Good case, bad case??

Whtas trhis case like??
i found it and it seems reasonable whast the verdict? i couldnt find it on Toms.

"Chieftech Scorpio TX-10BLD Blue (CA-002-CT)
Chieftech have quickly earned themselves a reputation for quality and innovation - as soon as we saw this case we could see why. The entire case is built to the very highest standards using high quality materials to create an incredibly strong case that looks as good as many more expensive case - this is certainly a heavyweight.

Featuring :
» 80mm blow hole on side panel with the very highest quality finish
» 5.25" drive bay door - vented for cooling
» Lockable side door with quick release catch
» 3.5" bays featuring quick release catch for easy manipulation
» 4 x 80mm fan holes with easy to fit fan brackets
» heavy duty 340W Antec PSU - approved by AMD and Intel
» Drive bay sliders conveniently stored at base of case
» Easy to remove drive bay covers
» 4 x 5.25" bays
» 6 x 3.5" bays (2 visible)
» keylock on front panel

For a closer look see inside the case.

PSU Output :
+5v = 30A +12V = 15A
+3.3V = 28A -5V = 0.5A
-12V = 1A + 5VSB = 2A
With 6 large connectors and 2 small"

These are nice cases. They look and function a lot like the comparable Antec Cases. Couples with an Antec PSU, this makes it a very nice case. I like that they have removeable hard drive cages, so installation of and hard drives or hard drive fans is really easy. They also use drive rails, so installing and removing 5 1/2" drives is simple, too. Nice case, and excellent PSU, imo.

Hi Padaxus,

That Chieftec is very similar to the Antec Performance Plus 1060 case (different face plate). I think you'll be very happy with it.
