Ooh, absolutely right. Newegg changed either the referral link or the item page to show a different product. This is a "DIYPC DIY-CUBE01-BK". The last deal was for ARGB-Q01-Bk (still available! ...for a mere $120)


Newegg, why am I not surprised you're doing this?

Makes sense. The fans that used to come with the case had issues:
- ARGB set with case button would never stay for mor than ten seconds, and then it would just start cycling through every mode and color non-stop.
- Side fans were always installe dbackwards. (All fans were exhaust)
- Fans weren't anything special. Lots of reviews said they suck.

Bonus: The cases look nice, but are ok at best. Thin metal. The screws that hold the glass are ugly af and they strip the anchors easily.

POV: I've had 4 of these cases.

Heads up, if you have a full-size (9.7" x 9.7") mATX board, it will hang out past the front fans. If you have a narrow/short mATX board (A320m/A520m, Chinese X99, etc), this is a great case for the price.

I'd rather pay $52 without fans and put in something decent (like the Thermalright C12C-S 3-pack for $13) than pay $60-65 for the Q01 with the crappy molex centipede ARGB fans that are fixed speed and can't hold a single color/pattern (always cycling) with their built-in ARGB controller.

White is also available for $54.91.

I just bought one of those microcenter pre-builts and it came in this case (or at least, it's damn near similar).

At first I was apprehensive to deviate from the normal sized stuff...but this cube is so much SMALLER and yet feels like everything fits in there perfectly and has so much space.

this one, but with the 13900kf instead
