I'm looking for a solid case that looks elegant yet is effective as far as airflow. I haven't heard much about Ahanix but I really like what's included as well as the price tag of this case. I've said before I'm not a big fan of the cases that look like a Christmas Light competition with all the LEDs and cathodes and what not...just something simple, nice, and elegant that's under $75.

Does anyone know a good link for case reviews? I've come across various sites that have them but nothing dedicated specifically to case review.

Please tell me what you all think! Thanks!:D

A few reviews:

@ PimpRig
@ Mod The Box
@ Anandtech :)

It looks like a nice case, with spots for a 120mm in and out. A nice shape too.

EDIT: Misread your post. Thought you asked for sites with a review dedicated specifically to this case. I don't know of any - I usually just look at online stores and search for reviews of things that look interesting.

Most Ahanix boxes look good on the outside but are pretty chintzy on the inside - no toolless features, no hd vibration isolators, etc. I like the Black Knight's looks and Anandtech recently did a review of it. There is no one site that tests only cases but there are several that do quite a few, silentPC.com for one. I just use google and search for 'em, e.g.- Ahanix "black knight" review -,- Compucase 6A19 review -, etc.

So far from the reviews I've been reading, it sounds like a steal. It's boasting all these features of much more expensive cases but at a third of the cost. I think I'll get it. Thanks!

The only thing I don't like and none of the reviews touched on is a total lack of airflow by the front intake. Is this a problem? That's probably the one feature that would halt me from buying this right now. Any mod ideas to solve this problem or further word on the intake?
