Good case and satisfied in general, but it's a pity not to be able to put an AiO watercooling on the top side
Good product in general with good finishes and good equipment.
Well designed for the cable management with many passages, scratch pads and enough space between the door and the back of the wall.
I regret however the little space available above the motherboard under the ceiling plate: you can just install 2 fans, but the watercooling radiator doesn't fit, I had to put mine in the front.Pro
- Good finishings
- Great for the cable management
- The aRGB manager makes it easy to connect the fans
- 3 aRGB fans
- perforated power supply cover for good ventilation
Contra
- not enough space to install an AiO watercooling on top
- 3-pin fans, no 4-pin PWM for speed management
- a 4th fan in extraction on the rear panel would have been welcome
Would recommend to others.
From quality like a Phanteks P300 but with 3 fans in front. The front is grid-shaped and also has dust filter function. This makes front open and has very good airflow.
Pro
- Good air flow
- RGB fan very quiet
- Glass side window
Contra
- No fans in the back
- Cable management could be better
- Only 16 cm Cpu cooler height
Super casing
Very good enclosure with a very quiet fan. The cable management is excellent. The sheet thickness at the rear fan mounting is wafer thin, (compared to the Enthoo Pro). Only the gods and Phanteks know why there is no fan in the back. If you install a fan in the back, in my case an Arctic P12 PWM, the temperature drops by over 10 degrees.
Pro
- Very quiet and powerful fans
- Generous space for cable management with ribbon cable
- Cable bushings in the right place
- Airflow
- Very Chic
Contra
- No fan at the rear
- Sheet thickness at the rear like paper and could be bent by the air pressure of the front fans
10/10 would smash again
What can I say? Its a great case! Got everything you'd expect from a premium case, very easy to build inside, and now I'm just repeating myself from the pros but yeah, just fuckin buy it.
Pro
- Great airflow
- Dust filters are removable and easily cleaned
- Very quiet included fans
- Tons of space to hide my terrible cable management behind the panel
- Comes with zip ties
- Lots of cutouts for cable management
- Very good value for money
- Easy to build in
Contra
- I really am nitpicking but the rear side panel is a bit hard to remove but who cares right?

Cools really well but...
Unfortunately if you install an AIO you lose the possibility to put 4 additional hard disks. I don't know yet if this also compromises the 2 hard drives hidden under the plate.
However, if you are looking for a case that can cool your components well. It's a piece of cake. I personally lost 10°C on my CPU overclocker without changing anything else. Well, I have 2 fans out. One at the back and one at the top.
I strongly recommendPro

Good, but I ordered the wrong model.
I accidentally chose the wrong 'color', and that means that my case had no fans. My mistake, Digitec could have described it better though.
Pro
- Good airflow.
Contra
- Almost too small for the Nvidia 3000 cards.

Good quality case, loads of airflow, loads of space
Loads of air intakes, but when looking through the side window after 2-3 months of use there is quite a lot of dust visible already. Swings and roundabouts I guess.
I'd buy again.Pro

- Cable management
- build quality
- Included 3 fans and fan LEDs
Contra
- Dust seen inside after 3 months use
Great Case
Pro
- lots of openings for fan placement and good cooling

Super Airflow
Very good case. Despite good airflow very quiet. Plenty of space for cable management. The gap between the bottom of the case and the cover over the PSU is very tight, I almost couldn't get my PSU in.
Pro
- Airflow
- Cable management
- Price
- Noise level
Contra
- Few fans included
- Opening to PSU compartment very narrow

Good product, but disappointed during assembly
Unfortunately, I discovered with horror during the assembly that it is impossible to put a 360mm ventirad on the front panel without having to remove the HDD cage, something that is not specified in the product description (a negative point). So I end up with a bunch of cables at the back of the case.
But generally speaking, I'm very happy with the case, but I regret a bit to have taken this model and not another one after my recent and sad discoveries...Pro

Super enclosure that keeps the PC really cool
A super enclosure, which also has a nice illumination of the fans at the front. It is very spacious, even the longest graphics cards have room in it. The PC stays very cool, even during longer gaming sessions with high load. The cable management can be done wonderfully, the built-in Velcro fasteners help a lot. I was also impressed by the slots for the SSD and HDD hard disks. The hard drives are easy to install and fairly easy to replace.
Unfortunately, due to the fans at the front, it is not possible to install a drive (not so tragic, but a point to mention). Unfortunately, the lighting can only be controlled via the buttons on the case and not via the PC.
All in all, an elegant, beautifully illuminated case.
Pro
- Air circulation
- Spaciousness
- Fan lighting
- SSD/HDD slots are wonderful to install
- Cable management
- Dust filter top, bottom and front
Contra
- You cannot install a drive
- The lighting cannot be controlled via the PC
Very beautiful optics
Pro
- 3rgb fan
- Very good processing
- Good wiring possibility
Contra

A really successful housing
It is an enclosure that is worth its price.
I did a parallel build with a 50. enclosure of a similar design. With Phanteks, you don't just pay more, you really get more.Pro
- Good airflow
- Quiet fan
- Enough space for cables
- Well processed

Good value for money
Not great quality but does the job. Plan to buy a controller for the leds which revert to the original configuration after each start.
this case is good for making a small gamer pc
very good box

Worth the money
Very good for the price, top workmanship and looks very classy.
Not a bad case for the price if you can handle the design
The case is quite nice and good to build inside only the construction is not too high quality the mesh has a slight dent inside. And be careful with the height of the cpu fan, it's not 16 cm anymore.
Goos but
Great case but the back panel is really annoying to put back it and rarely lines up unless someone else helps me.
Pro
- Aesthetic
- solid
Contra
- back panel annoying
No room for water cooling
