You would think that with 4x 140mm fans, this case would perform OK but based on this review, thermals were terrible. At 100% fan speed, CPU and GPU temps were BOTH above 70 degrees C.

like the Phanteks cases the top and bottom bevels are there and there's probably 3/4" to 1" of gap between the facscia and intake so these aren't submarine hulls.

Hmm, he did put a 280W GPU and an overclocked CPU (who knows at what voltage, he didn't specify) in to a $60 case and ran them both at a synthetic 100% load. The 3600x doesn't normally run at 4.4Ghz on all cores. I don't believe that's a good test for a case meant more for a budget build. I am sure this will be fine for your average user, and you can replace the fans for better ones down the line if you don't have the money now for a better case up front.

Interesting, because this review: https://www.techpowerup.com/revie...x-chassis/

came to a totally different conclusion. And has actual charts comparing it to other cases, where it performs reasonably well.​

I was going to mention the product link being busted, but it looks like Newegg is having some kind of server/service problems currently.
