[Crashman]

The Pandora ATX offers a surprisingly high-end feature at an equally surprising price. How well does the rest of the case stand up to its competitors?

I don't understand how something like that is good against any Phantek or Fractal Design cases.

So the bottom line is: It's a decent enough case to buy if you like how it looks. If they integrated system status into the front-panel display then maybe it would have an edge up on competition on anything other than "hey, this would look cool on my desk".

Even a criticism of the lack of a fan hub/controller is kind of moot since if you are going to buy this, you're going to buy it for how it looks and can shell out a little extra for a fan controller.

I don't think behemoth case (ATX) looks good on your desk, no matter how much sugarcoating vendor throws in. Electronics shrunk over decades, but PC components manufacturers seems failed to notice. For me personally even standard mATX is too big, I have mATX board + GTX 970 inside 11"x11"x7" enclosure. (I had to remove PS cover and ventilator to fit it). This little box is bolted to the wall beneath the desk, out of view.

I've never seen so many rubber grommets in my life.
