Hello !

There is this case that looks very nice (my opinion) and not expensive. http://www.ncix.com/detail/xigmatek-mach-black-atx-tower-9d-99810-1342.htm

I failed to find any test or review so, does anyone know if it's a decent (read: not mediocre) case ?

Also, i'm totaly confused about how many fans are included.
On ncix it says:
"Includes two pre-installed high performance silent Xigmatek 140mm LED fan with FCB (Fluid Circulative Bearing) for ultimate exhaust capabilities."
and
"Pre-installed rear 120mm Xigmatek silent XOF black/black fan with FCB (fluid circulative bearing)
Pre-installed top 120mm Xigmatek silent blue LED intake fan with FCB (fluid circulative bearing)
Pre-installed front 120mm Xigmatek XOF black/black fan with FCB (fluid circulative bearing)"

On Xigmatek website, it says pretty much the same.

But, on the very few pictures i can find, i've never been able to see more than one fan.

So, if anyone know, how is this case ? And, 1, 2 or 3 fans included ? 140 or 120mm ?

Thanks !

I bought it and recieved it today so i thought i'd just answer my own question in case someone is searching for the same thing.

It comes with 3 fans (i think they are all 120mm, but not 100% sure about the top one). The top one has blue leds. (EDIT: The fans are all installed)

The case feels cheap. Alot of plastic, very thin metal. I wouldn't feel safe to carry it around alot. The HDD are directly on the case and it make alot of noisy vibration when the head is moving. The slots for cards in the back are wierd (can't really explain)

So, cheap case, cheap price, 3 included fans (one has blue leds), good look (in my opinion). If you are on a low/tight budget, don't want to carry it around alot, and run SSD as primary drive, (or don't...

Pictures indicate a front and top fan, but every picture looks like it's missing the rear exhaust, which is kind of confusing. If they're all 120mm, it wouldn't be hard to shuffle things around if the out of the box installation is dumb.
