So in the land of Pre-Modded cases, what makes this Maxtop 7788 case any different from all the others you see listed on the web or at your local PC Store? Well for one as you will see later in the review is the time taken to mod this case. The blow/suck holes are cut perfectly and with out any dangerous edges.

Plus, knowing in the back of my mind that the last thing to ever go wrong with my PC is the cables gives me extra confidence in the reliability of my system. But just when you think that the rounded cable craze was over and the best cables have already been built, Antec comes along with a new cable that makes every other rounded cable obsolete. Antec calls their new cables "Cobra Cables" which fits very nicely due to the cables actually resembling the skin of a snake. Check it out!
