    Normal, stylish case. Since it has a relatively weak system, I don’t make any special claims to it. The main thing is to look good. I think in the future I will make holes on the sides in the front cover and close them from the inside with an anti-dust grille in order to somehow improve cooling

    Pros
    • 1. Soundly made, does not bend from pressure. 2. Tempered glass, not acrylic. 3. Has multi-colored plugs, which I liked. 4. Curved cover for cable management.
    Cons
    • 1. Poor cooling. The air is drawn in only through a small hole at the bottom and "hits" the disc rack. It’s frankly hot at the top and only a small part of the air reaches there (just open the lid and put your hand. In idle time with the E5 2620v3 zeon it’s 45 degrees. A simple gt640 is about 43. And just recently I put one 120mm screw on the bottom in front. 2. Marky. The front panel picks up any touch of skin, and if you wipe it with microfiber with screen liquid, tiny scratches remain. 3. It's hard to push the cables from the power supply. You can move the disc rack, but then the air flow will be even worse. 4. We'll have to rubber bands for the hard drive, because vibrations go throughout the case.

    All is well, liked the product, didn't buy it for nothing.

    Some pros: Very beautiful body, designed for lighting. Replaceable plastic front panel covers. Tired of the color - you can change Cons below: The power supply is open. The hard drive basket is inconvenient and looks very simple. Virtually no space to hide wires.

    An ideal product for any type of consumer.

    I have been looking for a case for a long time, where the vidyuha will fit, but at the same time the case itself will fit into a suitcase This little brother did it all.

    Pros
    • - Design - Transparent panel - Assembly - Equipment - Appearance - Compactness - Cable management - Block for HDDs
    Cons
    • Lack of backlighting out of the box (this is a nitpick, but imagine how fat it would be)

    The quality was generally satisfied, there were minor shortcomings.

    I assembled it in the R5 1600 + RX 580 case. The appearance is very presentable, it looks expensive, it is made with high quality. At idle, temperatures are 35-40, but it’s worth starting to play - you can safely fry fried eggs on the system unit. If you are assembling a simpler configuration, with a cold video card or without it at all, then the case, in principle, will suit you. If something is more or less serious, then I highly do not recommend it because of the very poor air circulation…

    Pros
    • +Tempered glass + No gaps, nothing backlash, everything is done with high quality + Removable rear end caps + Three colors in one to choose from - an unusually cool solution + Dust filters at all air intake points, on the power supply it can even be conveniently removed
    Cons
    • -Disgusting cable management, ran a 24-pin motherboard power cable from behind, the lid barely closed with a creak -Very poor paint quality. Cost a little touch with a screwdriver to the metal, so immediately the paint disappears and it is scratched. Accidentally while collecting so left a few scratches. -There is no power supply shroud, and there is almost no space at the back for cables, as a result, there is nowhere to put the wires from the PSU, only if you put them next to the hard drive bay. So to buy only a modular power supply for this case, I took the usual one with a fool, I regretted it a hundred times. -Terrible cooling, although there are places for two 120s in front, there is no sense from them. And all because the ventilation holes are only in the front top (VERY SMALL HOLE) and bottom (already bigger, but it still doesn’t help much). -And the front cover is not made of tempered glass, but ordinary acrylic, as I understand it. -Hard drives are attached directly to the case. Vibrations from hard all over the computer, there are no sleds or gaskets. -How could you think of making 1 USB 3.0 port and 1 2.0 port? This is just an ingenious solution - only two ports, and two wires, one of which is greasy and almost does not bend. (Why didn’t they just make two USB 3.0? You can hang two ports on one wire, well, it’s just as easy!)

    Very nice MATX case!

    Very good case! - The sidebar is blacked out so you can't see it at night if you don't have LEDs. - The side panel is a little easy to scratch. - No space problems in the case. the main part of the body - airflow is good! Comes with dust filters. - Comes with a dust filter for the power supply. - Looks very elegant and modern. - The front panel is transparent but tinted, you can insert LED fans and they will peek through it and look amazing! - The feet are rubberized and spaced 0.75 inches from

    Pros
    • Ideal for outdoor activities
    Cons
    • Some difficulties

    His. All right with computer components

    Let's start with the good: Very spacious, easy to handle Lots of screws, stands and even cable ties (it's just thoughtful) Super light and the acrylic panel looks nice Not so good : - The airflow could definitely be better. Better trust me and the Dremel will solve this problem - cable management, while doable, is still ugly. (Is any of this on me? But I've tried my best to make it look good.) - Not fussy in the slightest, but my 4-pin mobo power cable literally won't go through the intended…

    Pros
    • Easy installation
    Cons
    • Some little things

    Good case at a great price

    I built a new system with this case and am delighted with the results. I5-9600K with MSI Gaming Edge AC motherboard. It comes with a traditional fan on the back. I added 3 powerful cool RF120 RGB fans on the front. The steel body makes a solid impression. I like the detachable mesh front panel. I also really like the power supply cover. It was easy to keep most of the cables behind the motherboard. Lots of holes to bring them forward if needed. The only downside is that my box is missing…

    Pros
    • Excellent design
    Cons
    • Could have chosen a newer model

    Basically perfect - computers and accessories

    Great case. Has all the space I need for a decent sized CPU cooler, multiple drives, all the fans I could possibly need, and a decent sized GPU. It might not fit a really big GPU, but it's not the biggest case, so I don't expect anything else. I have an RTX 2060 and there is still room for a larger GPU. The only issue I had with this case is the cable management. The solid side panel (behind the motherboard) doesn't give you as much room as you'd like for cable management, but it works, and I'm

    Does anyone have a good case anymore?

    This does not only apply to this cooler body. Switches broke in my 20 year old aluminum CM case and I tried to install a new power switch and all that happened was the fans came on for a few seconds and then stopped completely. I gave the Antec case a try with all the hype and how expandable it is. . NOT CORRECT! He was unable to keep all of the promised discs. I was cut with a sharp edge. The kanji instruction book was worthless (CM is no better), and worst of all, there was no way to turn off

    Pros
    • Lasting test results
    Cons
    • Expensive

    The case arrived damaged but here is a preview

    Firstly this case is so fragile that a slight dent in the packaging left a noticeable dent in the case which bent the fan mounts behind the front panel. I'm building a Micro-ATX system for a friend who wants a smaller case with an open optical drive that isn't too noisy, dusty or hot, and I don't want it to look like it's from 2005, so there are a few options. promising, but despite having a closed front, it still has a vented top and is likely to be quite noisy due to noisy internal…

    Pros
    • Decent performance
    Cons
    • Some minor issues

    Revainrating 4 out of 5

    Ensures good air circulation

    Like: The front lets tons of air in and the roof and rear let the air out really well. Features three removable screens (bottom, front and top) for easy cleaning. I like the hidden black color and the layout of the power button, audio jacks and two USB ports. I didn't notice any sharp metal edges inside like in many budget cases. Finally, the cover for the power supply. Dislikes: As mentioned, I wish the PSU cover was removable. When using a modular power supply, it is a bit difficult to…

    Pros
    • All right!
    Cons
    • So far so good

    Budget build monsters are friendly!

    Sorry for the somewhat "good" cable routing in the photos. For starters, I bought this with the intention of putting together a cheap 1080p build, and that's absolutely right. confusing until you fiddle around and take things apart and dig into this thing's many hidden functions. He hides a lot. The SSD slot at the top of the hard drive bay makes it really useful for any new PC builder, you don't need to spend more money to get something for your SSD if you don't find it necessary to have an…

    Pros
    • practical
    Cons
    • not the best

    1st off worthy letter good price but there are questions. The power button is sticky. So if the motherboard has direct bios input function, if you press and hold the button more than 4 seconds, you need to turn it off. Also, the instructions are very misleading, as if the guy who did the illustration never assembled the case. Case in point, if you install SSDs on the back panel, they need to be installed before the motherboard, not 3 steps later, because you spend 50 minutes connecting the…

    Pros
    • Absolutely amazing!
    Cons
    • Not bad but...
