&lt;h3 id="introduction"&gt;Introduction:&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I purchased an Antec Fusion Black case to replace my aging HTPC.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The case looks very nice, until you turn on the LCD display&amp;hellip;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 id="the-good"&gt;The Good:&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The case looks very nice.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The construction is solid.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h3 id="the-bad"&gt;The Bad:&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The two included case fans do not have speed monitoring wires, I had to&lt;br&gt;
purchase new fans.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For such an expensive case this is rather disappointing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;There are two fans on the side of the case, both set to extract hot air,&lt;br&gt;
but hard drives are located in an area with no direct ventilation.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There are ample ventilation holes around the drives, but it remains to be&lt;br&gt;
seen if the drives will overheat or not.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
