The accoutrements were very well thought-out, especially for those wanting to insert their water-cooling components. The USB, and fire-wire connections are easily accessible, and hand-screw placement is the most extensive I've ever seen;

Even the PC- speaker placement was well thought-out, improving the usual annoying high frequencies associated with hasty placement;

I often wonder why more case designs eschew top fan ventilation? While I've heard this can adversely affect air-pressure in case air-flow dynamics, I believe the effect is negligible, and closer examination of case flow dynamics has revealed top vents cool better. It's just common sense to include "ceiling" ventilation as heat rises. The amount of air-flowing from the top of the case is significant, and TTGI has spared no expense where fans are concerned, these are all stamped Super Flower. The LED mounted in the top window is a nice touch. In fact this case is the most attractive I've seen in brushed aluminium. Albeit a stock offering, there's nothing "stock" about this case, except the price-tag;

TTGI included ample documentation, instructions, and a parts list. Bags of extra parts were included, additional hand-screws, brass motherboard stand-offs, black coated screws for the HDD's etc. Cable-organizers with 3M adhesive, and plenty of assorted screws, even zip-ties were included as well;
