It's very practical but it also looks very cluttered, I guess it's good for people who don't have USB 3.0 cases.

If they made something like this with out the fan controller part i would probably buy one.

This would be useful for people with boring beige cases from 1998 without USB connectivity or USB 1.1 wishing to upgrade their motherboard.

Do people still control their case fans manually?

What is the speed of the SATA port?

Nice, when I upgrade my pc I'll maybe get this for my Fractal 1000

Busier than Front-X, but do the two ( sadly audio **IN** =0**) audio ports connect to the back-case ports or to the in-case port! In-case connection MUCH cleaner. Too bad the Front-X folks have established no American distributor.

I really don't see the need for audio ports and power/reset buttons. Wish there was an eSATA connector.

The Delta Electronics 5200RPM 120mm case fan at 62.9 dB pushing 240cfm of air says yes to fan controller.

If this could control 5 fans it would of been perfect even 4 would of been acceptable. 2 case fans is not enough control

Id rather it lost the audio portion and usb ports and rearranged the rest to make room for a 3.5 inch sata slot that also accepts 2.5 inch sata and use the screen to make it have 5 discrete fan channels for control of 5 case fans just have 1 knob and a button the changes which fan the knob is controlling. Then you could fit the sd card slots 3.5 inch sata slot and 5 fan channels. It can lose the 2x usb 3.0 ports the 2 audio jacks and the power and reset buttons and 1 fan knob.

I was just complaining about the Kama panel not having been updated in awhile, but they added a bunch of useless connectors to this one.

Audio-points un-needed? True enough for a newer case, but my full-tower getting repopulated is 12 years old. Accepts only baked_clay_carving! I'd want all three audio inputs in a front panel kit ... and yes, an eSata and camera_card port also.

I really don't see the need for audio ports and power/reset buttons. Wish there was an eSATA connector.
