Review on Computer case Deepcool Matrexx 55 black by Stanislaw Stan Stras ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The quality exceeds all expectations, I recommend to buy.

I chose among buildings up to 3 thousand. For this amount, Matrexx 55 seemed to me one of the most interesting options. The case has a minimalistic and stylish appearance, excellent quality of materials processing, good capacity. Noted tempered glass front and side. Good ventilation - in the front of the case there are wide side gaps for air intake. After a small mATX case, I wanted to give more airflow to the components. Space for cable management behind the rear wall is plentiful, about the thickness of a thumb. I liked the very neat and concise LED strip on the front panel. However, I did not immediately figure out how to turn on the backlight (changing colors from a button on the case, powered by a molex). To connect, it is enough to close two connectors from one bundle of wires responsible for the backlight. In addition to the front glowing strip, you can connect an RGB strip to the case, which will be synchronized with the front lighting. Judging by the reviews of other buyers, there is a problem with the placement of fans. I managed to install six 140mm Id Cooling 14025k turntables. But with a couple of reservations: firstly, these are 140mm fans, but with 120mm mounts. Secondly, on the rear wall 140mm will not fit in width, so one screw is screwed into the bolt hole, and the second into the perforated grille - the fan is, as it were, at an angle. Regarding its own, a three-section radiator will also enter the front wall. Only a two-section one will stand on the upper wall, taking into account the holes for fastenings provided by the manufacturer and the perforated air blowing zone. However, theoretically, not without a , you can try to put a three-section radiator on top, provided that the same is not in front (the length of the entire internal space of the case is 40 cm, ordinary three-section radiators are 39.5 cm). For the price, I think the case is excellent. All the shortcomings mentioned are subjectively insignificant, since the case performs its main technical and aesthetic functions with a bang.

Pros
  • + quality of materials and processing; + tempered glass front and side; + high legs; + low cost; + very roomy; + stylish appearance; + considerable weight; + in practice, 140mm fans are also included; + rear 120mm fan can be adjusted in height; + soft pads for the side glass and rubber pads for glass mounting winglets; + no backlash of the power buttons, reboot, backlight control. However, this has a downside - more in the shortcomings;
Cons
  • - the power, reset, backlight change buttons are practically not tactilely distinguished on the case panel. At the same time, the backlight change button is located between power and reboot, so instead of changing the color of the backlight, it's easy to miss and restart the PC; - there are no vibration dampers on the skid for drives; - from below a simple non-retractable mesh filter for the power supply. For cleaning, you need to turn the case over. Given the weight of the assembly with massive components, it is extremely inconvenient; - in my copy, there is a narrow gap between the muzzle and the body of the body, through which light breaks through from the body; - not everyone will understand the scheme for switching on the front illumination of the case;
