So why did I take it? For the last couple of years, I have already grown tired of fancy lamps, garlands and other unnecessary things. Decided to go quiet. Before that, I had a Zalman Z9 Neo Plus, inside I had an i7-8700k on a two-section water Deepcool Captain 240X, an MSI 3070 card on 3 turntables. In general, I had everything set in the manual and the sound was minimal, exactly until the card was connected. When loaded in a closed case, the card went to 1600rpm and kept strictly 70 degrees. I decided that the cheapest way to try to put it out was to buy a more ventilated case. Well, I found out about this miracle, I saw enough reviews, read a review on overclockers, where they wrote that there is practically no difference when the card is on an open stand and in this case. In general, I was seduced and bought. In a closed H710i with anthers, the card really didn't get hotter than it was in Zalman, the same 70 degrees, with one small exception. The turntables started running at 1900rpm to keep the same temperatures. Sound, as you probably already guessed - only increased. The blowing is rather weak, for the case, for 12 thousand. If you remove the muzzle, remove the boot, then the card drops the speed to 1400-1500rpm and keeps 66-67 degrees. It's cool, but did I pay for it? To look at the removed muzzle of the case for 12 thousand? And under this muzzle, I’ll tell you, the designers didn’t try hard, there’s little beauty there. In general, I came to the conclusion that if I really want silence, I need to fork out for custom for all elements, including the water block on the map. Let's recap. I would give this case 2, stupidly for the price / quality, there is nothing that would significantly advantageously distinguish it from cases for 5k in it. But I decided not to spoil the rating much and put 4. If you want to pay for the image and, indeed, not a bad view - take it, you won't regret it. If you are interested in functionality, then in this matter the price of this case is 4-5 thousand, in the end my Zalman for 5k even outperforms it in terms of temperatures.
