Interior
When you first remove the panels on the Sonata Elite you quickly realise that this case is not light by all accounts. You also notice how well formed the construction of this case is. The side panels are extremely thick and they even feature sound proofing material on the inside to further silence the noise coming from components inside.





Another thing you will pick up on pretty quickly is the strange looking 3.5" bay that sits just below the 5.25" optical bays. Although this is appears to look quite odd at first, in the next section you will come to see that this method of installing the 3.5" devices is a superb idea and something that I like very much.



The overall look and feel of the Elite is quite traditional and it doesn't vary too greatly from its predecessors. It comes equipped with a rear exhaust fan and a fan for fixing to the expansion area of the case, so that any heat from graphics cards can be quickly removed.
