This is a very interesting case. GPU in FRONT, vertical mount, 3 sets of intake fans on the side and 3 sets of exhaust fans on the side. Strange, but cool.
I did my recent rebuild in this case. Personally I love it, but it's definitely unorthodox. I'd recommend that you have a decent sized GPU otherwise the front of the case looks weird and there's actually a chance that the top bracket won't go all the way down to make a ridged connection to the GPU. The included fans on the side of the case are also kinda jank proprietary Lian Li fans that you can't get anywhere other than in this case. One of them quickly developed a rattle for me. I replaced them with 3x P28s and much better but more expense. Also put a P28 on the optional bracket on the back.
This is a smoking' hot deal imo. It's not some ancient design that is being retired. This is a modern case, stronger than it looks, and it works fairly well, especially if you pull the front gpu filter or swap fans. Even the rgb (which I usually dislike) is tastefully done.
As Sulla52 mentioned above, it supports HUGE gpus, but do make sure you aren't using a video card that is too small or else you'll have to MacGyver your way to full rigidity. Note that your gou cabling will exit into the bottom hdd/psu compartment, and then run the length of the case to exit a grommet at the rear. You'll perhaps want a longer cable than normal. That video output cable will also likely block one or both hdd brackets if that matters to you.
I purchased this case and thought it was decent for 129. Better for 100. I used an sfx psu and realized the cables ran too short. I don't like the DP cable having to flex so tightly with the hard drive cage. The front panel connector is appreciated. Wished the argb connector had a splitter to add additional fans as opposed to terminating. I did have to return it as I experienced a short once assembled.

Jayztwocents did an excellent review of the ins and outs, check out the FLIR and smoke testing here for hit spots and airflow -
