Disappointing
I was exited getting this case originally following reviews and how it looks. I still think it's a beautiful and premium case but i came across too many issues while building and after it was build issues followed.Positives:-Spacious case-Can mount cpu liquid cooler radiator in a tray on top-Case has some LED lights (not rgb)-Silent with fan speed controller on the front of the caseNegatives:-Mounting cpu liquid cooler on top tray is easy but unless you have very simple ram sticks on the motherboard, it will hit them and you won't be able to install radiator properly with fans-The case gets very hot, even with various fans installed it's not open enough in places for the heat to exit-There's a nice cover at the bottom of the case covering psu and cables to make your case look tidy and clean but cables do need to go through there for the motherboard and gpu. So it remains open making case not looking as neat.I really hoped this case would work for me but due to overheating and not being able to use the top radiator tray, I cannot recommend it.

Great Case
I really really like this case. The looks alone are really great and the LED strip around the front is a nice touch and is not too over the top like on a case that I had previously. The tempered glass side panel is great as well and obviously, I love seeing the inside of my case.My only issues with the case are that I am not entirely sure how good the airflow is from the top as there doesn't look like there are a lot of places to draw air from. It is also very expensive if you couldn't already see, and for the price, I expected to receive at least 2 Silent Wings fans but it in fact only comes with 1 but the fan is brilliant at least.

Extreme cooling problems
Extreme cooling problemsI purchased this case because of the build quality, stylish looks and the ability to customise the interior layout. I was aware that they may be some restricted air flow problems due to the limited intake and exhaust vents, but I shocked how bad the air flow was.I have a water cooled dual system, CPU and GPU with 1 x 360 radiator and 1 x 280 radiator. Unfortunately, the operating temperatures where far to high in idle and light gaming conditions that the system was verging on been unstable and I was not able to overclock the CPU or GPU safely due to the CPU throttling and system shut down. To overcome this problem, I have installed two 240mm fan filters, one on the top panel and one on the front panel. I can now operate the system with safe temperatures even when overclocked.I would recommend this case but only for normal light duties but not for gaming

Top case
Case is fantastic, owned a fair few over the years but this is by far the best yet, excellent air flow and temps if you add an extra 140mm fan in the front, you can also fit 140/280 Aio radiator up top with low profile memory.. witch it never mentions.. my only gripe is with the supplier Okluge.. case didn’t seem brand new to me as there was no peel on the tempered glass and box accessory’s were all lose.. just makes me think this case had been used or sent back.. might be wrong.. but happy with the case in general

Get extra fans for good cooling!
Fantastic good looking case. To make it better get another two SW3 fans.

Great case
Excellent case. The only issue I had with mine was that half the front LEDs stopped working

THE WIRING IS TO THIN.
About this Be Quiet 23 (coped from his Big Brother } 1.the wiring is too thin 2. the circlet board should in my opining be covered 3. Remember this a big case for a MID if you have to move it about its lumpy not sure about the glass panel over all this is a good case But the other thing is the price is a bit high for me.

Amazing looks, spacious, easy to organise
Loads of USBs and have USB-C. Has fan control support on the case. Very spacious and the glass is amazing. The fans that are pre-installed are also dead silent even under load. Only drawback is no full rgb control, which seems odd?
