Great casing, good quality for the price, the shutters can be removed without tools. Beware of dust, there is only one anti-dust filter supplied.
Well thought-out tower with screws and cable ties supplied. You don't need a screwdriver to remove the panels, it's strong and high quality. The filter underneath is magnetised, so it's easy to remove for cleaning.
I'll have to wait and see about the dust, my old tower had mesh and it filtered quite well.
Excellent case, very solid appearance, very neutral design that goes everywhere.
It's hard to find a micro ATX case for multimedia and office use without glass on the side.
This case has everything I wanted.
Well ventilated with its multiple holes (I added three fans because of my configuration, which heats up), easy assembly inside, the dust filter is magnetised and the various connectors are on the front panel.
It's a good, well-ventilated case, built mainly of metal (probably steel).
Only the feet are plastic.
On the other hand, the panels are attached with plastic clips (there are one or two spares) but it would have been much better to have had screws.
Also, you have to be careful not to spill water on the case, because if you do, everything will leak onto the electronics...
Similarly, the case is designed for water cooling, so there's a lot of space in the upper part of the case which is useless unless you use water cooling, which is perfectly useless in such a case as all the heat comes out directly...
In the end, it's still a good case that's highly optimised for extracting heat passively, and in fact I put in a gaming configuration with a Ryzen 9 7945 pro and an RX 6700 xt. The system doesn't exceed 70°C despite the fact that there's only one fan at the bottom of the case, which blows cool air over the graphics card.
Despite the comment that may seem positive, I think there are very probably similar cases that are cheaper and meet the specifications, or that are of better quality, so don't hesitate to compare with others.
Without doubt one of the best mATX enclosures: somewhere between a mini-tower and a classic mid-tower, top build quality and, above all, everything designed to make assembly and maintenance easier (magnetic panels, scratch pads, cable management bundle, anti-vibration mount and so on).
Points to bear in mind:
- As the power supply is on the front and therefore inaccessible, the case doesn't have a mains switch (you'll have to open the top panel).
- As the case is mesh, it's easier to hear the fans (which the TG version seems to reduce).
- Beware also of the size of the components, even though I had no problem with a Noctua D15 (a monster) and an almost 3 Slot GPU measuring 330mm (max 338); all of these fit on the edge but are not in the way.
