Review on Computer case PowerCase Mistral G4C ARGB black by Wiktor Wiater ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The perfect purchase for me, exactly what I was looking for!

Excellent value for money. Great for a budget but decent build. This is not the case that you will put two 2080ti in SLI, but let's face it - if you can afford two 2080ti, then you need to take a case for them not for 3.5k. Some pros: 1. Looks great. Modern, strict, without GAMER embellishments. 2. Small dimensions. In all dimensions, it is smaller (read more carefully) than the similar-looking DeepCool Matrex 55. 3. The presence of a cable channel. On the one hand, the cable channel allows you to make the case narrower, and on the other hand, it visually separates the motherboard and fills the uncomfortable void between the board and the front fans. You still will not put water cooling on tubes in this case - and therefore a place to install a pump - is useless. 4. 4 built-in RGB fans. During operation, they emit a pleasant quiet low rumble - like the sound of the surf. But in my assembly you can’t hear them at all - everything is drowned out by DeepCool Gammaxx v2 (I’m just dissatisfied with the purchase, unlike the case) Has cons: Nibbling: 1. One of the USB ports on the front panel is stuck. It is not clear why it was removed at all. And if they already brought it out - why solder it. Would put one more USB2.0 - there would be no questions. 2. The front wall is not glass, but acrylic. 3. The air intake on the front could be better. But, if you do not install a super-productive system from i9 intels and 2080th gifors, then it copes. 4. There is no single mount for standard ATX. The board is placed on 8 mounts, instead of 9. 5. One-piece hard drive basket. Anti-vibration pads are included, but they are few and it is not entirely obvious how to use them. In my assembly, I generally removed the basket so that there was more space for the wires. The most important disadvantage: After a month of use, the backlight controller began to fail. Switch to random modes just like that. I think to replace it with any other six-pin controller, such as Ginzu RGB CRC10, I think it should work.
