Are there any parts constraints with this case? GPU or AIO cooler?

I laughed at the massive cooling potential. I have a Corsair 7000 - that has massive cooling potential with 3x 360 or 2x420mm rads or space for 4x120mm fans in places. My Bequiet 500DX has space for 1x360mm in the front and maybe a 240mm - 280mm rad on top (not sure about 360). Depends on the thickness of the radiator and your motherboard - mine conflicted with an arctic aio which is thicker. That's cheaper than this case when it's on sale (bought mine for $90 few years back) and looks better imo.

Just build a mATX rig, best case I found was a Core V21. Good price point ($69 typ), small enough to fit into a ikea kallax cube, great airflow. A little less flash, but i'll take that over the higher utility (though that white 280x is banging!)

I have the full size version of this case and I really like it.

However, the LL fans have terrible longevity. Seriously, STAY AWAY!

I had 6 of them in my build and within 2 years the LEDs on 4 of the 6 fans failed.

One of them was within Amazon's return period and they replaced it. The others were all replaced by Corsair under warranty. That being said, a couple of the replacements are now starting to show issues with the LEDs.

I have the bigger white version the 680x from Corsair. It's an excellent case but after a year the power button broke and it's annoying to have to start it now unless I leave it on 24/7 lol. Not sure how Corsair is with their warranty but looks like some people are having similar issue on their 680x.

Can't say much if this one but I am certain it prob uses similar parts on a smaller size.

Did your power button failed on your 680x?

$110 for a mATX case that can only hold 2 3.5" drives is a terrible deal. There are plenty of $50 cases that do everything that this case does, and in a better form factor. Thumbs down.
It's almost like cases can be designed and purchased for different use-cases?!

Your example is about 2 1/2 inches too tall for where I put my HTPC build, wouldn't fit. I also prefer the separate psu chamber design for my systems, and it shortens them. Lastly, I'm not a user who needs more than 2 3.5" drives.

This case has server me wonderfully for the past 2+ years, and $110 is a great price.

edit: only complaint is that my EVGA 3080 FTW3 won't fit unless I do some funky fan stuff. so if you want a big big card this case won't do. totally fine with a 3070 fe tho

Why does the front Air take system hiding behind the glass? That makes no sense, that should be an open mesh intake

But RBG fans adds 20% to the FPS experience on CoD!

Don't get me started on RGB power supply cables, allows me to auto aim in CoD…
I got this case few years ago and it has plenty of room for multiple SSD + NVME slots on my MB. The thermal and RGB designs of this is awesome. BTW who one uses 3.5" spindle HDD nowadays?

The front air intake gets air from the up, left, and bottom side of the glass with plenty of room for both fans to pump air to the inside with filters.

I got the Phanteks P400a for my Plex server. It has 2 internal bays in the base near the power supply, and slots to add 4 trays that hold an hdd/ssd for a total of 6.
$109 on Amazon rn. Drive trays are more expensive than they should be but they'll sit rignt in front of the front fans and have plenty of air to keep em' cool.

Just got a Phanteks g500a and really like it. Better cable management than Torrent, and competitive gpu/cpu cooling performance. Both have pros and cons.

Had a. Corsair carbide air 540 and it is still a great design to this day.

I just threw in a 14tb one into my mini itx Corsair 250D case.... Great way to dumb seldom accessed data into.

The other 3 SATA ports are SSDs plus the m.2 behind the mobo... 2016 build going strong.

I'm eyeing this case because mine fits everything I need but it's always hard to upgrade things especially the m.2 on the underside because technically the gtx 1080 in it is too long really difficult to remove.

I'm all set now but if I wanted to upgrade the GPU it will be hard to find one that fits the 250D.

Nope, use the power button every day for the last couple years and no issues.

Informative, detailed review of this case [youtube.com].

Really a restrictive case is the takeaway.
I built my daughters PC in this case and it is a really nice looking case with terrible airflow. I was able to get around it by lifting the case higher off the desk so the bottom fans can keep the GPU cool. I offered to move her build to a new case with better airflow but she loves the case and has used it for a couple of years now.
