I love this pc case but the handles are pretty uncomfortable but still useful and they feel a little cheap. Also the led strips stopped working after the first week which is annoying but I didn’t even know they came with it in the first place so I don’t really care
I purchased this case so I could more easily attend LAN parties. Much much smaller than my original case… but as my first time working inside a small case I had many issues. Im sure veterans of mini builds would have no issues.
Most certainly a 5 star case
I’ve had my eye on this case for a while. The only less than ideal thing I can think of is the fans having black cables rather than white. Seriously impressed
J’ai pris ce botier dans sa variantes avec 3 ventilateurs A-RGB et centrale de commande fournis.
Son look rend super bien et il prend un place rduite tout en permettant pas mal d’amnagements muscls…
… mais le montage d’une grosse configuration peut tre complexe. Dans ces cas l, il faut s’avoir s’armer de patience tre ingnieux et consulter de la documentation en ligne pendant le montage.
Les lments qui complexifient l’amnagement sont :
– watercooling ou systme radiateur avec 2 ventilateurs
– montage horizontale d’une grande carte graphique. Prfrez le montage vertical permet de prendre en charge des cartes graphiques jusqu’ 339 (donne qui j’ai vrifi avec ma XFX RX 6950XT Speedster MERC319), mais il faudra acqurir une nappe rallonge PCI-Express 4.0 de 20 cm, et perdre au moins un emplacement pour ventilateur 120 mm.
– les alimentations ATX dont la longueur est au-dessus du standard (plus de 170 mm) qui n’a pas beaucoup de place pour arriver condenser le peu de cbles qui sortent (pourtant l’alimentation est modulaire) dans un si petit espace.
Pour finir, l’architecture du botier fait qu’il est totalement permable aux sons qui en manent. Il restitue donc beaucoup de nuisances.
C’est aussi une qualit, puisque de la sorte il ventile trs bien les composants.
Les ventilateurs A-RGB fournis sont tout de mme assez audibles pour un niveau d’efficacit sufisant.
En rsum :
C’est un bon botier (fabriqu dans un acier de meilleure qualit que la moyenne) positionn un prix correct pour beaucoup de possibilits.
Il dispose galement de 3 ports USB 3.x en faade (enfin, sur le ct) ce qui devient rare dans cette gamme de prix.
Pour finir, je suis sensible son look sympa, rond et rappelant vaguement les PowerMac et anciens Mac Pro. Sous cette forme, il est cool aussi bien sur, ou sous le bureau. ^.^
Notez qu’il faut dj disposer d’une bonne exprience de montage PC pour s’attaquer celui-ci qui casse pas mal de codes/habitudes et que c’est dans ce cadre averti que je recommande donc ce botier : alimentation sur l’avant+debout ; carte-mre inverse ; montage de carte graphique la vertical.
But this case is not for beginners, it can be annoying to work in. Planning your build is important because as soon as you start adding components, it’ll be next to impossible to get the ones you forgot back in, like that extremely flimsy 3 pin ARGB header.
There are also some cons to the case, build quality is awful. The case left two huge paper cuts on my fingers because they didn’t sand/file the handles down. Also when closing the case I gave the glass panel a little shove and boom, the glass side panel had shattered into 100s of pieces all inside my PC (which is why I returned it). I would also go for the bare model as the ARGB version just isnt worth it. The fans are loud and make an annoying hum noise and the color shifts are slowwww
All in all, if you’re looking to stick the maximum amount of power in a small, portable case, this might be the only option for you
Prodotto arrivato in perfette condizioni. Il case molto ben fatto (ho preso la versione bianca). Adoro il fatto che sia facilmente trasportabile tramite le maniglie e che sia compatto ma capiente. Ottimo case, consigliato se volete ridurre l’ingombro di un case grande e dare quel tocco di stile in pi al vostro pc.
j’avais la version prcdente de ce boitier j’en tais satisfait, cette version apporte des amliorations et une amlioration dans l’ergonomie. Parfait !
La torre tiene una estetica que me recuerda un poco a los Mac de hace aos. Aun as, la versin que yo compre cuenta con ARGB que le da un toque muy interesante. Respecto al montaje, para ser una torre “pequea” es bastante sencillo montar los componentes. Tiene conexiones de sobra y creo que no hace falta decir que est muy bien ventilada, basta con ver su frontal.
Muy buena experiencia con esta torre, la recomiendo.
I got the version that comes with 3 pre-installed (intake) fans on the bottom, and installed 2 more fans (exhaust) on top. A fan hub was included – a very thoughtful inclusion for the number of fans they know I’ll have for this. Unfortunately, this fan hub is powered directly from the PSU, so the fans are on max speed at all times. It is LOUD. Temperatures don’t hike that much, though.
Installation is a chore, as the layout of the innards is essentially flipped upside down to fit an ATX build inside of an ITX form. Cable management is key here.
Comes with handles. Why? Impromptu LAN party? Don’t use them – the whole case is made of cheap and flexible plastic. I would uninstall them if they didn’t provide space for the fans to access outside air.
I have yet to experiment with this, but it looks like the case can be flipped upside down for a more traditional orientation of the inside components AND the side panels could potentially be swapped to the opposite side.
Overall: not a beginner’s case. Get this only if you’re feeling quirky and know what you’re doing. Otherwise, stick to something more conventional and sturdier.
This case looks great once you’ve got it put together. I’ve only got two complaints. 1) The top magnetic clear piece isn’t fitted perfectly and moves around a bit. 2) it’s a tough case to build in (mainly because it’s small). Also it’s worth mentioning that there isn’t a way to install an optical drive in this case, which is disappointing, but understandable as discs are becoming more outdated. I transferred my PC from an old BitFenix Prodigy case to this and I’m very happy with how it turned out.
I had wanted to leave a review after I’d finished building in this case, but I’ve been stuck waiting for other components to become available for my Alder Lake DDR4 build. I’ll plan to update this review once the build is further along or complete but as there’s currently no other reviews on this product I wanted to at share some initial impressions.
I have a question on this product page asking the maximum PSU length, while also mounting a 120mm front fan. The answer was 160mm (the PSU) when removing the mounting bracket for more space. However I’m relived to say the Seasonic Prime TX-750 with crazy good AnandTech reviews, which is 170mm, will fit in the case with a 120mm front fan. The Britec09 review on YouTube was similar enough that I could tell it would fit, and I’ve confirmed it does. One thing to note however, the 25mm thick fan is flush against the PSU in this configuration, so you might give up a couple PSU outlets. In my planned configuration, those were redundant and unneeded. You can also buy 15mm thick fans.
My plan is to use this case to construct a build with all the “best parts” like titanium PSUs (less heat, less noise), and the largest CPU air coolers and GPUs; but without going overboard and burning money. This case should be able to fit all of that without much wasted space. Although there are some so-so YouTube reviews regarding thermals (they didn’t use the front fan at all…), I can’t understand how it wouldn’t be cool, since this is a relatively open case, albeit with some internal bends. I’m feeling confident that the case is open enough and can fit enough NF-A12x25 fans into it, that it’s going to be fine, if not really really good.
Part of the reason I bought this case is I want to put in (wait for it) FOUR-POINT-THREE slot RTX 3070 Noctua-edition. It should fit and breath form outside with a small gap between the open top panel. Honestly, I think any other lone GPU in this case is going to look odd, with lots of open room at the top. I am a little concern however I won’t be able to get the PSU cables where they need to go, but we will see; I think there will be options.
Speculation aside, the case I have received is surprisingly lightweight and simple. Colors match. The glass panel seems sturdy. Mesh front (yeah! no dated drive port). It’s what it needs to be and nothing more, perfect. I was hesitant on all white, but I think it’s going to be good even if I can’t find black panels later to make it Stormtrooper colored. I’ve taken off then handles, as recommended while building to avoid scratches. It’s pretty bare bones once the sides and handles are off, but I like it.
I’ve never built in a case with magnetic dust filters (last build was .. awhile ago), and I’m not quite sure what to expect from a dust filter, but the top filter does seem a little less impeded than the front not-magnetic filter, just from site. So I hope it works. It’s probably normal, and I’m hoping positive pressure keeps the dust out too.
I will say, having the case IO on the side is going to be a little awkward. It limits where you can put the completed build. E.g. if next to a couch, on its side under a TV, or against a wall. I’m going to have to choose between being able to reach the button and being able to see my pretty computer parts behind glass.
It came with just one 120mm fan. Good! (and an adorable little 60mm fan, very thin too) I really don’t want fans to come with cases. So that it’s this few is awesome. They add expense and I’m going to replace them anyway. One thing that’s maybe not obvious: You *can* have a 120mm front fan *and* a 60mm front fan at the same time, but I don’t think I want little fans even if they’re nice fans, so I probably wont do that.
Anyway, I’m super excited to build in this thing an post some photos; but until I can find a decent DDR4 z690 MATX board, and and that thicc Noctua GPU, this is it (for low latency, DDR4 is currently more mature than DDR5).
