This case made for a very comfortable build. Roomy with plenty of space even for large air coolers & long GPUs. While that does make for a particularly large case, I think it's well worth it. The placement of the PSU can make fan connections tricky if you plan to replace or supplement the included fans, so I'd recommend being aware of that before purchasing as you may need additional extensions. The integrated cable management solutions in this case are very intuitive and well thought-out - there's plenty of room for everything, even more so when using a smaller (size-wise) PSU as that leaves plenty of room within the PSU bay to conceal cables. While I typically rely on additional cable management solutions like cable ties and velcro, there wasn't any need to add anything not already built into the case. In my opinion, you can definitely notice the difference between this case and lower end options. All panels are quick and easy to remove, but simultaneously don't feel loose or at risk of dislocating while moving the PC. The outside has a powder coating-esque feel to it which elevates even the parts of the build that are made from plastic. The fans are quiet and move a lot of air, and the cooling performance is great even with chips that are known to run hot. The RGB is nice and bright, but not to an overpowering level, and the colors are relatively accurate. Overall, I'd recommend this case despite it being quite the investment. It leaves plenty of room for future upgrades and will likely last you several builds, so if you enjoy the visuals and can stomach the price tag I'd definitely recommend picking it up. Read more

Pros: - The airflow is very efficient, and you don't need an exhaust fan. Keeps a 4090 very cool during resource intensive tasks. - Air is vented only in the back. Very useful for controlling where the hot air will go, allowing for me to vent it directly outside - High quality fans capable of moving a lot of air with little power - PSU on the top, allowing more efficient air pulling from the bottom - Very easy to build - Fits a 4090 perfectly. Power cord isn't even touching the glass Cons: - Far too expensive. - GPU holder isn't customizable enough. Wasn't able to use it with my 4090 due to the dimensions of it - HUGE CASE. Wasn't expecting this large of a case given it's a mid tower - I wish there was latches, or something more secure holding the panels together. All you've got is hidden screws to better secure the sides, which are tedious to remove - No USB 2.0 slots on the case. I prefer cases with 2 3.0's and 2 2.0's All in all, it's a 5 star case. May be a lot of cons, but compared to other cases it's a whole different animal. Very rare to see top mounted PSU's, but here we are. It's also a very heavy case which helps balance the top heavy PSU Read more

I purchased this case because I love the look of Fractal cases, and this one had a much better shipping timeline - seems like most other models estimate months for arrival. I also needed a case which supports E-ATX motherboards, and this one says it does. I can confirm that it... mostly does. Obviously it mounts just fine - the issues I ran into came when I was starting to hook everything up and do cable management. The passthrough holes for cables which are intended to be just to the right of the motherboard (where the massive ATX power cable needs to pass) are completely covered by the expanded E-ATX board size, and there are not additional holes provided in the wider configuration. When I got to the SATA cables I needed to place, I ended up getting the Dremel out and making my own pass throughs - not something I enjoyed doing to such a beautiful case. I'm not sure if this is a standard, but the spacing of the 2.5" drive mounts is slighly too spread out - the power cable that came with my Corsair PSU for SATA is stretched to the point of stressing the drives and I plan to install small extensions to relieve that - which will render the cable manemgent a nightmare. An alternative could be including a SATA power extension with the 4 plugs on it which are both spaced just right and ideally wired in the "vertical" dimension as dictated by the drive layout. The only other major issue I have with the case is handles - there is no good way to grab this thing even for positional adjustments - let alone moving it. And with such a big case, there is likelihood it is loaded up. My rig has a bit of liquid cooling, 1200W PSU, maxed out drives, and a big GPU. My first attempt at grabbing the case revealed that natural "grab" points are just plastic facade. A couple strategic metal connections could really improve the handling options. It's okay when the panels are off during a build, but once assembled the only option seems to be to pick up from the bottom every time. Read more

Amazing case, some of the best temps you can get. It's easy to build in with tons of space and it looks nice, especially in white. This is an air flow king, if you're using an AIO I'd recommend a different case. The best case I've owned by far, the 180mm fans are nuts. Highly recommend if going for an air cooled CPU build.

This is my favorite case to have built in. It's aesthetically beautiful, the airflow is phenomenal, the build quality is very high and the layout is nice. I bought it for the airflow, but love everything else about it. Like any PC chassis, it's worth waiting for sales if you can. This one offered the best build experience I've had yet. Read more
