Awesomesauce!

Big case built in accent lighting. Glass door is a lift off hinge makes building a breeze. PSU cover helps a lot with aesthetics and cable management. Excellent cable management options throughout. Quality fans included (4). Customer service was awesome I had one finicky fan that didn't want to start when on my fan controller and they sent one out straight away. Customer service spoke English as a first language and didn't run me down the "Did you try this?" trail that is the be all end all of clueless customer service these days.

Only con and I would normally have docked an egg for this(but the pros offset it by quite the margin), in order to remove the front fan filter you must remove the front panel....and....in order to remove the front panel you must remove the far side panel and unplug the aforementioned accent lights.

I would recommend this case without a doubt. Anyone looking at a full tower/water cooled build. This case gives you plenty of room to build in at the outset and substantial room for future upgrading. The case looks terrific and the filter system while tedious ie.-front panel is well thought out and (for the most part) easily maintained.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Poor fit around power button makes it fail; unhelpful customer service

Looks as good as its pictures. Nice RGB flow, almost enough space for 200mm fans, fan multiplier sort of works. Rebate came unusually quickly. Deciding to offer only six (6) 3.5" bays instead of 8 as in my previous case should offer better air flow.

- The top panel is an aluminum skin over a plastic structure. The parts are misaligned so as to pinch the plastic power button, making it stick fully depressed (making your computer start up for a few seconds, then shut down, then start up, then shut down). In other words, because of poor design/tolerances, the power button is effectively broken-by-design as mentioned in several other reviews. I tried to explain this to their customer service rep who was willing only to send out a replacement "power PCB." What I received wasn't even that, just the power button alone, no circuit board. What was really needed was a replacement top panel, properly assembled. They did send the power button quickly, but I gave up on them and just fixed the problem with a small file.
- Don't even think about putting Noctua's 200mm fan in either the top or the front even though it says it can accommodate 200mm fans in those locations. The clearances are exceptionally tight
- It's also really difficult to mount fans using silicone plugs instead of screws.
- I'm not loving the door that covers the front-panel ports. It does look clean when I'm not using anything, but I use headphones often, so it becomes a minor annoyance. A 3.5mm combo jack in front of the power button, mirroring the drive light, would have been a nice way to do this.
- If you put SSDs in the SSD brackets on the glass panel side of the drive cage, their cables will be pinched up against the side of the cage. They look a little dumb empty or removed.
- Tool-less clips for 5.25 bays won't work for short devices like fan controllers/SD readers.
- One of my HDDs (Seagate 6TB) didn't have a hole where those 3.5" tool-less rail clips expected it, so I had to use screws.

If you're willing and able to take a small file to the misaligned aluminum of the top panel, you can make the power button work. The fan multiplier is clever, but it takes PWM in and seems to provide only voltage control out. Board has way more than enough fan headers anyway. My frame of reference for fan fit/clearances/mounting is my previous case, Cooler Master's Storm Stryker.
