Choose your dates carefully!

First impression: Very solid construction. Thick and light aluminum plates. Pure aesthetics. The upper mesh mesh is made of plastic. I chose to remove the hard drive bay and optical drive bracket for better airflow as they are right in front of the intake fan. There is a dust cover on the bottom, which I also removed to improve ventilation. A 140mm fan is located at the bottom to push air out of the case. I highly recommend replacing the stock fan with a quality fan like Noctua or Corsair'sโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Quick access filter with HiFlow technology to avoid dust accumulation
Cons
  • Quality

i love hate Good looking but difficult to work with

Love this store or hate it. I love the size and how clean it looks but hated putting it together. However, I had no illusions and thought I had everything planned, but still the hull was torn apart at several assembly points. This case requires a lot more planning than a regular build and was the most frustrating case I've ever worked on. However, I would still recommend it if you are looking for a unique case with a small footprint. I'm hoping this is a case where you don't need toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Foam interior for improved noise dampening
Cons
  • Neutral

Before you buy, make sure you know your requirements!

The suitcase may be good for some people, but before you buy it, you must understand your needs and goals well! I'm "researching" what I think I need and bought this case to replace my 7 year old mATX Silverstone box. My goals were: โ€ข Upgrade the PC for better performance โ€ข Use all the functionality of the old PC โ€ข VERY quiet operation. This means everything is working fine โ€ข External Blue Ray drive is fine โ€ข 2 SSDs โ€ข Connections needed: o 4 external USBs o 1 optical audio o 1 Enet connection o

Pros
  • Two Air Penetrator AP182 fans included for exceptional performance or quietness
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

High-quality housing with few compromises.

I personally had very little choice, I really needed such a case. The motherboard's 90-degree rotation meant that all of a computer's usual I/O ports were hidden at the top of the PC. Just a sleeve around the cables (power, USB, video, etc.) and the housing looks like there is only one cable, which makes the structure visually very appealing, especially when all sides of the tower are visible. all the time like it was with me. If the visual clarity offered by that 90 degree rotation isn'tโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Unlimited airflow design with unique angled vents minimizes noise and maximizes fan performance. Adjustable holder for large CPU coolers and graphics cards. Independent power supply air duct with dedicated power supply filter. Holds up to seven 3.5" hard drives and four 2.5" hard drives. SSD's
Cons
  • Not sure
