I do never plug the monitor into the power supply of the case, I don't want to spend a lot of money in a new Asus A7V and the micro if it's not going to run perfect. The only bug that I found is the little space between the 5.25 bays and the power supply, if you use all of them it can get a little hard to plug and unplug the cables. Not small by any means, but not the size of a full tower.
Space is pretty good.
Hidden drive bay ontop is nice and the case is very stable. It is fairly quiet to me, doesn't make much noise at night. I liek the abilty to lock the back of it up and the little keylock on teh front is good to keep nosey hands off of power and acess to cd-rom. That front panel cover is very stylish. A little plastic panel allows me to see see the HD, Power and OverHeat lights.
