NZXT Continues to Expand Budget Enclosure Line with Gamma Mid Tower

NZXT has been on a budget rampage lately and continues to add to its lineup of enclosures priced in $50 territory. The latest low-priced mid-tower to come off the assembly line is the company's just announced Gamma chassis, and it too will sell for around half a C-note.
Despite the low price tag, NZXT says it placed a "premium on effective airflow," which includes slots for 6 case fans, dedicated VGA/CPU cooling, and a front panel design the company claims allows for extra air to be sucked in. It also includes a few amenities often reserved for higher priced cases, including water-cooling holes, mounting holes for a dual-radiator at the top, and an all-black interior.
"There is no other chassis on the market that offers this kind of feature set for around $50," said Johnny Hou, Chief Designer at NZXT. "For enthusiasts looking to shave some money off their build, Gamma will provide everything you need for a high performance system at a remarkably low price."
Hou's singing a familiar tune that we've heard from the company before, and don't mind hearing again.

Who in their right minds would put front ports in the MIDDLE of a case front? The wires are going to be laying around all over the ground as well as any devices. Best is on top with a shelf to hold the stuff, esp with micro USB cell phone charging coming up.

The NZXT beta looks considerably better (IMHO) and is only $29 after $10 rebate. I bought it for a build for my sons friend. It was suprisingly quite. Awesome case for the price. I see they offer an evo version (whatever that is) for $60

It would probably be decent if they just fix the ugly front. Just make it flat.

Well, there's no other chassis on the market that looks uglier for $50, not even the Antec 200.
