Review: Lian li at it's best - This case is pretty sweet, honestly. I'm really digging the minimalist aesthetic they went for. It's surprisingly spacious inside, which makes building a breeze. Plus, the airflow seems to be solid so far. Definitely a solid choice if you're looking for a clean build.
Review: A great mATX case - Looks: I’m my opinion, this is the one of the best looking mATX cases on the market. I’m not big on LEDs and prefer subtle looks and this case nails that. Compatibility: The case is surprisingly roomy, however, if you’re fitting high end parts in here be prepared for a fight. It’s a bit fiddly getting the PSU mount in the right place and it took a lot of trail and error to fit everything in. For reference, I’m running a RTX 5080, Ryzen 7 9800x3D and a 360mm liquid cooler. I did have to swap out the fans on the CPU cooler to slimline ones though and I would also suggest running these throughout the build to save space. Noise: The case is surprisingly quiet, sometimes I can’t even tell whether my PC is on or not and it’s sat on the desk right next to me! Airflow: For my needs the airflow is more than adequate, I’m not going to be overclocking and the temperatures are very good, much better than my old setup. Functionality: While it’s not the smallest case on the market (and certainly not console level) I think it’s the perfect size and very light and easy to move around. I will be sticking with mATX in the future.

Very well constructed case. Excellent access for build with multiple positions for fans. Wood front looks very nice. Worth noting case comes without fans and has no power indicator light.
