Installation:
Installation in a case of this size went without a hitch. There were no unexpected problems or hardware that wouldn't fit. A larger case such as this makes installation extremely easy.

Testing:
When it comes to PC cases, the only test I can run after talking about their visuals for so long is to take a look at the included cooling system. On the Maelstrom that would include the 22cm door fan and the three internal 120mm fans. Since all the included fans have a low-RPM design, these four fans were actually a little quieter than I would have expected - especially the large door fan! All fans seemed to operate in a fairly pleasing frequency range, although the door fan overpowered the internal fans. Of course if you're running these four or more fans then you will likely have a fan controller to further tweak cooling noise levels as needed.
