Searched, found nothing on them here.

Does anyone have any experience with them? I'm looking at this;

Sentey Burton Series GS-6500

Looks pretty nice and reviews seem great but I'd like to know if anyone here has built with them etc.

Not familiar with them, nor could I find any reviews of that particular case, but overall, the few reviews for their cases that I did find weren't "glowing," but not terrible either.

Pros:

+ Good basic cable management
+ Some nice exterior features
+ The mechanisms for storing HDD are well made
+ Well made Mult-Card Reader
Cons:

- Lacklust cooling performance
- Could use better advanced cable management
- Some people may not like the appearance
Ratings:

* Performance: 8.25
* Appearance: 9.25
* Construction: 8.75
* Functionality: 9.25
* Value: 8.25

It appears they're fairly new to the US market, so if you decide to buy this, please let us know what you think. Pics are always welcome.

I just reviewed this, I don't know if it's okay for me to post my own review, so I'll PM it to you if you'd like (unless an admin gives me permission, in which case, PM me if it's okay).

One of the best cases I've gotten the chance to handle. A ton of features, and I cannot wait to build in it, it should be the easiest I've had in terms of cable management, I'm not sure what they meant by "more advanced cable management" but I've never seen a mid-tower with more ways to route cables. The finish is also great, but the glossy paint shows prints fairly easily, but they provide a microfiber cloth to clean with.

The I/O port on the top of the front has the most features of any case I've seen, and it's built rock solid. To think I paid $100 a few years back for an Antec 900, and I can get all this for $110 blows me away.

Please let me know any questions you have on it, but I'd absolutely recommend it! Send me a PM if you want a link, same for you Boomer, and I can post pics as well if posting the review isn't allowed.

Since the OP asked for information about the cases, I doubt anyone would have any problems with your post...or with you posting pics. Please do so.

I'm not personally interested in the case since I just built a new PC with a CoolerMaster HAF 932, but I'm sure there are others out there who might be looking for info on new cases.

No need. You already have a link in your sig going to your review site. The review is on the front page, so no missing it.

Thanks for clearing that up, my sig didn't even occur to me.

Can someone help me out with embedding pics into a post without a link to an image hosting site, that's something I've struggled to figure out.

You have to have the pics on some sort of site...not just your PC.

Photobucket and others are free...
