Pros: It looks great, first of all. It's similar to another PC case that's popular at the moment, but I believe for less cost. Not that you would be likely to tell from looking at it; the quality and workmanship is wonderful! I got the Pro version with the fans and led distributor pre-installed, which I think was worth it for the installation and the fans - a very good deal. Due to an unrelated shipping issue I haven't been able to power it on yet, but I have every expectation that the fans and LEDs will operate adequately. There is a lot of room for all kinds of internal components; more even than the promotional material hints at. It comes with an extra bracket for drives if you would rather have that than the bottom fans. It also has a few easily removable features that make it extremely easy to work on it and re-configure the internals. It also comes with a front grill; if you would rather it take in air from the front panel the fans can swivel forward and draw in air from the front. This is also becoming a more standard feature on good cases, but the filters are removable for cleaning. There is a lot of room for water-cooling components like a custom loop, which I plan to do at some point. There is even room for a whole second power supply if you wanted that for some reason.

Cons: So it is bigger than I thought it would be. That's mainly on me since the dimensions are clearly listed in the specs and I didn't bust out a ruler at any point. I have to admit that I was really looking for something a little more compact and I might not have gotten this one if I had realized how large it was. They could have easily shaved a few centimeters of of at least one side. That said, size does come with a lot of advantages and it isn't actually too big for me to use, so I'm happy with it. The only other thing is that the top panel is removable for cleaning and easier component installation. However, if just the filter panel is removable for even easier cleaning, then I haven't yet figured out how to do that. That might have been a deliberate design choice or it may be that there needs to be something in the instruction manual... or it may be that it's in there but I missed it. In any case, it's a pretty minor thing, especially considering the direction the air flow is supposed to be going. The front USB-C to motherboard cable is a bit stiff and hard to work with, but I wouldn't really expect that to be very different in another case.

Overall Review: Really great case; good materials and workmanship. Looks amazing! Kind of on the bigger side, but in a newer format that feels more compact. Very flexible and overflowing with configuration options. The pre-installed fans on the Pro version are a great value.

Really Works!

Pros: Works awesomely! I've had it to years and though before I got it I was worried it might leak somehow, It's been the best cooling device I've ever had.

Cons: Only that it takes up space/vents you might have wanted to use for a more comprehensive cooling system, but nothing else.
