There's good reason why the only case that had better thermals in 2022 is the full-tower torrent. 2x180mm fans definitely give a lot of air and keep the case very quiet, so quiet that you forget the computer is even on. I use no bottoms fans and I can achieve below 60 degrees both cpu and gpu. Some cases need 10+ fans to do that when this case can do it with just 2. It's $100 cheaper than the Fractal torrent. The only downside is that you have to cable manage very well or the side panel will not close properly.

Whilst it takes a bit of effort to cable manage everything it's an excellent case, especially for an air cool build.

Great looking case with excellent cooling performance thanks to those massive intake fans. Cable management is quite bad and you will need to take your time to get it right. Helps to have a small PSU with easy to fold cables. Not a deal breaker. Glass side panel on the back side is pointless. Tint is very dark can barely see inside my case with the fans off.

Moved a mini-ITX system into this case since the GPU wasn't getting enough air in its smaller case. Was a little concerned since I like a quiet system - thankfully the huge Fractal fans in front are even quieter than the be quiets in my last system at idle. Under load, you'll definitely know they're there, but all of the noise is from the air moving through the case.The downside is the tiny amount of cable management space. For a system with an RGB hub and a single SATA SSD, it was definitely doable, but required a lot of careful thinking about cable routing and bundling to get the rear glass panel to close without bending. More than that might get a little tricky in the small space. The case materials are a little underwhelming with the amount of plastic, but how ... MoreMoved a mini-ITX system into this case since the GPU wasn't getting enough air in its smaller case.

More than that might get a little tricky in the small space. The case materials are a little underwhelming with the amount of plastic, but how often are you lovingly caressing the top of your case, anyway?The good news: the system runs about 10C cooler than previously at full load, and a good 15C cooler under light usage. Those fans work to the point where sitting 4 feet back from the case, I can feel the air currents pick up when the fans ramp up (even just to 50 percent!).The RGB fans are pretty stellar, too - they light up evenly and reliably, with smooth transitions and vivid colors.Overall - with a little patience (and a relatively uncomplicated system), this is a solid case for air cooling any components that typically run a little hotter than normal.
Great, airflow design is one of the best and keeps your components cool. However, noise can be a bit annoying with the large front fans.Also, why is the back panel also tampered glass lol.. Very pointless and makes cable management harder.
That's really all there is to it. A pleasure to work with but be very mindful of the cable management space, recommend a fully modular PSU with some patience.
Only had the case for a day, and so far only installed the PSU.. but I can judge the quality which is as you would expect for the price very high. You can see a lot of thought and attention to has gone into designing the case.
excellent in everything... the final result is very satisfactory, it is beautiful and impressive at the same time... many options to customize, the cooling is better than in the previous case that was open
a top quality case. i don't know how it can be that cheap... would pay double. i browsed about 1000 cases and didn't find one other in that relative small size with still having no room or cooling issues. specs say even an eATX would fit?
