Review on LOUQE Ghost S1 Mk III (Ash): Sleek and Compact Mini-ITX Computer Case by Dwayne Pore

As a long time SFF fan and builder I decided to build an HTPC with this case when Noctua's Ghost S1 edition released for L12. After pre-ordering the case, it took a little longer than originally estimated. There is nothing new at LOUQE. Anyway, when the case arrived everything was neatly packed and I liked that the instructions were available online and there was no wasted paper. Another common issue with these cases is the lack of quality control for their price. To name a few things that are wrong with me, the left side panel has one side that doesn't line up with the front of the case (see attached image) and the finish isn't the best (had some stains, but they were in order). inside of the panels). The offset bezel is literally on one side only - the other side of the bezel and the other bezel (both sides) for the CPU side are flush. I tried playing around with tightening the screws to see if that would help, but it didn't help. Since the PC is behind the TV, these things don't really matter, but for the price you should expect more. I gave this case a 4 instead of a 5 because it looks good and the overall quality is good. better than cheap fakes on Chinese sites. I wish there was better quality control and after all the years LOUQE have been selling this case it doesn't seem like they aren't a priority right now. Like most SFF cases, this case is not for the average consumer, but more for enthusiasts.
