At first I was Skeptical, now I’m amazed

Built in ARGB Hub (Pre attached)
3 Decent ARGB fans
1 Decent regular fan
1 AMAZING reverse fan
MORE THAN ENOUGH HDD/SDD space
Tons of cable management room
Tons of cables + Velcrow cables for management
Easy to assemble
Easy to wire manage
Amazing look
If I could rate it higher than 5/5 I would

3 ARGB fans definitely are a noticeable noise, BUT not a killer for the case, even without the fans I would buy this case!

(Though I loved the fans and used them for a bit I did switch to quieter fans, but the noise on the original definitely isn’t super loud or crazy annoying)

If you’re skeptical I’m telling you BUY IT!

At first I was skeptical because how cheap it is, it’s fairly cheaper than any other case with these options, I watched a couple videos and I was fairly surprised with the quality so i took the risk and I’m more than happy, it was super easy to build in.
The ARGB fans are amazing quality even though they’re a little noisy. I did opt to switch the 3 fans in the front after a while but they were definitely pretty solid.
The regular fan they have is pretty good actually I like it better than the ARGB one, even though the color is dull.
The reverse fan is a beautiful addition, I can’t even find any good quality reverse fans for a good price, so to add this for your GPU is amazing.
I can keep going on about how amazing the panels slide on and are easy to screw in, and how much room you have for future additions, or how amazing the air flow is, etc but I would be here all day, all I’m trying to say is, Buy it. You won’t regret it.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Fine case for bling and for airflow

- Plenty of space
- Lots of places to zip tie cables and the like
- Looks good once built
- Great case for the money

- Drive mounting was an afterthought
- Has weird drive mounts on the back of the motherboard tray. Not well conceived at all
- Not the best for cable management.
- The included LED/Fan controller mounts to the center back of the case. It's hard to have anything but a spider of cables coming from the controller. Add on the mounting for the drives being on the back plate, and it's just hard to organize your cables in general. The side panel hides the mess, but clearly this was meant for looks, and assumes all drives are going to be m.2 and any other form-factor is an afterthought.

- If you want a nice case on a budget, this case will get you done.
- If you're doing a serious build or have any special purposes in mind, I'd look for another case.

GENERAL GRIPE:
I've been building systems since the 90s. The last 5 yrs are so have been a dark age for case design. I miss being able to have integrated accessories in my case, and having compatibility for more than pretty LEDs. I would love to be able to have a recording interface, or card-reader, or hot swappable drive bays in my cases, but the industry has decided that no matter how big and expensive your case is, those desires are silly.
