In general this case is great. It’s easy to put together and very sturdy. That being said, my 6800xt Red Devil had to be shifted from it’s prime location as it interfered with my full size psu, which itself was interfering with my 280mm water radiator. It all fitted in the end & I’m very happy with how it turned out. Just be warned, space is at a premium & a small form factor psu is potentially a great idea if your building a new PC.
Mi sono divertito un sacco ad assemblare questo case, un risultato che mi ha lasciato pienamente soddisfatto.
Ci sono tre modalit di assemblaggio con le relative istruzioni.,il case alla fine risulta resistente e compatto.
Trs facile monter. Il est mme plus facile d’installer le PC dedans qu’avec un boitier traditionnel car les cots du boitier sont mis en place les uns aprs les autres autour de la carte-mre. Il n’est donc pas ncessaire de se contorsionner pour brancher les connecteurs l’intrieur d’un boitier presque ferm.
Au rsultat c’est un tout petit boitier, transportable grce sa poigne et finalement plutt joli. Question temprature, il est plein de trous, donc ce n’est pas lui qui va limiter le flux d’air. En revanche, il ne va pas limiter le bruit.
J’ai not un dfaut : les trous de fixation des disques dur 3.5″ ne sont pas correctement espacs pour les gros disques actuels, ce qui est un peu dommage. Mon 18 To tient donc avec des tyrap (fournis d’ailleurs), mais ce n’est pas trs grave. Il tient bien est est amorti grce aux patins en caoutchouc fournis.
Autrement, il n’y a pas de reset (inutile de toute faons puisqu’un appui prolong sur le bouton d’alim fait la mme chose), ni de buzzer (rajout sur la CM, a vaut rien, mme chez Amazon)
Pour celui-l, j’y ai mis un PC refroidi avec un gros Noctua. Le prochain sera watercool.
With so many holes everywhere of varying size, it can be a little tricky to see what is for the screws provided with the specific config you are going for.
Apart from the motherboard screws and stand offs. The screws are all the same, which makes things considerably easier.
The dust cover panels, or the panels that contain the dust covers, you really need a knife or something thin to pry off, even my slender fingers found it hard to pry it off without a tool.
Having said that. Nice case, like the options, following along with a instructional video very much recommended, only needed one type of screwdriver head for the whole assembly.
Case is smaller than my corsair 4000d, which i wanted, but still big enough for my big current gen gpu.
I used SFX-L psu, also recommended if you have a big gpu, as the gpu cables will come out southwards towards the end of your gpu, if using the standard layout.
Looking forward to buying another handle accessory to add to the case when they are made available.
