Exactly as promised by the manufacturer, high quality.

Installing long video cards is possible, but if the front fan is moved higher, at the cost of losing air intake efficiency.
The front panel is snap-on and can be removed without undue force. For periodic maintenance, they should be enough.
Part of the power supply wire can be placed in place of the HDD cage if it is removed.
Archaic indication of disk activity is useless for SSD.
﻿

Pros

Compactness. Strict appearance. Noise isolation on the side walls and front panel, under the table it is inaudible at all. Medium thickness metal. Fixtures are provided for normal cable management. Dust filters at the entrances. Possibility of installation of the power supply both on an air intake both from below, and from the case. Dimensions allow you to install both m-atx and atx boards. Case fans are silent at 75 percent of maximum speed. The bracket for placing the SSD is located on the back of the mat. boards in the socket area. It does not affect their temperature.

Cons

The side covers are heavy, but when heated, they have a strong play in the center. Most likely they did not provide for the expansion of the metal. Excessive brightness of the LED on the front panel is corrected with two pieces of white electrical tape. The power button on tactile sensations does not inspire reliability. There are no markings on the body for screwing the racks under the mat. boards of different form factors.
