I am probably one of the few people actually downgrading my case size, as I came from one of the monster Azza Genesis cases being sold back in 2012, but mine developed a few cracks, so alas it was time to upgrade, and I wound up going with this.Positives: Case is very roomy. Outstanding airflow. Cable management options are excellent, plenty of tie down points. Unlike most cases, the back panel fits on in such a way that it allows PLENTY of room for you to hide cables behind motherboard tray. Also, unlike some other cases I looked at, SSDs mount vertically in the back part of the case, so if you have all SSDs and no HDDs, you can remove the hard drive cages, mount two additonal fans at bottom of the case, and have nothing but open air between the front of the case and your cpu/expansion cards, with no cables in the way whatsoever. I also love the fact that the doors are screw-less. I read reviews that other people had issues with warped doors both front and back, and trouble with the doors latching, but thankfully I had none of those issues. My doors slide in and out of place like butter, yet stay firmly latched unless I physically lift the latch. I guess I was one of the lucky ones. Regarding the complaints that the case is made of cheap material, to me, the material did feel lightweight, BUT it still felt sturdy. I was completely comfortable moving it from one spot to another, by gripping the outer lips at the top of the case both front and back. I actually like that its lightweight. It's so much easier to move than my last case. Plus, my temps run cooler than they did in my Genesis case, and I'm sure the lightweight material has a lot do with that. Last but definitely not least, I LOVE the filters in this case. One on top, one on front, two on bottom. They are super easy to pull out and clean.Negatives: Only had small issues, not enough to knock an overall star off for. As other mentioned, the case fan speed defaults to the highest setting when you turn the computer on, and it's pretty loud and powerful. I wish it would stay where you last put it, but just a minor detail. I just automatically hit the switch a couple of times after I hit the power button. The only relatively big negative that I had is that if you have large fat hands like I do, it's not very easy to install expansion cards, especially if you're installing a very high end graphics card such as the 1080 ti. There is maybe a half inch of space between the top of the brackets and the outer shroud of the case and if you don't aim the thumbscrew just right, it's very easy to drop the screw into crevices on your motherboard, or even worse, into the shroud of the video card's fan like I did. I did that several times and probably removed and reinstalled my video card ten times before I gave up and asked my wife (who has very small hands) to screw those thumbscrews in for me. I highly recommend having a magnetic screw driver handy when installing the expansion cards so you can easier grab screws that drop. If anyone has tips to make this process easier, I'm listening.Other thoughts: Even with the issue I had installing the expansion cards, I highly recommend this case, especially if you're not ready to make the jump to liquid cooling and prefer good old fashioned air cooling like I do. You aren't going to get much better than this when it comes to good airflow. For those complaining that the one filter on top isn't enough, in most cases, the top fans are meant to be exhaust fans, so we're lucky that corsair even including a filter on top. This is the first case I've seen that even had a filter in that location, and if you're getting dust around that area despite the top fans being exhaust fans, you've probably got too many exhaust fans in your case and not enough intake fans (negatively pressurized case). Bottom line, I was hesitant to get this case because of a few of the other reviews, especially the ones that mentioned the case being flimsy, but I took a chance and I'm really glad I did. No regrets on buying this case. I expect to have this for years to come.

I bought this when I upgraded from air cooling to liquid cooling. This held my massive 360mm cooler just fine. This case, along with my cooler puts my i7-7700k at 27 to 29 Celsius at idle. And under load, it stays around the mid to upper 60s, for games like Far Cry 5 with all settings at ultra and 60 fps thanks to the Gtx 1080 I have in the build.Under lower load, like Marvel Alliance for example, I think I was at 40 degrees Celsius.Great quality case. I LOVE that the sides open like car door handles. Makes it super easy to get in there and work on stuff and change stuff out.Here are the only negatives I found on this case:The trays for HDDs and SSDs seem a little too flexy for my liking but the seem strong enough.My radiator had 6 fans, 3 on top and 3 below. The bottom ones were easy, but mounting the 3 tops ones to the radiator through the top was a PITA. Once it was done though, it looked very nice. And they work great.Lastly, and this is just a preference thing, a PSU shroud would have been realllllllyyyyy nice. There are aftermarket ones, but it's just a bummer to have such a sweet case with great visibility to the guts and then see all the PSU wires.Other than those small things, the case is fantastic. I didn't feel that any of those issues are enough to knock off a star. I would highly recommend this case to anyone.

I love this case. Space was not that much of a need for me and my preference is for large fans that can spin at a lower RPM but still get really good airflow. This case is large enough that building and managing cables was very simple and airflow allows everything to stay nice and cool. CConstruction and materials feel extremely solid and sturdy. I was concerned about the latches on the sides not being as snug as a case that has those screwed in place but was pleasantly surprised with how well mine fit and how nice it is to really quickly be able to access things in the case and make changes (recently added another drive and forgot how simple this case makes things.)The giant window makes it an impressive looking if your motherboard, CPU, and GPU have lighting on them. Also a fan of the aesthetics on this and the fact that it's USB ports face upwards is (for me anyways) a really nice aspect as I don't have my pant legs snag on USB sticks or dongles that might be getting used. Also found it very very easy to add a liquid cooled CPU cooler to this case as there's so much room to work in.

I was looking for a unique tower that would go along with a white build I was attempted to do. I watched numerous reviews on this case and came to the conclusion it would work well for what I was doing. First of all, the case looks great and breaks away from the traditional square box design. The interior provides more than enough room for positive air flow set up which I feel is the best way to cool a system. The case comes with three fans that I replaced with the Corsair Quiet SF120 and Corsair AF140. The fan change was more personal interest and not necessary as the stock ones are more than efficient. The traditional bay drives can be removed allowing for additional air flow. I removed the top three and left the remaining bottom three as I knew I would not have more than one traditional drive in this build. There are three slots for SSDs on the back panel, and you can see the one from the picture I have submitted. The case design allows for flexibility when trying to do cable management, and I found I did not have to spend as much time trying to make things fit as I have in the past. Overall, I am very pleased with this case, and it has more than enough room to work inside the case. Installing new components was simplified by the large amount of room in the case itself. I have attached some photos for you to see the interior room this case has. In my opinion, a great purchase for my needs.
