iStar D Storm D-200-PFS Front Mount ATX Power Supply 2U Rackmount Server Chassis (Black)

I chose this case because I wanted full sized GFX card in a 2U case. I read the reviews and I knew I needed to buy my own separate riser cable. I bought from Newegg as I couldn't find one like this on amazon:Athena Power CABLE-PCIE16A1-R5V2 Focus 1U/2U Chassis, 50mm Straight PCI-E x16, PCIe 3.0 High Quality Flexible EMI Shielded Ribbon 90-Degree Right Angle Riser Cable, Wide Range Vertical Mounting GPU Support - OEM.I upgrade the two stock case fans 80mm to noctua and used Noctua NH-L9x65, Premium Low-Profile CPU Cooler - I havent had it long enough to give you a story about thermals (ignore the temperature values in photo - they are not representative of the computer temps)I read in other reviews that there was no ventilation for the power supply so I made my own holes.The fit for my GFX card and PS were really too close for comfort but i will call them "snug" - if your wondering: EVGA GTX 980ti & EVGA 650w gold semimodular powersupply (full ATX). Front side need some modification (cut the front grille) for extra room for 90 AC cord of power supplymy mobo is mATX but looks like there is standoff provisions for full ATX. 5.25 Optical drive and 3.5" USB & HDMI passthrough were purchased separately and installed in front bays

This is a great case for the money, and has no trouble fitting most standard components. Some notable exceptions being the power supply and the full height PCIe cards.You will need a PCIe riser board (not included), or PCIe extension cables to mount your cards in this case, but this is unavoidable for full height cards in a 2U case.The power supply will not be able to vent out the top or bottom of the case, so you might want to try to find a small form factor power supply, or do what I did. Use a typical ATX power supply and accept the fact that the power supply fan will be blocked. If you are running mid range components or no GPU, this shouldn't be a problem because the power supply will be generating minimal heat.If I were to change one thing, I would add some more fans in the front left panel in front of where the power supply sits, and require a small form-factor power supply (remove mounting bracket for ATX) to allow better air flow to the rear of the case.

Ok, so they say front mount power supply, but it is a forward mounted supply, the power entry point is still the rear of the case. Also, just to be clear, there is no supply included with this case. Finally, note that you need a supply that does not rely on a large fan on the broad side of the supply, as that will be blocked by the sheet metal cover.That's all the negatives, and the reason for the two star demotion.not shown in the pictures is that the three PCI(e) expansion ports are at a right angle to the board (as is the case on nearly all 2U cases). The build quality is fine, I already own an iStar 4U case and I love it. This unit seems to be decent build quality for the money, so long as you can deal with the limitations imposed by 2U. Good airflow possibilities, but you need to block the vent near the rear exhaust fan by the power connector so that air is not drawn in from the side and out the back, but rather across the optionally installed HDDs and PSU.Bang for the buck, this is a good case, just needs a better description and more product pictures.

WYSIWYG. Zero literature to go with this case, but definitely a straight forward build. Was able to cram in a full size PSU with a Titan V, but I use the word cram literally. Cable management is basically non existent.

Upon delivery, the packet of fasteners and ties was missing.
