Aplus Blockbuster Storm – Impressions
Aplus is a familiar name here at Tom’s Hardware as their products have already been used in several of our projects. In 
this new version, called Blockbuster Storm, the case comes equipped with a huge system fan taking up almost the entire top of the unit. Thanks to its size, this fan can spin at very low speeds while still offering good airflow. Additionally, its speed can also be adjusted manually. Warm air is expelled out the back of the case by a 120 mm fan. While other cases such as the XClio Twin Engine have the 250 mm fan mounted on the side or the front, Aplus’ design puts it right on top of the case. The drawback – you lose the “storage space” on top of your PC :).
Large windows are inset on both sides of the case, allowing you to admire your hardware even with the case closed. Case modders will appreciate this, since it brings out accessories, decorations and interior lighting to full effect. The front sports a small display that monitors the temperature inside the case. The appropriate sensor can be positioned anywhere inside the case.

reading that makes me pleased i went for an Antec NSX 1300. more compact, good cooling, better looks, very solidly built - its down side is the nonstandard psu and lack of front facing 3.5" bay for a card reader but i'd reccommend it over any of the reviewed cases!
I will be building a micro-atx based box soon Lian-Li v300 for the same price as these looks like much better value
