" ...  You would be paying good money for high-quality case.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The case is a good value for under $100 but does have some compromises. ... Tempered glass is beautiful to look at and it feels solidly built as far as the case itself goes.  ...  "

" ...  Ample cable management space and expandability.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Cable management is good with the cable hiding strip, and plenty of holes including holes in the PSU shroud.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The cable management is a dream, the look is out of this world with the tempered glass and very well thought out cable holes, and the CPU/GPU temps look fantastic.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Cable management is easy.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Cable cut outs and cable management is as easy as it gets, its basic yet very well placed.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Makes cable management stupid easy and has many places to mount SSDs. ... With a fairly thick fan and a 120 mm rad, I had to squeeze the radiator and fan between the cable management bar and the front of the case, and it wouldn't clear my RAM if I stuck it on the top.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The built in cable management and routing options for wiring was great.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Cable management is quite good and hidden in the back side panel which is not glass.  ...  "

" ...  In the future, I think I'd really like to see a tempered glass front panel.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The glass is absolutely beautiful.  ...  "
comment
" ...  I'm an absolute sucker for anything matte black and the fact that this has a full glass side panel (and minimalist) is like this case was made for me.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Front glass is nice and easy to remove and re-install.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Is there anyway I can get a replacement glass.  ...  "
comment
" ...  You will smile every time you look at your rig through that gorgeous tempered glass side panel!  ...  "

comment
" ...  Fits my Dark Rock Pro 3 cooler with mere millimeters to spare, if that, but be warned that you'll need a flexible set of PCI-E power connectors if you have a wide card, as there is very little room for them once the card is in.  ...  "
comment
" ...  I like that the case is short, because I can fit it more easily in the space where I stick my computer, but for some people maybe an extended/longer version of this case would be desirable.  ...  "
comment
" ...  But a little patience and time you’ll get it to fit perfectly!  ...  "
comment
" ...  Although the inputs on the top do feel flimsy, it is still a great case nonetheless.  ...  "
comment
" ...  for example when you unscrew the nicely finished screws holding uo the beautiful tempered glass the while thing dont just slide down it just hangs there under its iwn weight.  ...  "
comment
" ...  However, there is so much room in the actual front of the case where my MOBO goes that feel like I could fit a second computer in it.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The mounts also all use screws on the underside of the SSD, rather than the edges.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Easy to pull apart and put back together.  ...  "

" ...  Beautiful case, needs liquid cooling as the air flow is iffy but damn does it look good.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Even with 2 intake fans on an AIO water loop and 2 exhaust fans.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Ventilation and air cooling is adequate, and my 8700k/1080ti combo stays below 60 most always.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Using it with a ATX motherboard, the Kraken 62 cooler mounted in the front with fans pulling in to the radiator.  ...  "

" ...  i built my rig in 30 min posted first time.  ...  "
comment
" ...  * The support for a front 280mm radiator is great for those with AIO water coolers.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Airflow is great .  ...  "
comment
" ...  If you were using an air cooler, you could expect about another inch of room if you were to just put a couple intake fans in the front.  ...  "

comment
" ...  I love the extra USB connections at the front of the tower.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Everything is so well thought-out especially when it comes to cable management.  ...  "
comment
" ...  In back, the cable management points are are also great. ... * The HDMI passthrough to the front IO is extremely convenient for VR.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Magnetic puck work great for holding the Oculus, along with the front IO's HDMI plug.  ...  "
comment
" ...  There are also cutouts in the shroud so you can rout your front IO connectors through the back of the case and directly into the sockets, without having them hang in front of the motherboard.  ...  "
comment
" ...  BUY SATA CABLES THAT ARE FLAT ON BOTH ENDS! ... There is an included flat hard drive power adapter if you want to use the front/side display SSD slot. ... Another cable disclaimer, if you intend to use the front HDMI passthrough, buy a 90° HDMI joint, so you don't stress the included cable and if you want it look pretty.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Nonetheless, you will have to be using straight SATA cable for any SSD with the case.  ...  "

comment
" ...  The plexi side panel window is by far the best improvement since the S340 and the puck works perfectly for a place to hang my headset when not in use.  ...  "
