I was looking for a budget case to replace the one I was currently not happy with. I saw a review on this case and decided it had some great features for the price. If you are looking for a well built mid-tower case with lots of room, well this case is for you. Pulling the case from the box you notice right away that they use high quality packing materials to get the case to you. The tempered glass panel sits on rubber grommets and is attached by thumb screws. The inside of the case provides more than enough space for most atx motherboards and video cards. If you have an AIO water cooler your options are a 240m cooler at the front. I left the factory LED fans in the front and installed my 240m radiator with fans behind it in a push/pull configuration and still have a bit of room between video card and fans. Front is a full metal mesh panel so you get excellent air flow through the front and have the 120m fan in the back for exhaust. As you can see in the photos it does have a separate chamber for the PSU and HHD. It does not support 5.25 drive at the top if you have a DVD rewriter but was not a deal breaker for me since external ones are cheap and readily available.If you want a quality mid-tower case that looks great, is well built, has a tempered glass window, for a great price, buy this for your next PC build. You will not be disappointed,

I really like this case. I would have liked it more had I bought it when it was $60 instead of $80, but it's really a fine case.The good: I don't have much experience with modern cases, but this one was pretty simple to build. The pass-through for the CPU power cable is out of the way enough that you can pass it through after installing the motherboard, yet it's not so roomy inside that it is unnecessarily large. I personally hate cases that are any larger than they have to be, and this one is relatively compact. In my build there is some empty space to the right of the motherboard, but it doesn't look disproportionate. The glass looks really nice, it's got a mild tint and blacked out edges. The front doesn't look as nice as a Meshify C, but it's really not bad, and at least it's not solid plastic, there is actually some airflow. And it's 30% cheaper than a Meshify C.The meh: I would personally rather have been provided with black fans instead of ugly red ones. I personally am going to replace them anyways with some RGB fans, but it would be nice if when I use them for another project they weren't ugly.The bad: I have three gripes. 1) The rubber grommets to the right of the motherboard get covered up by an ATX motherboard. Like, wtf, why did you put them there. I removed them and put them in the pass-throughs further to the right, but one of them is pretty badly misshapen and made the grommet look really funny. In the end it's not noticeable because of the motherboard power cable deforming it anyways. 2) The front logo led is powered by a molex connector. Why isn't that a SATA connector? I mean, it's a red LED, so I was probably gonna leave it unplugged anyways. 3) The front audio connector that plugs into the motherboard uses colored wires that go into the connector, in a case that has a tempered glass side panel, really wtf. It's a minor gripe, but I shouldn't have to wrap the connector in black electrical tape, it should come that way from the factory.

Best case I’ve ever seen hands down. Real glass side panel. Quiet fans, easy cable management. If your a gaming enthusiast and want the best for your build this is the case for you. Inside temps are about 21 degrees after about 2 hours of downloading games, playing rust, running emulators and playing sevtech: ages. Blown my expectations away. Great case!!

Tempered glass side panel is nice with rubber grommets to prevent scratching. It does come with 3 fans, 2 red led in the front and a single plain exhaust. I would recommend getting some 140mm fans for the front though just to beef up if you are going air cooling. Case offers almost nothing in the way of support for water cooling, but fits the biggest noctua cooler you can get (the nh d15 one). Back side has plenty of room for good cable management. Case is sturdy over all. I just wish there were more fan mounts and expandability for water cooling.
