comes with screws to mount everything. I didn't know that and went out and bought screws, so I'll save you the trouble and tell you that they are in a little bag zip tied to the power switch cables. It kinda bugs me that you have to actually break the expansion slots in the back to put in PCI cards such as a graphics card or network card, but honestly, I don't personally care TOO much. Just only take out what you need so you don't leave a giant hole for dust and other fun things to come in through. It's the same with the front expansions for disk drives and whatnot. Once again, only take out what you need. Everything else is great though. I've only been using it about a month now, but I don't see it having many issues for the next few years. It's a sturdy case. This is for regular ATX, to be clear, I don't think it would work with micro or mini atx because the slot in the back for all the motherboard ports would be too big. Highly recommended though if you're going all out on a build like I did an want to save a couple bucks on the case. Or even if you're putting together a pretty low-key rig. Works for them all.

Seriously, you get what you pay for. Good.
Everything about it screams its price range. Nothing wrong with that, can't expect to get a lambo for the price of a Kia Rio. Things to note as 'as expected' for the price range... To complain about the material considering the price range would be a waste of breath. There is only one included fan. No complaint with it as it works, is blue, and I was told in the description that only one is included. For tower cases with a pretty small footprint like this one, it's no surprise that the one half of the fan side vent is more aimed for a slim 120mm fan. This is due to the fact that the power supply takes up the same area, so will not fit a regularly sized 120mm fan. Very little in the way of cable management... like most (if not all) cases in this price range. I mean, if you really wanted a budget case that had some idea of cable management, why are you looking at a $38 case when there's the CM HAF 912 (though that would cost you another $20 in amazon at the time of this writing). If there is a case in the $38 price range where the case gives decent room to hide cables and make everything look neat, let me know. PCI slot covers are not reusable, as expected. I find that it's pretty well-designed for a low-end case. It's quite small for a tower, like the Rosewill Redbone Black, yet my GPU can fit (imo) comfortably. Though I had to do some lateral-action to get a HD 5970 in it, I was well surprised and satisfied that it could still fit the gpu power cables and a 2.5 drive in the same area of the cage. It's basically a tight-fit, but it works and nothing dangerous to the components imo, like the power cables being bent too hard to fit. There's a CPU cutout, which is good. All-in-all this is one of my better case purchases at this price range. I wouldn't recommend it for those looking for a budget case for a server that will hold multiple hard drives. The layout isn't really for it, especially with the extra room laid out with the intent for a long GPU, instead of a regular hard drive cage. For a budget gaming case, especially if you're looking to buy really long GPUs released within the last 10 years because of cryptominers running up GPU prices, this case is considerable.

Build Quality: Despite being thin, the materials used in the case's composition are sturdy and certainly don't look cheap. The panel is easy to remove, and while some reviews mention how easy it is the bend the thin metal, I would not consider that a knock on this case, considering its low price, and the fact that; With a little patience and care, the risk of bending the metal is eliminated. The Power button is TACTILE which is a very nice bonus I was not expecting. It has a very confident *CLICK* response when pressed. I/O: Decent front panel I/O for the price. 1 USB 3 and 2 USB, plus mic and speaker jacks and a handy RESET button. Nothing overly exciting, but once again it's not an expensive case. Size: On the smaller side for an ATX MOBO, My Asus B450M barely fit, but with a little patience once again, the cable management can be very clean, and the PSU being at the top of the case, is actually a handy placement for getting the cleanest cable management. My only knock on this case, is that the pre installed fan, while being good quality and fairly quiet, is clipped in rather than mounted with screws. This means that replacing it with another fan, would require that new fan to be exactly the same shape and dimensions as the pre installed fan, which in my case, it wasn't. There also aren't any screw holes as far as I can tell, to properly install a new fan in place of the pre existing one. All in All, worth every penny. If it was $10 more however, There would be ten or so better options on the market! Great product from V-I-V-O!

Really like this tower, very sturdy, nicely finished off and comes with a case fan in the front with blue lights which looks pretty neat. Lots of room. Only quibble I have is I would have like more slide in bays for 3.5 inch drives - there are two at the bottom but one space is in front of the fan so the drive sticks out a bit. Other than that, it is great.

Horrible case. Very old fashioned and outdated design on the case. The case was shipped to me with the front case fan broken. I decided to replace the fan but then realized that besides the front panel space is terrible if you want to add new case fans as your CPU fan and GPU will get in the way. The only positive thing about this case is the two side panels as there's more room to work with but the case is extremely cheap made so you will feel as if you are bending your motherboard when pushing in ram and GPU and heatsink. Would have bought for 10$ not 50$

Nice case, works great.

Arrived promptly. Well packaged, As described. BUT the foam "air filter" is only accessible for cleaning by popping off the front panel, removing the fan, straightening the bent sheet metal tabs securing the filter frame then removing the filter. This can only be done a few times before the metal tabs break off from metal fatigue. The filter appeared too dense for the fan's discharge pressure which would impede flow to much (I am in the HVAC profession). Great idea but not a good design. I removed the filter and will blow the dust off the CPU and other components the same way I did on my old tower. I have two standard 5 1/4" drives and one SSD. The drive bays are in front of the fan discharge which partially blocks the flow. I like the removable sides and the blue LED's on the fan are pretty cool.
