> 3 dayWOW. Bought as a replacement for my Rosewill case to add more fans. You can fit two Noctua 140mm fans up top or an AIO as well as two Noctua 140mm fans in front. A Noctua 120mm fan for the rear fits like it was laser cut for my mobo. The cable management is easy and abundant. There are no rubber or plastic grommets, just folded over metal lips that are safe for even small, unprotected wires like my CPU cooler fan cable. There are magnetic mesh filters for the front and top fans. I will be purchasing from Lian Li again if I ever see a need to get another case. Cons: The two fans that come complimentary with the case burn out in a month. Dont bother attempting to use them like I did.

> 3 dayThe case is nice and spacious. The back area to hide cable management is nice too. BUT, the color and mode buttons on it refuse to work. The only way I can manage the colors is by turning off my pc and turning it back on to see what random colors I will get. I tested each fan and their leds separately and they seem to work, but despite that the rgbs will not respond properly when I use the built in buttons. I looked online for answers, and it seems others have have issues with the fan rgbs as well. Overall, the case is functional enough and cute, but the lack of control of the fan rgbs is disappointing.

> 3 dayI love this case with the exception of a couple things. The Good: The build Quality is excellent. Good Air flow I like the ease of the radiator mounting adapter for the front and top. Plenty of room for an AIO or a custom loop and large Video Card The Bad(ish): Limited room behind the motherboard try so youll have to be creative tying off excess cables. My biggest gripe pertains to the PSU compartment. My Corsair HX750 barely fit height wise. I was nearly impossible to tuck in all the PSU wires (mine is modular so i can only imagine non mod PSUs difficulty) and keep the 3.5in drive bays. This wasnt an issue for me as I have only nvme SSDs running but if you have the need for 3.5in drives and a longer than avg PSU you may want to avoid this case. Otherwise its a fantastic case and value

Greater than one weekOverall very nice There was one Sata connection I couldnt use due to the case design, but no big deal Fans are big, and beutiful ARGB, but loud I wish the ARGB hub supported RGB so I could use the cases front panel switch to control my AIO No power/hdd lights or reset button, which is fine by me LOTS of space and ventilation inside, and very good access

> 3 dayThis case was an absolute pleasure to build in. So many quality of life’s features in here that makes it much easier to install your parts, such as fan brackets, man holes around the motherboard for cabling, and the ability to quickly remove any part of the frame for better access. The only problem I faced was the top fan bracket, where it can only be installed one direction (even though it looks as though it can be both ways). In reality that was my fault though, and only a minor thing. The case is manufactured well and I’ve never has thumb screws in the back glide in so smoothly. You can feel the quality and precision when building. I highly recommend this case.

> 3 dayI am actually using a micro atx board so this case is overkill but i feel confident even with a larger board the cable management and overall desighn of the case would still give alot of space and the desighn is very slick some of the screws seemed to strip pretty easily but i was using the wrong screwdriver just trying to make it work and thats common in electronics that screws strip easily so it doesnt really bother me the metal case feels sturdy ive pulled on the bottom cover for the power supply with most of my strengh before realizing i needed to slide it and it still works like nothing happened no bends overall sturdy sexy case with usb3.0 for a good price it is my first pc build though still seems very solid and looks nice

> 3 dayJust think about the thermals before you buy

> 3 dayPretty good, but it didn’t fit my graphics card when using a micro atx motherboard. The graphics card fit length-wise, but was too thick and ran into the psu shroud. I returned this case with no problems and bought a jonsbo d31 instead.

> 3 dayIt had been 10 years since I had built my last computer, and it was time. After a lot of searching I settled on this case and I have not been disappointed. It was packaged extremely well for shipping protection. The fit and finish is as close to perfect as I think you can get. All the panels and removeable items slide on and off easily and are secured with metal thumb knobs -- no funky alignment issues and frustrations. The material is a good compromise between weight and strength. There is no tin canning and everything feels substantial. The finish and paint are perfect. The interior room is very ample for a clean installation and cable routing yielding a very nice finished look. It is a very easy case to work with. It comes with two fans, but I added a third, placing it on the front panel, which was very easy. There are a few wish it had items, however: The bottom air filter is not in a tray and may be inconvenient to clean; the case does not have a beeper, disk activity LED, or reset button, all of which I had become used to. All in all I am very pleased with my decision and purchase. I recommend this case without reservation.

> 3 dayEasy to work in, side panels come off with thumb screws, enough space underneath and in back to cable manage. Only real concern is the room for a graphics card to breath... But so far Ive managed great temps even with half an inch of space. Card never sees above 70°c, so I assume the air flow in case is more than sufficient! I highly recommend stepping up to the 140mm fans up front as intakes, and exhaust the rest.
