Housing in top quality! CAN YOU DETECT AIRFLOW!?

Possibly the best case I've had. I have a window model. The black satin finish is beautiful, the airflow is amazing. The included cable management is second to none. With the muffler faceplate installed, the airflow is still better than the EVOLV X. I checked this with an anemometer. The filter's design is also an improvement over the evolv X. It has a nice low-power white LED around the power button. Thank goodness it's not blue! Also, it has a proper reset button instead of a useless RGB button. A small downside to this quiet case is the front fan mount. It has both rails for 120mm and 140mm fans. When using 140mm intake fans, the blades partially block excess metal on the 120mm mounting rails. This annoyed me when I installed the faster "quiet" Noctua fans. It sounded like a turboprop plane. The rotor blades so close to the metal guides cause turbulence that is even slightly audible with stock low-speed fans. I'm also sure this gets the airflow on point as well. Same goes for the Evolv X. My solution was to 3D print the fan shrouds, basically empty 25mm thick fan frames, to separate the fan blades from the front fan mounting rails. This fixed the problem and now my 3 front Noctua NF-A14s are pushing hurricane air at their max speed which I set at 1000rpm. At 550 rpm idling, this combination is silent but still moves a lot of air. Standoffs are critical unless a heatsink is being used to separate the front fan blades from the front of the case. Interestingly, they didn't keep the design of the older Enthoos, which didn't have as much metal on the front intake fan blades. My 2080ti and AIRCOOLED 3950x (noctua d15) work like cucumbers in this case. In general, I'm excited. with your company. This is a builder's dream!
