Noise
Subjectively, the A-Top 588 is fairly loud, especially considering it only contains one fan, that of the power supply. This was confirmed by our sound pressure meter, which registered 65dB from the front or back. Fortunately, no rattles were observed so the only noise will be from the system and CPU fans and the hard drive.Conclusion

A-Top has set out to capitalize on the translucent craze caused by the introduction of the iMac. Unfortunately, they applied the treatment to a mediocre case is worse than what we've come to expect from the likes of InWin, Enlight and the other big name case makers.
If you must have a translucent case, add the A-Top to your list as it is one of the few available. But if you also value the quality, noise, or cooling of your case, the A-Top quickly becomes a less appealing option.
