I would definately reccomend this case to newbies such as I. Though my motherboard tray isn't removable. I switched over from a Cooler Master Stacker 830 SE, and the cooling is like 60% better for me. (mainly becuase I don't really know how to use the stackers full potential cus of my newbiness) I really like the lock and key feature thats great, for keeping peeps out of my system. Plus it was really easy to set up. The top and rear fan just snap and slide in.
