Review on MSI MPG SEKIRA 100R Premium Mid-Tower Gaming PC Case: Tempered Glass Side Panel, Liquid Cooling Support up to 360mm Radiator, Two-Tone Design by Patrick Johnson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice, solid case, poor slot for the power supply

Worthy design and very beautiful. The side panel mount is unique yet easy to use. A great looking and above all functional ATX case. Deducting 2 stars for several reasons: 1) The mystical body lighting, while nice, has issues. This MSI case in combination with the MSI MPG Z490 Gaming Edge WIFI motherboard does not allow software control (via MSI Dragon Center) of pre-installed MSI RGB controllers and MSI RGB fans. The only way to control the pre-installed RGB fans is with a button on the top/front of the case. Therefore, color synchronization with any other RGB components (RAM, GPU, mainboard, etc.) is not possible. Note. If you don't have another RBG the fans look great and that's not a problem. 2) Probably the biggest issue: Power The power slot is awfully small and not big enough to hold a standard ATX power supply. The dimensions given seem to be sufficient, provided that the cables do not come out the back of the power supply. Are you planning to either A) remove the 3.5 HDD cage (easy enough with 5 screws) or B) get an XFX power supply or other small form factor power supply. 3) Airflow with RGB fans pre-installed is pretty dismal, but that's to be expected. with a solid front panel with small side vents for air intake.
