Relatively easy to put together, looks good

Compared to a similar case I've used, this one has some immediate advantages that I want to highlight. First, the instructions and cables were easy to find and nothing was hidden, which made it a lot easier to get started. Also plenty of space/holes for cable management. It's just as easy to put together as any other case, meaning it's just as heavy as you are. After the first boot I had to reconnect the audio cable. Some of the lighting connections were a bit tricky to understand when I firstโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • It's driving me insane

Not good, not bad though.

So you must know from the start that this thing will NOT allow you to mount AIO in the 240mm range with fans attached on it. At the top there are either fans or cyclists, not both. This means you may run into problems if the AIO tube is too short to maneuver around a modern sized graphics card and have a wheel as a front mount. Blame it on Corsair's own H100i RGB PRO paired with this case. Read the full MFG sizing information to see what might fit rather than looking at silly marketing photosโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Nicely
Cons
  • Zero

The case looks great but unfortunately it's too small to work in. I suspect that this is due to the compactness of the case. As a result, I managed to fit the following system into it: - AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3960X - ASUS ROG Strix TRX40-XE motherboard - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Founder's Edition GPU - Corsair H150i Pro XT iCUE 360mm AIO- 2x SATA SSD- 1x SATA HDD - Thermaltake Toughpower iRGB Plus 1200W PSU Many reviewers remarked that it would not be a problem to hold the HDD cage even with

Pros
  • Great workmanship
Cons
  • Durable

Difficult to install Motherboard

All in all a pretty good case but I have a couple of questions: 1. The top doesn't open and isn't removable and neither does it if your CPU -Cooler is very close to the top and you install it before installing the mobo in the case, the top center mounting screw of the motherboard and to a lesser extent the top back is almost inaccessible. I had to use a parts puller, some pliers and a long CPU cooler hex screwdriver to get them in. It hurts a lot. In the next version, they should just screw the

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Nothing

Fashionable fans in a practical case

This case is based on pre-installed fans and an RGB controller. If you don't like these fans, you won't like the case either. The case is cheap but functional. The large distance between the fans and the glass ensures adequate airflow, high-quality fans and some of the best RGB products on the market. Aside from the included fans and an RGB controller, there's nothing special about the case, but I think that's what a lot of people are looking for because I haven't found anything wrong with itโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Computer case
Cons
  • No performance

Great case, a few minor disappointments

This is the first new case I've had since 2009, so the specs on the case have changed really a lot. I like the cable management, the optics, the glass. I argued between this and the 570x, going for the lighter weight, smaller size and LL-RGB fans. Everything is great, except for a few negative points: - The 3.5" hard drive cuts into the area in front of the power supply for cable management, but cannot be removed if you want to use a 3.5" drive. There is room for the entire cage to moveโ€ฆ

Pros
  • External components
Cons
  • Nothing
