Revainrating 1 out of 5

Built like a tank, big like a tank, weighs like a tank!

Nice case! Plenty of room for 3.5" or 2.5" drives, a large open display area to show off your components, and all the unsightly cables are tucked away along with the power supply in the back. Plenty of ventilation with vents on 4 of the 6 sides and the remaining 2 sides are obviously glass cases. This means that 80% of the area is dedicated to the presentation of your products. There will be a mess with the cables (behind the middle sheet metal you see in one of my photos, which also serves as a 2.5" drive bracket). You may prefer the space for the cable over the functionality of the drive tray. Likewise, you can remove the extra drive bays at the front of the case to replace them with fans (in my photos you can see three fans arranged in a vertical column). But it mostly depends on how you use them, not the fault of the case. If you prioritize practicality over display aesthetics, be sure to wiggle the cables back and forth instead of slapping them from the back. What's wrong with the case is the significant space between the fan mounting area on the side (the area you take out). metal plates that also serve as drive mounts) and downwards, allowing airflow from the fan to flow back into the case and not through the included anti-dust grills. I don't know why the floor has an inexplicable 1cm height above the grate/dust sieve. Because of this, I didn't bother putting the fans on the bottom, although the same can be said for the three vertical fans. Likewise, the grilles near the hot-swap hard drive bays and particularly the PCI-e rack area on the back have a lot to offer in terms of airflow/dust management. Do you have dust covers in 4 main areas but the 5th and most important area next to the motherboard is gaping? what happened to it It doesn't help that the PCI-e rack covers are shaking like bells.

Pros
  • also understandable for the old
Cons
  • So-so
