Fractal Design Define 7 XL Dark Tempered Glass Full-Tower E-ATX Case - Black

Pros: Very modular for any needs. Cable routing is fantastic to give a nice clean look. Has a ton of space so you are not fighting to put everything on the case.Cons: Its really just one bad thing but its huge. Some of the screws are WAY too tight. One screw was in so tight there was no getting it loose.If you don't mind a possible fight with trying to get screws loose its a great case. On the other hand if you lack hand strength and multiple different screw drivers to fit the screws properly I would look for another case.

Awesome case

Best case I've ever owned (and my first full tower since the 90ies). The fact that you can easily remove the sides (and even the top) made building a new rig super simple (with no cuts on my skin! lol). One of the middle standoffs for a ATX board made installing the MB easy - the cable management is simple and very useful. Cables for the case USB ports/etc were all plenty long enough to plug into the X570 board I have ... and I like the Dark Tint! The most I've ever spent on a case and I think it was well worth it!

Big, solid, a water coolers dream.

I bought this case to hold both a thick 480 rad (Corsair XR7-480) and a thin 360 rad (Magicool 360). The 480 fit on top even though 54mm plus 25mm fans. The front heavy duty plastic mounting allowed my EK D5-140 to attach with the EK mount. Comes with three nice 140mm Fractal fans. Incredibly solid but a bit heavy. Perhaps the nicest compliment is Fractal Define created a large case that was NOT overpowering.

Great case

First, this case is huge. If you're looking for something reasonably sized, check out the regular Define 7 series. However, if you're looking for a case that will be extremely customizable, plenty of room to work in, and very well built, I haven't run across a better one. It runs very quiet and has plenty of open air. I'm using air cooling and haven't had any problems with temps even when pushing the processor and video card.

Great case with lots of room, great design

This is a great case with lots of room for all your components. The modular design makes it very easy to customize. Tons of room for graphics cards, SSDs cooling and the power supply. My only complaint is some of the screws (hard drive cages) are very tight and difficult to remove. That's the only reason I didn't give 5 stars. I highly recommend this case, it's well worth the money.

High quality, beautiful and simple design.

I’m still waiting for my processor (bet you can guess which brand and series that’s out of stock literally everywhere), so I haven’t built the PC yet. But I think this case is very elegant and well designed. You can build it in many different configurations, including 2 MoBos, or a server set up etc. lots of rooms for fans and cooling. The top is removable and can be configured to also allow for more airflow. My brother has this case for his server build and we both like it so much it convinced me to buy it for my first pic build.

Mahoosive case

This case is the offspring of an industrial biscuit tin and an elephant, it is well made and mahoosive. I bought it for its capacity for 5.25 drives and having space for water cooling, at nearly 20kg it roomy and certainly fits my requirements. The cages for HD's are a little difficult to find in the UK but can be found, I have 4 coming which should be enough for all my drives, you can also fit an internal CD/DVD if you need to. It should be a huge improvement over my 16-year-old case that is falling to pieces.

Otherwise great case suffers from a fatal flaw

This is a well-designed, functional case, except for the fact that the screws were tightened WAY too much at the factory. They are so tight that I injured my hand and scratched the paint of the case. I am now having to go to the hardware store to spend more money on hardware to extract the screws that are holding down the mounting brackets. This review would otherwise have 5 stars if it weren't for this enormous headache.

Solid, quiet, modular

It is really big ( be sure to look at the measurements ). I bought it based on friend's recommendation. It has been a while since I built PC from components, but it is refreshing how much things have changed for the better in this area. Nearly everything is made for a minimum of fuss and maximum convenience. Small little example, MB raisers were already placed in for ATX; all cables are already prepared for you so there is no need for more annoying assembly. It is expensive, but frankly it is worth it.

Worth the Money

This case is definitely pricey, but worth every penny. Solid construction and room to grow your system. Whether you go air or liquid-cooled, there is ample space for a ton of drives and at least 3 double-sized GPUs.The design is clean yet elegant. It will withstand the rigors of everyday use and it's a case that will stay ahead of any upgrades you decide on, i.e. the type of case that can easily last 5 years.I've tried most of the name brands. This case is far and away the best one I've ever purchased.
