i have used circle ..... they are good VFM ..
they might not be so heard about brand as cooler master...
but they provide really good ventilation..u get extra slots for fans and its one of the cabinet 512 has 4 front usb ports ..
i m really satisfied with circle...
it lesser know brand hence people are not fully aware of it ...as people tend to buy branded things only

have used circle cabinets in 4-5 systems. very decent built and IMO the psu is far more superior than iBall PSU's. I know a system running - 8600GT + 4 HDD's + E6XXX setup on 400W :|
and by superior built i mean : you dont get bloody
fingers and cuts and bruises on the hand as compared to the iball types (....seems fixed in the new iball cabinets though but they are flimsy!)

yea ...have heard of them a few times, and as much as i have heard, they have pretty good build quailty for their price !!!

I am using Circle Cabinet since2.5yrs.
I can't really comment & compare it with CM Elite, as I personally haven't seen CM Elite. But from what I see from pics, I can bet that CM Elite is much better.
One thing to say......it can take any mod you through at it. I have interest in modding stuffs & have almost abused my cabby over the years and it has taken it all. I am happy with my cabby. My cabby costed me 1.6k, but CM Elite at ~2.1k will be better choice IMO.
Built quality: Built quality is better than iBall and Zebronics(haven't seen pro series of Zebby)(can say equal to high end iBall & Zebby cabby's) cabby.
What matters more is design for me. Most Zebronnics and iBall(read most) have motherboard mount on side panel & that side cannot be removed:|. You don't get enough space to route cables and cabinet is not modding friendly.(Zebby Antibioticts, iBall WindowsX,,etc have different tray to mount mobo than side panel, but again those cabby's cost ~2k and you CM Elite in that).
So, I can say that Circle cabby's are as good as iBall & Zebby high end(high end- cabby's costing ~2k
). I know Zebby & iBall cabinets which are better than mine but come at more price in which you can buy CM Elite. Also, compared to VIP cabby in it's price range, Circle is better. They a VFM cabby, but adding some 400buckd you can get CM Elite.
PSU: can't comment, as I bought cabby without PSU.
