    Top value for money

    A very compact case that accepts the ATX CM without being cramped is great, plus it's good quality and everything is easy to install and connect. If you're looking for a good box that's not too expensive, this is the one for you. The only drawback is that the power supply is installed behind the front panel and the switch is not accessible.

    Very nice case

    I really like this box, which has several qualities. Easy to assemble, especially if you're a fan of cable management! The only fault I can find with it is that the airflow is quickly limited due to the rather original position of the power supply! Before ordering, make sure everything will fit!

    2 annoying points

    I ordered this box mainly for its unusual look (square format) and the elegance of its design.
    Unfortunately, the photo is actually flattering: it's not a rigid front panel with a printed/engraved pattern, but some kind of soft plastic grid with a magnet. So in terms of ventilation, it's better (the plastic has micro-holes), but in terms of looks... The same goes for the finish.
    On the other hand, it's worth noting that the back of the tower doesn't reveal access to the rear of the power supply: it's impossible to cut the power supply using the switch... not essential (a cable in the case does the job), but surprising.

    All in all, it's a box that does the job, with an 'average' finish, but if I'd known I'd have spent a few euros more for something more elegant.

    Quick delivery

    Satisfied with the box.
    Good value for money.
    Nice design.
    Curious about the power supply unit, which is inside and connected by a cable.
