The Apevia X-Telstar ends up being a pretty nice case. It is a little more expensive-looking than the previous Apevia/Aspire cases I've had. I really like the front of the case, both the colors and the 3D effect. The lit logo is a nice touch.

The fan controller and LCD display are particularly nice. The earlier cases I had only had case temp, which is pretty useless to me. The shape of the side window and the UV reactive hardware are other cool additions to the case. The three 120mm fans (you have to buy the third one) lend enough cooling for most applications.

At $79.99USD, the X-Telstar would not only make a nice case for a first-time builder, but is interesting enough for someone that's been around awhile.

Pros:
Nice lower priced case
Good looks
Cool features not often found on a case at that price

Cons:

None to speak of

The Apevia X-Telstar earns the OCIA.net Seal of Approval.
