The Switch 810 is a winner from start to finish although I'm not completely sold on the looks. The mesh and soft touch accents look great alongside the high gloss finish, but the amount of plastic tends to give it a bit of a cheap look, but it's...

After looking over this case, installing a system in it and using for about 3 weeks now this has to be one of the most thought-out cases that I have seen in a while. If you go over each section of the case NZXT has done something to make it better or...
