MSI MPG Series SEKIRA 500P, Premium Mid-Tower Gaming PC Case: Tool Less Tempered Glass Side Panel, 120mm Fans, Modular 360mm Radiator Bracket, Vertical Graphics Card Support

So it looks like you cant install a blu-ray drive. Thats insane. I havent even used the case yet but now Im going to have to return it because I dont want to have to buy an external blu-ray burner. If Im wrong please tell me how but I dont see how you can have an internal blu-ray drive hooked up to this case. Everything else about it looks nice. Edit: I upgraded the rating to 2 stars because Im keeping the case and buying the burner. There are no other cases that have what I want thats the same price as this one, I would have to spend 50 more dollars so I might as well keep the case and buy the burner.

Definitely worth it Im building a PC for a friend it feels like good quality and its super expensive

Great case with great wire management options already installed. Great first time builders case.

The Case arrived slower than date listed. Case arrived with damaged fan plug. Then I requested a replacement and never received it. Ordering a different case.

Case is made with quality materials did have to change top fans to exhaust other than that awesome case

The MPG SEKIRA 100R is another product from MSI that approve. The quality of the case feels and handle well when assembly your parts. LED fans are great feature MSI included with this case. There is plenty of room for future upgrades. The price of the case, for the quality you get on this case is right where it should be. The only thing I did not like is the look of the HUB very dinky and ugly. It works fine but just needed more of finished aesthetic look to go with the rest of the design, I will continue my loyalty to MSI products.

If theyd make front air intake panel just a half inch thicker.

This is a very nice case! RGB hub was extremely useful, facilitated cable management. A few more attachment sites for cable ties would be useful. Will buy again!

First Impressions - I havent had a chance to build up my PC in it yet because I literally just received this 12 hours ago and just got home from work; so this is merely my first impressions. The box arrived in pristine shape from USPS, and my face literally lit up like a happy child for maybe 20 seconds - because it looked so nice taking it out of the box! But then I noticed something odd on the top vent - there is a sizable dent on it as seen in my 1st picture ! If it wasnt for the dent, I probably wouldve given it a 10/10 for aesthetics - but the dent from the factory (more on that later) is unacceptable for a case with a premium MSRP. Even on MSIs website, they boast about the fine craftsmanship of the Sekira series. The box was in pristine shape, and the dent is actually pushed outwards from within the case - meaning it got there from the factory floor. You would think they would have atleast 1 person doing a 3 second visual quality-control before it gets boxed and shipped to discerning customers (discerning because I adamantly believe people spending $100+ just on a PC case are probably more of the discerning type who wants quality, an eye-pleasing case, and craftsmanship). Actions - I probably spent close to an hour trying to iron-out the dent with my thumb and palms and it is still apparent - it just flexes back. Around 3pm Central Time, for the life of me, I couldnt find a way to send a note/inquiry to customer service. The Chat function also didnt work - a message saying their chat functionality is temporarily down! Its Fri tomorrow and I was anxious to start building my PC over the weekend; but I guess Im going to wait it out another ~3 days to see if I can get MSI to send me a replacement top panel. If the dent still bothers me on Mon, Ill probably just initiate a returns process with Amazon; and go to my local Best Buy to pickup a Corsair 4000D case (as they have it readily available....since I dont want my project further delayed). Overall Materials Used - I had never seen a desktop case that looked and felt so premium! Ive stopped by Micro Center a few times to look at over 40 cases in person - and 90% of them had this cheap vibe to it (e.g. felt super light, very thin paint, wobbled when you put slight pressure on it, etc). I ordered a Zalman S2 TG case for $50 in the past and was disappointed - which is why I decided to get this MSI case, My Zalman S2 for instance, feels super cheap - the metal side panel flops like a floppy disk when taken out! The side panel on this MSI is super rigid as a rock! The paint job also doesnt look chintzy like the Zalman - the paint on this Sekira has this very nice satin finish - very evenly painted and feels thick. The brushed metal is also super nice - especially the area around the buttons and ports. Other thoughts - I guess I wasnt surprised by the lack of quality control. Before deciding to build another PC, I was actually eyeing a prebuilt gaming PC at Best Buy - the MSI Aegis ZS because the sale price at the time was very enticing since its so hard to buy a graphics card nowadays. But the numerous negative reviews in which people said MSI forgot to put a power switch on the unit made me not buy it. I thought perhaps it was just user error, but now Im confident MSI does indeed issues with quality control.

Case itself looks good and clean, however both fans stopped working within 2 days.
