Easy, Breezy, Beautiful, VIVO..
I am giving this case 5 stars. Although I considered giving it four, I find this case to be perfect for a beginner PC builder such as myself and I want the rating to be higher. If you are a seasonsed PC builder buy a case with more cable management options, though micro atx cases are typically a bit tricky anyways.OK,Now on to the meat of my review of the vivo micro atx case. I purchased this case with my girlfriend for her first gaming rig! I play world of Warcraft and she decided to sit down and make a character on my rig one day... well 2 weeks later and all the parts for her new build (chosen with help from me) had arived at my door step). I found this case to be extremly easy to build with. I had only built a couple pcs before working on my girlfriends rig and I have to say this case was a pleasure to build with.Pros:-Aesthetics pleasing design.-The included 120mm fans are quite nice (blue leds) although I should note that they use a molex connection rather than a 4 pin.-Enough room for cable magament with the decently sized bulge on the back (it's not the size it's how you use it)..... ;).. ahem... ummm..-the majority of the mother board standoffs were already installed! (Don't make the same mistake I did and forget to put the last two in as my girlfriends new PC is missing two standoffs)-plenty of room for most consumer grade gpus (though always be sure to measure twice but once)Cons:-the top air filter is a bit flimsy. I also find the holes on the filter to be just a bit to small as when the filter is removed the two 120mm fans that we installed in the top of the case are able to circulate more air.- there are some sharp edges inside of the case. This is a problem that i haven encountered with other cheap cases in the past. Just be sure to be gentle when digging around in there.-other than those two minor issues I couldn't really find anything wrong with this product.This is a great case! This is one of the best budget micro atx cases on Amazon. And this case does not look budget. <3 happy pixel moving button pressing everyone.

My first build! Worked out well!
I spent awhile looking at multiple cases and decided on this one as it fit my budget range and it seemed like I could get a lot out of it. Includes two fans which are very quiet and the LEDs are a cool touch (no pun intended). Case feels pretty solid. Fit my Asus MATX motherboard and even included the extta standoffs needed. Only gripe about this case was closing the side panel for the wire organization side. It took awhile to get all the cabling into place as theres not much room at all for the cables. After much zip tying...cursing...and determination back panel closed firmly without resistance. Had enough room for my Radeon RX570 graphics card. Added 1 extra fan for exhaust. Also fit my Asus pcie wifi add on. All in all I really like it! Maybe add more space next time for wire organzation but hey for the budget I was on I didn't mind having to spend more time fidgeting with that. FYI: LED fans only light up blue in case you were wondering.

This is nice little case at a bargin price!
I love this little compact micro-ATX case. It works well for my living room PC. Not to flashy, but the blue front fan LEDs and side window are a nice touch. It feels well put together and everything fit nicely. Plenty of room for the RX570 graphics card, oversized CPU cooler, 2 HDDs, and 2 SSDs. Not a ton of room for cable management, but I was able to make it work. The front fans run quiet and cool, but you should add to add one 120mm fan at the back for rear exhaust. I have plenty of fans laying around, so that was not an issue. I also installed an Apevia ATX-BT550 Beast 550W power supply because it has a blue LED that matches the front fans.I would recommend this case to anyone with a micro-ATX board that is not building an overpowered gaming rig, and doesn't need anything too flashy.My build:AMD FX-8350 black editionCryorig M9a Mini Tower Heatsink Cooler for AMD CPUsASUS M5A78L-M Plus/USB3 DDR3 HDMI DVI USB 3.0 760G MicroATX MotherboardApevia ATX-BT550 Beast 550W power supplyAddlink S20 3D NAND SSD 512GBAData 120GB SSD2x 750GB Western Digital HDDsMSI Radeon RX 570 ARMOR 4G OC

Best for the price
It's a great, sleek, and nice looking case (two LED fans made for a nice bonus!) for ultra cheap, whats not to like? Quite roomy, not too gamery but not too utilitarian - just wish it came in regular ATX, as me being the fool that I am managed to buy a micro ATX case for an ATX build, despite it clearly saying micro. If I did need a micro ATX case, this'd probably be my first choice
