Product Description Wrong

Rosewill CULLINAN V500 RGB ATX Mid-Tower Gaming PC Computer Case, Supports E-ATX & 360mm Liquid Coolers, 4 Dual-Ring Remote-Controlled RGB LED Fans, Tempered Glass
Rosewill CULLINAN V500 RGB ATX Mid-Tower Gaming PC Computer Case, Supports E-ATX & 360mm Liquid Coolers, 4 Dual-Ring Remote-Controlled RGB LED Fans, Tempered Glass

Pros: Nice design. RGB fans look great. Oversized air intakes. The main reason I picked this particular case. All painted / no sharp edges. Rubber feet assembly instead of just rubber and adhesive. Tinted glass PSU enclosure. Removable 2.5" trays and 3.5" cartridges.

Cons: Product details on Newegg, Rosewill site, and manual are all wrong. The 3 front fans only support 120mm. There is only 1 pair of mounting lines and they are only for 120mm. 140mm also will physically not fit even with an adapter in front OR back. The only way your're getting 140mm fans on the front is with a dummy 120mm on the outside of bracket that is thin enough to mount a 120mm to 140mm adapter and still have enough room to not hit the back of the front glass. Good luck. Emailed rosewill support about it and got nothing but crickets in over a weeks time. Newegg and the manual both say the unit supports a 280mm radiator on top. A 280mm radiator can be installed on top, but then you can't install the fans on the radiator because it hits the 2.5" drive mount tray. Included fans are not PWM. Fan controller is not PWM. Fan speed must be manually set instead of controlled by firmware / thermal sensor which is ridiculous. If not for the low price of this case, this would be unacceptable. PSU shroud not removable. Not an issue since lowest fan mount is machined to accept long screw from other side. Magnetic dust screens. Heat will cause them to lose magnetism over time. Motherboard tray is not removable. Not surprising considering price. No FP USB-C.

Overall Review: Please correct the product description on newegg, rosewill website, and the product manual regarding supporting 3x 140mm fans in the front because it doesn't. Also you might want to notify your customers that if they mount a 280mm radiator on top, the actual fans are going to have to be mounted on the outside of the case on top. Unless you want to have to manually control your fan speed, the first thing I would do is replace all of the fans and the controller. Recommended mod: Re-install front 120mm fans on the back side of bracket. Snip the 2.5" drive mounting lines in the center and bend the tabs back and snip them at their bases. This will allow the fan wires to go straight out the side of motherboard tray to the back and be completely hidden from front view. This will allow you to install the front dust cover in front of the fans instead of behind which works MUCH better. Rare to see a good looking front glass RGB case with oversized air intakes. Since the specs are wrong concerning front fans and top radiator I would say this case is a complete failure.

One of the best mATX cases currently

JONSBO D30 BLACK Mini Micro ATX Computer Case, Aluminum/Steel/Tempered Glass-1 Side, Simple High Compatibility MATX Case, Support 240 Water & 168mm Air Cooling, 355mm GPU Support,Interchangeable Side

Pros: Compact, looks good, plenty of airflow, combo hd front panel, front usb C, good clearance for cpu hestsink / vga / psu, filtered intakes, no sharp corners, screw on rubber feet, rounded edges, top mount radiator plus fans do not hit full height ram w/ heatsinks.

Cons: Rear filter is stick-on. Mount a 120mm to hold it in place and it is not an issue. Missing no window option. Cable routing could be tight if you have excessive wire traffic. But this is a compact case, and this wasn't the case for me, anyway. With front-mount and modular PSU, it was not even an issue.

Overall Review: Been building custom PCs for a long time, and finding a decent case is always the most frustrating part. Thankfully this case worked perfectly and looks great. Don't understand the swapping of side panels. I'm not going to hide cables behind motherboard just to show them off again through the back window. A non-window option would better suit side-ventilated coolers. Asus B760M, 13600k, Corsair DDR4 3200 8GB x2, Cooler Master 240mm AIO, 1TB Samsung 970 Evo, Thermaltake 550 Modular

Pros: All the good stuff. Easy click, good DPI, not too heavy, no ridiculous buttons.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: Not only do I not have issues with G-Hub software, but I can set ALL of my device settings, RGB, DPI, disabled buttons, to HARDWARE memory and then uninstall G-Hub if I wish. Try doing that with an Asus video card.

Pros: The card is solid. Never had any issues. I can barely hear the fans and only when there is no sound.

Cons: Armory crate software caused crashed in game. After reinstalling windows and not installing armory crate, I didn't have these issues anymore.

Overall Review: I get 100FPS+ at 1440. no issues, no noise. Happy with purchase!

Overall Review: Looks great! Plenty of tweaking with the different features. I like the adaptive sync and shadow boost features. Almost feels like cheating when night-time looks bright as day lol. Colors are very bright! I actually had to reduce the contrast a bit. Very happy with this product!

Paid for new got used

Paid for brand new fans and they figured it would be OK to just send me a used one. No "Hey, were out of new ones, but we can offer you a used one at a discount." Nope, instead I just simply received a used one. Also, shipping was late and tracking updates were not very accurate. Avoid.
