Review on πŸ–₯️ Cougar Panzer EVO RGB Black Full Tower Gaming Case with Remote Control and RGB LED Lighting by Ben Barrington

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great case! See update

The case looks great, it arrived on time and the packaging was in good condition. I will say the rear steering wheel is bent but I'm not deducting a star for that as I removed the steering wheel. The materials used make a solid impression and I could not find any damage to them. Overall this is a really good tower, although I did use some struts on the front screen (in front of the three pre-installed 120mm fans) to be able to draw in more airflow. UPDATE: So I came back to add a few things. Since I modified the case, I also have to mention a few disadvantages that I didn't mention before: 1) In this case, there is indeed a problem with the installation of some mobile ATX devices due to the rear fan. I bought a gigabyte aorus z390 ultra, and the heatsink on the upper right corner of this cellphone hits the rear fan, so you can't install the cellphone. To fix this I simply removed the rear fan and left it off. I can see this will be an issue for some as they will complain about the thermal cooling, but once I have my computer on I remove the main glass panel and reveal the innards. and I'm no computer expert here, but when I take that glass panel off, everything inside is pretty cool, just feels a little warm (I wear gloves when I touch any of the parts), so this method helped ME a lot with thermals . When I turn off the computer, I simply replace the glass panel to prevent dust from getting inside. Now I know a lot of people will say that removing the glass pane affects thermal performance, but after a few months parts of my computer are still working great even under load and I've had no overheating issues. This fix worked for me too, but I'm not sure if other experiences will be different. I also don't want to say that you don't need mobile device holders for this case, since the indentations inside the case serve as stands. You just have to make sure the device is centered on it. I'll be back with another update if I notice or stumble upon anything. Hope this helps, and again, I'm not a PC expert, just sharing my personal experience with this case after almost 3 months of use. Overall, this is still a great case, but I'm deducting a star because I had to remove the rear fan. It's not a problem for me, but I can imagine how it would be for some.
