DIYPC HTPC Cube BK Unboxing

This is my unboxing of an mitx case, the HTPC Cube from DIYPC.  A friend and I were looking for a small case to build out 'Lan PCs' based on the Intel G3258 and he stumbled on this mitx full aluminum case for $35.  It look nice, built quality is not horrible but is not the best either BUT it looks nice.  He made his build on it and I... 'Totally luved et'...

 

Anyways, here it is...

This is my first unboxing video and I am going to follow it up with a build and review video(s).

 

Thanks for checking it out, I have other videos of gameplay of WoW, LoL and H1Z1 (NSFW'ish) if any would like to check them out.

using two slim 120mm fans would you think it is possible to fit a 240mm rad up top?

It is the same case, just no window on the DIYPC model and the feet are different.  and $20 cheaper.  I bought it when it was $35.  It is a great case, it does not feel cheap, it is sturdy, good looking and fits a lot of good hardware if you pick the right PSU and by right I mean something modular or even better, semi modular since the 24 pin cable can be bent easier when it semi and doesn't as much vertical space when it is modular.
