Looks good... Is it??

Eh, depends on your taste of cases. It's a bit too flashy for me. Also looks like a rebadged Aspire case, which aren't known for their quality.
 
meh I know... but its cheap... I'm basically shopping round trying to get the best prices, and realised I might be able to save some on a cheaper case?...

EDIT: and also, them LCD's look like they'd be useful if they read the temperature accurately... but why 3??
 
The gauges are for temperature, fan speed, and voltage I think. Trust me, though, if you get that case, you're going to regret it in about 4 months. I have my Raidmax Aztec...

and at first I was like "dude this is the best looking thing EVER! Who needs 'high quality' stuff?" In a while, you'll want simplicity with simple looks to highlight your components instead and features that are actually helpful (like cable routing holes).

If I were you, I'd get one of these: (I'm NewEgg linking these, but you'll be able to find them in UK if that's where you are)

Don't get the case. It's rubbish. My friend back home had one when he built his 939 system back when the company name was Aspire. I had a similar full tower case when the company then changed it's name to Apevia. Now this?? Again, rubbish.
 
get something like the CM Storm Scout, awesome case! Sleek, yet simple, and sturdy, roomy, great tooless design, love everything about this case!!
 
Ok... they look sweet :)

I was looking at the Antec 200... but that coolermaster looks good... £27 and it sounds good from what you say :)

so thanks :)

That case is anything but sleek and simple! :P A case like the Antec p182/p183 is sleek. The lights, side window, and gigantic handle make the Scout stick out like a sore thumb.
 
^ Hey, compared to some of those Raidmax cases, the Scout might as well be James Bond.

I agree though...when I think of "sleek", I think of brands like Lian Li, Zalman, and Silverstone. The Scout is an awesome looking case, though.

Well, yes. The Raidmax cases are on the "tacky as hell" level. :P

The Antec 200 is great. CM are aswell, but I'd go for the 200 if you are after a cheap case, can't really beat them for what they have for the price

=EDIT=

I should point out there is near no cable management in that case. That will mean you have to have your wires all routed in the main part of your case, making it harder to work in once your power supply is there annd reducing airflow greatly, so affecting temps
